...the list prices will be as follows:

Yes, but that doesn't work quite as the OP was expecting... it places a ground glass plastic screen in the film plane, and then uses a small camera to photograph that from the rear. The approach ...

That's true of many crowdfunded projects, but it seems that earlier versions of this one have actually shipped to backers.

There's some information on a DIY method in this thread: https://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/4120025

Your OM to FX adapter may be slightly too short, which would cause the problem you describe. This is very common. Search for the procedure to add shims inside the adapter.

No, that adapter is only for lenses with an aperture ring such as AI, AF and AFD types. At least some of yours don't have one, so you'll need an adapter which has its own. These are usually ...

I haven't seen any such adapters yet, but there are tripod collars available for the (standard) Canon adapter, like this one: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/iShoot-Metal-Tripod-Mount-Ring-Lens-Collar-f ...

Minolta D and Sony A-mount lenses certainly encoded the distance, but is this information transferred via the LA-EA adapters to E-mount bodies? Dunno. The same applies to Nikon AFD lenses on the ...

For strips of 35mm film there's this one:

Indeed. I notice that this lens has an electronic diaphragm, though. I wonder if there's a technical reason why MFT lenses can't have a manual (mechanical) diaphragm and electrical contacts? ...

Yes, looks like it. C-mount should be a 25mm thread. Here's some information including MFT coverage: http://oldlenses.blogspot.com/2012/09/wollensak-raptar-2-inch-50mm-f15-c.html Hope this helps, ...

These Kaligars are the original lenses for the Kalimar Six Sixty: http://camera-wiki.org/wiki/Kalimar_Six_Sixty ...but both have appeared with various other names.

This one is LTM for 39mm Leica screw rangefinders, apparently: https://www.ebay.com/itm/W-Telesar-35mm-f3-5-Leica-SM-10485-/282801797609 http://camera-wiki.org/wiki/39mm_screw_lenses#Telesar

Yes, that looks like the Kalimar/Fujita 44mm screw mount: http://camera-wiki.org/wiki/Fujita_66

Here in the UK I'm offered "Tamron 70-300...

If the projected price of $2,000 is converted from the 225,000 Japanese Yen price on the Cosina web page, that may not be accurate. Often Japanese products sell for less on the international ...

That is an unusual and interesting lens. The closest match I can find is this one for the Canon (LTM) rangefinder cameras: https://global.canon/en/c-museum/product/s27.html ...and a similar (the ...

Yes, though the 58mm focal length was common as the standard lens on quite a few early SLRs. Is there enough difference between this and the 25mm f/0.95, though? Dunno. I agree about the contacts. ...

No, unfortunately that won't work. The flange focal distance is different, even if the bayonet could be modified. There are Nikonos-Sony adapters, but they're usually more expensive: https://www.am ...
