graham_line Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 <p>That's about it. There may be a couple other obscure ones.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david_l3 Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 <p>Add the Leica M4-P.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miles_s. Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 <p>The Chinese Red Flag 20 by the Shanghai No. 2 Camera Factory could be added for completeness.<br> As noted the M4-P is missing. The CL should properly be listed under Minolta and Leica. I think the Hexar Half Frame was called the "Hexar 72" but I have never seen one in person or print. What is a Leica M4A?<br> Not sure what criteria you are using for inclusion and exclusion of various Leica models? If the Hexar 72 is to be included why note the M4-2 Half Frame?<br> Try Camerapedia for lists.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leicaglow Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Not a film body, but the Epson EP-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aplumpton Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 <p>There was a military version of the M film camera from Leitz Midland Ontario (K-7e or something like that) which can be found sometimes on the used market. Apparently there were some M mount Leica IIIg's made, but likely not circulated on the market. There was also a Minolta CL, although the Leica CL was also made by Minolta to Leitz design and apparently the same instrument but with different logo.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miles_s. Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 <p>Sorry what is an Epson EP-1? Do you mean Olympus PEN E-P1? That is a micro four-thirds camera. <br> <br> I guess the M-mount module for Ricoh GXR system could be added to. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would act as an extension tube.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_levine Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 <p>M lenses cannot be fitted to LTM bodies, although the opposite is true. (LTM glass>M body).</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leicaglow Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 I typed Epson RD-1, but something different came out. <g> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t_nu_tamm Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 <p>No, there was not a single russian m mount bodiy as far as I know. I've seen a few ultra rare prototype m-mount lenses sold at Westlight auction, one was Helios-103, the other was Kaleinar-5.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aoresteen Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 <p>Steve,</p> <p>M lenses CAN be fitted to a screwmount body. For the most part they just won't focus to infinity.</p> <p>There was a version of the Visoflex for Leica screw mount that could use M lenses heads as I recall and they did focus to infinity.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john_kwok Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 <p>Doug,<br> To your list I would add the Zeiss Ikon SW which is a viewfinder-less Zeiss Ikon with is optimized to work with 25mm Biogons and wider lenses. I think it is still in production. As for ZM, that's Zeiss's designation for Zeiss M-mount lenses.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
