  1. #1 Anyone making a dumb mount for Exakta mount lenses? 
    ANyone making an Exakta mount? I have inherited a batch of nice lenses, and while MFT mount adapters abound, the rear barrel and Flange depth is going ot make an adapter for nikon or pl a big deal...
    Or.. I have heard rumour of Exakta (35mm format) to Oct-19 adapters from film applications.. in case anyone former Eastern block has that...


    thanks..

    yes, but many of my lenses have the auto "plunger" on the side of the mount. considering asking the "how about changing the mount" question.. to which I expec the answer to be... Cubic money, custom engineering, or a refusal..
    though if I can get my hands on some trashed kilfitt makros in arri mount, I may be able to rob parts from them to convert these...
    though if Allstar made an exakta mount I'd be set..
