Sorry to disappoint, but I am WRONG - the first adaptor is the wrong way
round (converts M42 lenses to use on C/Y bodies) but it may be worth asking
SRB in any case.

C/Y mount register (distance from lens flange to film plane ) is 45.5mm but
OM mount register is 46mm so any adaptor would need to have optics to
preserve infinity focus. That said, it seems to me that you can achieve
what you want with the following:
1 C/Y to M42 adaptor, combined with
2 an M42 to OM adaptor,
Both are available from SRB in UK. GBP12 for the C/Y and GBP42 for the OM
(which has the optics).
SRB website page for the adaptors is here:
http://www.srbfilm.co.uk/publish/page7.html
And Willem Markerink's useful table of lens registers is here:

HTH!

Hey ooomms,
i would like to use my Zeiss lenses with Contax/Yashica-mount on my Oms.
Does someone know here at the list whether an adapter is available?
Thanx
Michael
