The T adapter was made by Tamron in the fifties to do the same thing. However, unlike the T4, the T was picked up by telescope manufacturers and other lens makers to adapt lenses to camera bodies. T adapters are plentiful, cheap, and quite useful; T4 adapters are relatively uncommon, useful only for adapting relatively bad lenses to a lot of cameras not made today, and therefore pretty useless. :) Don dorysrus@mindspring.com -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+dorysrus=mindspring.com@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+dorysrus=mindspring.com@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Thinkofcole@aol.com Sent: Sunday, March 06, 2005 4:31 PM To: lug@leica-users.org Subject: [Leica] OT-Question on Canon Digital Rebel Many thanks, Don & Doug for solving that problem... Here's my other problem: What is the difference between a T4 adapter and a Universal T adapter? I can't find anywhere on the Internet any detailed explanation of what these various T-style adapters are designed to do... tia, regards, bob cole _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
