Guys,  I want to mount Leica m39 screw mount lenses to my Nikon bellows.  Anybody got one kicking around their junk drawers that they might want to sell or loan for awhile?

Thanks!

No :( Do they exist? I thought the distance from the mount to the film was typically less for RF cameras.

They do, John, I used to have one.  I need it to mount an enlarging lens on Nikon bellows.

I can get them out of China/ebay easy, but I'd rather send a check to an AC member.

just curious what lens you gonna use? I own a film camera with LTM 39 lens.  As for adapters on the ebay it seems like the quality is not that bad at all. You may want to try other sites like rangefinderforum.com or similar for the advice.

A 105 Componon, maybe a 90 Fujinon, or a 135/150 Componon if I can scrounge one.  I may adapt an old Nikon T-mount.
