I just spotted this Kipon adapter on BH. I got a notice of a $100 price drop on 
their adapters. This looks like the best adapter for m42 adapters with aperture 
linkage:

Plus it has macro.

Nice decrease in what seemed to me an excessive price. OTOH, the Fotasy model 
on its way here is less than 1/3 the price.

Coming more slowly is a T-mount to M42 adapter. Should be  simple thing to make, as T-mount register distance is about 10 mm longer than M42, but thin on the ground, it seems.

Should allow me to use my T-mount lenses with focusing helicoid.

Further Adaptations Moose
