Contarex to Leica M adaptor

[dunk]

I've seen a Contarex to M adaptor listed on Ebay and am wondering if anyone has tried one and if it gives infinity focus?

Cheers

I've never tried a Contarex adapter, but the flange to film distance of the Leica M is much smaller than that of the Contarex. Making one for infinity focus should be easy.

Does it advertise RF coupling, or is it scale focus?

This is the Contarex to M adaptor listed on Italian Ebay

I don't know if it is rangefinder coupled.

The same vendor also lists a 4/3 adaptor .



This is another vendor's 4/3 adaptor which I may decide to buy.

This looks like a scale focus adapter.
