Using LTM lens with Hexar

[bambam]

Hi

Thinking of searching out a new lens for my Hexar RF and wanted to check something :

Is there any issue with using a screw thread lens with a M mount adapter on the Hexar? Will I lose any functionality etc?

M mount lenses seem very expensive for something that wont get used too much hence thinking of exploring the screw mount with something like a Jupiter..

While we're here - are there any screw mount lenses to consider/avoid?

Cheers

No there shouldn't be any issues when using LTM lenses on an M-mount camera (as long as your adapter is correct). One thing to note is that most (if not all) LTM lenses only focus down to 0.9m compared to 0.7m for M lenses.
