has anyone used this with Leica, Zeiss or Voigtlander "M" mount lenses?

I'm using Zeiss lenses from my Contax 35mm (Contax / Yashica mount: 28 f2.8 Distagon, 50mm f1.4 Planar and 80-200mm f4 Vario Sonnar) on the A7R, and they work very well.

Yes, it has been done. See the Steve Huff photography website. Steve's site is heavily attended by Leica folks. Steve says that, with those lenses, he gets better results with the A7 and A7R than he gets with a Leica M9! Of course the A7 and A7R are not as compact. The website will probably tell you where to find an adaptor. If not, you could contact Steve through the site.

I use it with a Panasonic FZ200 Bridge Camera. With larger telephoto lenses I would look for something more robust.

You can use Leica R (or Reflex) mount lenses on either Nikon (though I believe you need to change the mount rather than buy an adapter). Adapting a Leica M mount or screwmount lenses can be used in close focus/macro images, or there are a very small number of lenses that were designed for Leica's Lieca Visoflex system (these are fairly rare today) which can be adapted (but may require certain fairly rare accessories--Visoflex wasn't all that popular so the accessories weren't widely owned).

I have some Sigma lenses that work seamlessly. Just make sure the mount matches when you shop.

Never tried. I only use Nikon and Leica M39 lenses with it. But I imagine it would work just fine!

I don't use it, but it should work OK with the included lenses. I wouldn't be sturdy enough for larger telephoto lenses, but it is a lot lighter than the tripod I use for that.

I have had no problem, although I am not sure how the mc30 would hit your lense. I would try it ,but may but it from a local store so you can try it in the store.

not sure what you mean; I am not aware of any software update for Zeiss lenses. This works fine on my Sony a6000.

Yes. The Sony NEX series cameras can be used with nearly all camera lenses from every manufacturer.... with an adapter, which are easy to acquire. Google "Leica M to NEX adapter." However, using adapters typically limits you to manual control only - manual focus, manual aperture setting, no image stabilization, etc. Since Leica M lenses do not autofocus anyway, even on native Leica cameras, this may not be a concern to you.

I use it with mine. Works well. Just need a 77mm filter thread or an adaptor for your particular lens.

Yes, I have and it works great but only in bright light situations. It essentially doubles all aspects of the attached lens. But using this device in low light situations reduces light through the lens and the auto focus may not work properly in low light situations. I photographed a house across the canyon which was about 1/3 mile away and it looked close and the picture was bright and clear.

Yes - works with all the ef and efs lenses I've tried it with and is very solid. Build quality might not be quite as nice but it's a lens adaptor so I don't really care too much.

The detachment is not as buttery smooth as how the adapter interacts with the camera body. Besides, the play between the lens and adapter seems to "grow" after a few times of mounting and dismounting. So to me the answer to your question is no. Each of my Leica-M has its own adapter which enables me to mount and dismount a lens quicker. You can shop around for E-Mount rear lens caps. I bought a set of 3 for very little $.

I used it on my G3 (same lens mount) with 30 year collection of Nikkor lenses. No problem experienced. Not all lenses seemed to work well with some of the more exotic, but I use it often with my 1000 mm cat, and my 50-300 mm zoom (although the appearance of the little G3 on that monster raises snickers from many). Keep in mind you have manual focus. Some of the A1 lenses can be used that will not work with later Nikon cameras!

I am using this with the a7r and zeiss 35mm 2.8 biogon and leica 90mm 2.8 tele-elmarit without any vignetting.

Do not use with zoom lenses only primes. I half 6 adapters that I use. there is not enough clearance. by the EOS-m4/3 works. hope that helps.

There are some adapters to make that happen. Of course fulltime manual, focus and light metering, aperture all manual. I bought the Leica M to NEX mount and it works flawlessly ( I use it with a Zeiss Planar). It also worked for my XPro-1 Fuji.
