Amedeo's new S-mount to LTM adapter is a nicely machined piece of equipment. Here's a shot with it being used in combination with a 35mm/135mm L-M ring to mount an S-mount W-Nikkor 3.5cm f2.5 on a Zeiss Ikon with the correct frame lines brought up. Admittedly, the Amedeo adapter is made in Venezuela, but everything else in the photo is made in Japan :thumbsup:

Here's a close up of the spring lock used to lock internal mount lenses - a very clever idea.

Thanks! It's not the exact setup pictured above, but here's a shot taken with the W-Nikkor 3.5cm f2.5 mounted on a Zeiss Ikon using another Amedeo adapter (edit: just realised that the adapter I used for this shot was a Kindai International S-LTM adapter, not an Amedeo adapter. FWIW Amedeo's adapters are better made and much cheaper than Kindai International adapters) (more shots taken with this lens here).

And here's a slightly cropped shot taken with the Nikkor-H 5cm f2 mounted on an R-D1 using an Amedeo adapter (more shots taken with this lens here).

Does it matter if you use a M-mount or LTM mount? Or did you choose LTM so that it would bring up the framelines?

Thank you! Nikkors are on the more expensive side of the spectrum, but its still possible to find bargains. Both lenses above can be found reasonably cheaply. The SP finder is like having an M3 finder with 50, 85, 105, 135 framelines and 1:1 magnification and a CV mini-finder built-in next to it with 28mm and 35mm framelines. Really convenient once you get used to it.
Doesn't matter. The only advantage of the S-LTM adapter is that you can select which framelines will show by the L-M ring. But I already sold my Amedeo S-LTM adapter, and kept my S-M adapter instead because I don't mind juggling with the preview lever.

LTM equivalent of these lenses:
The Nikkor35f2.5 is tiny.
