Luis,

There are 3 different adapters required to see all the M6 standard  
framelines.

28/90, 35/135, and 50/70. I believe Voightlander makes all 3 as well  
as the older, more expensive Leica adapters.

I have the Elmar 3.5/5cm lens and the 5cm Leica adapter. It works  
just fine for me. The focusing level doesn't touch the adapter. I  
also have a Voightlander 28/90 adapter and with the Elmar it also  
works fine. No touching. Of course it only brings up the 28/90  
frameline. Could you have a different Elmar? My Elmar is the old  
style with f stop markings of 3.5, 4.5, 6.3, 9, 12.5, and 18.

Merry Christmas,
Len
