Useless adapter, costs 1/50th the cost of a Leica adapter but costs less

Adapter *not* what you need. My copy of this Fotasy LM-LL adapter is more than useless. I have used it with several Leica M mount lenses such as the 50mm Summilux, 30mm Summicron, Zeiss 35mm Biogon and others. I wasted a lot of time and space on the SD card. Hours of capturing and importing images are wasted. This adapter cannot produce sharp images when focusing at or near infinity. I thought my CL camera or lenses were bad until I tried a simple test. A carefully focused shot of a framed photo about 20ft away with my old 50mm Summicron folding lens mounted on a CL body with a Fotasy adapter and a shot with the same lens mounted on an M240 body is mounted. The result was a blurry, fuzzy, useless image of the fitted lens compared to a sharp, beautiful image of the same lens on the M240's body. Conclusion: The adapter is unusable.

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Uncertain
