LEICA R TO M ADAPTER REVIEW
Introduction
Leica R to M Adapter from Leica camera enables Leica R lenses to be mounted on the Leica M series cameras. The R-Adapter M can attach Leica R lenses to any M-series digital camera, such as the Leica M-E or Leica M Monochrom camera, however with the Leica M Digital Rangefinder‘s Live View capability, use of the Leica R lenses is optimized. There are no electronic or mechanical functions between camera and lens that are bridged by the adapter, however, when the adapter is attached to the Leica M camera, a list of 20 dedicated Leica R lens profiles is made available on the camera, including EXIF lens recognition and calibrated imaging workflows for each lens. While all Leica R lenses can be mounted to the Leica M camera with this adapter, only the last generation of Leica R lenses can receive digital corrections, such as the reduction of corner vignetting, via the adapter.
This adapter opens up the creative doors for the Leica M camera by making available numerous R series lenses, including zoom lenses. Combine this adapter with an optional electronic viewfinder and you can shoot your M Digital rangefinder like a DSLR, including video capture.
