I'd love to adapt them to my Sony mirrorless E-mount.

My adaption allows me to use ALL f-stops, f2 to f22. <br /><br />I have on order a auto-100 body w/ another 53mm/f2 lens, and a exacta MFT adapter. I plan to remove the exacta part and mount the Topcon camera mount in its place. I plan to use if for close up photography, so infinity focus is not important. <br /><br />BTW I had made an adapter using plastic, got a couple great shots, one in 3D before it broke....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4577546745078520453.post-45702333793604624132015-03-17T16:26:22.248-04:002015-03-17T16:26:22.248-04:00I made 14 UV Topcon to m42 adapters, keep two to c...I made 14 UV Topcon to m42 adapters, keep two to convert my lenses to standard 42 mount. Sold 12 on ebay to share with Topcon fans. People are very happy to use them. I created a group in flickr, for people exchange their experience of UV lenses.

Perhaps they should use plastic screws.Lens Bubblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06445561503570800312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4577546745078520453.post-47268141528061177992013-04-10T15:05:33.762-04:002013-04-10T15:05:33.762-04:00Hi,

They are probably not worth buying for conversion, unless, you can get it for next to nothing, or already own them. Nothing pains me more to see lenses around me that I can't use :)Lens Bubblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06445561503570800312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4577546745078520453.post-52474534352665463062013-04-09T10:53:52.015-04:002013-04-09T10:53:52.015-04:00Well done!

But I know that you like the challenge and then the pleasure of seeing the results of your efforts.<br />Nice to see that you're putting pictures of your featured lenses on the posts too.<br /><br />GaryBnoreply@blogger.com
