7artisans Photoelectric CLOSE RING- L S Overview

Attach Leica M-mount lenses to your Leica L-mount mirrorless camera with this Close Focus Adapter from 7artisans. Beyond being a simple, manual adapter for attaching the rangefinder lens to the mirrorless body, this adapter also incorporates a helicoid to permit closer focusing distances than typically possible. The adapter ring will still permit working within the original focusing range of the lens and, since the adapter has no optical components, it will maintain the original qualities of the lens. It is constructed from aluminum and copper and has an anodized finish for high durability and scratch resistance.

Rangefinder lenses traditionally have longer minimum focusing distances than lenses of the same focal length designed for SLR and mirrorless systems. This adapter ring incorporates a helicoid to improve on this focusing range by essentially becoming an adjustable extension tube in addition to a manual lens adapter ring. Focus adjustment is still possible on the attached lens and, when set to the lens's minimum focusing distance, the helicoid of the adapter can be extended to achieve closer focusing performance.

I see some reviews here mentioning that the adapter won't mount correctly on different cameras. Can you confirm if it'll mount correctly on a Panasonic S5 or not?
Asked by: Mathias
7artisans Photoelectric Close Focus Adapter for Leica M Lens to Leica L Camera is fully compatible with Panasonic Lumix S5 Mirrorless Camera. The adapter is compatible with all Leica L mount cameras including Leica SL. The click sound when the adapter is mount on Leica cameras is not as loud and clear as in Lumix. We recommend attaching the lens to the adapter and mounting both to the camera. This method will allow you to get a better grip of your lens when attaching them to the camera.

Why is it labeled photo electric?

Why is it labeled photo electric?
Asked by: Robert
That is just branding. 7artisans has a whole lineup of all manual lenses called Photoelectric. Same goes with this adapter. It is just a brand name. It does not describe the product.
