Re: [Leica] Bayonet - screw adaptor question

[Kip Babington <cbabing3@swbell.net>]

The older style rear lens caps for M lenses had 3 nubs on the back of the cap
that engage cutouts in the screw adapters.  Makes it real simple to put one
of the adapters on  the camera or remove it without it being attached to a
lens.

Cheers,
Kip
