New or S/H lenses?
#9
Yes on Contax RF Bayonet mount.

 

I get the filling it takes a lot less to keep me out of trouble than you (I mean that in a good way).  If you my post where my fairy godmother gave me a Zeiss Contax III Rangefinder, + four Carl Zeiss Jena lenses + extras.  All pre-war.  All serials indicating 1935-1937.  At first I was disappointed because they can't be adapted to a Canon SLR.  Then after much soul searching I decided to find and adapter to MFT.  Well you know the commercially available adapters range from 2-4 hundred dollars and more.  So I looked to Russia for the answer.  I found the Helios for sale with the focusing adapter to MFT. 

 

I am also in the process of trading one of my CZJ RF lenses for a very unusual lens in the EF mount.  Voightander 90mm f/3.5. 

 

Now I am happy if the deal goes through because I will still have a Contax RF series of lenses to try on my friends MFT Olympus.  But more importantly, I have a very interesting lens to try that is made for the Canon EF mount.  In my favorite focal length!

 

Everything is still up in the air.  It was predicted to take a month to get the package from Russia.  Some people do not have the patience for that.  It will be my third from Russia.  All eBay.  All S/H.  I feel like an expectant father waiting for my lenses!
