Deckel Adapters Use your classic Voigtlander Bessamatic, Ultramatic, Kodak Retina SLR or IIIS  lenses on most 42mm Screw Mount Bodies   Amazingly, you can now use classic Voigtlander Bessamatic, Voigtlander Ultramatic, Kodak Retina SLR, or Kodak IIIS lenses  on  Pentax 42mm screw mount bodies.   For Canon FD or Canon EOS, add a second 42mm screw mount adapter, and use those bodies as well.   There is NO linkage between the bodies and the lenses, BUT the adapter does couple to the lens, giving you automatic depth of field indication as you change f/stops. TTL metering possible at shooting aperture.   Will not fit Fujica screw mount bodies due to the meter coupling pin on the Fujica body.  All these mounts were championed if not invented by the makers of the Compur shutter,  the Friedrich Deckel Company of Munich, Germany.   PICS    ORDER

 Medium Format 2 1/4  Lens Adapters:

2 1/4 LENSES to 35MM or  2 1/4 BODIES --   These are precision,  robust adapters that will do justice to your quality lenses and cameras.  Do not confuse our adapters with poorly finished "bargain priced"  adapters which often bind up -- either on the lens or the body.    There are no glass elements to degrade image performance.  There is no linkage between the body and the lens, which means the lens aperture must be controlled manually.  Most camera bodies still allow TTL flash and ambient light metering, at stop down aperture.  All allow lens focus to infinity.
