What does your telescope maker offer? What is the thread
size you need. This question initially sounded like you wanted to use a Leica screw mount lens on a bayonet camera. Telescopes usually use a "T" Mount system.

Yes you are correct, but I've yet to find a T-mount for the Leica M. So, my
thinking says to first get a SM to M adapter then acquire a T-Mount for the SM version. There are two types I believe, first there is a 29tpi which appears to be Leica specific. Then there is a 39tpi for all others. I think I need the 39tpi for my application. Scott "Francis Roy" wrote in message news:ylfXe.5017$e_4.2112@trndny08... What does your telescope maker offer?
