Does anyone know if its ok to attach a Summicron-R onto the new MTF mount?
John Brawley successfully used a Leica Summicron-R on a preproduction EF mount BMCC (with an adaptor), but I was wondering if the new MTF mount might be an even better choice?
thanks

since there are mtf to eos adapters, you should be able to mount your leicaR (with eos adapter) on that adapter wihout any problems....things might get a little unstable though and i don't think it is a good idea to use more then one adapter....but that's just me...
i have used leica R lenses on the 5dII quite a bit, there are even some adapters with focus confirmation.....works well....will definitely look into that with the BMC...
i don't know of any mft to leica R adapters, but there is no reason why it should not be available...
