You are, of course correct.  As far as I know, there are no adapters outside of LTMs that allow focusing.  

I had a similar adapter for Canon mount to LTM, then I put that on a LTM>M adaptor. I usta use a Vivitar 19mm 3.8 in it, before I got the Voigtländer 15mm.

The one Tina owns was designed for Leicina movie camera.  Leica made others for this camera.

Yes, but I sincerely doubt that it would focus thru the RF.  Good for the 19mm
und so weiter
