I have no personal experience with the Chinese examples. I do have some CV
adaptors. I recommend investing in those. Maybe you can
find a used example. Since its for the wide wides, what frames it brings up
won't be relevant. Might also mean that a cheaper
non-voigtlander example would be perfectly OK for that job. It's not like
you couldn't afford a small focus error.
=================================
Hoppy, IMO the back-focus is more critical on the short focal length lenses
than the long ones.  Depth of field is greater, of course, but a small focus
error may mean you couldn't quite focus at infinity.  I don't know how big a
problem this would be on, say, a 12mm.
