Martin,
  Could you clarify what a LTM mount is.  I am very curious about what 
I've got. I know little about the particulars of leitz lens design or 
mount types. This i can tell you-  the lens i own, is not a screw mount 
lens with an adapter. So what exactly is a LTM-mount? I have some 
pictures of the lens if you are interested. 
TIA, Chris.
