I'm having fun testing my collection of Leitz projection lenses. This here is a large Elmaron 150mm f/2.8. I think this one was intended for use with the Prado Universal as it comes complete with its original focussing tube. That tube has a 55mm thread so mounting it is relatively easy.

There is a big difference in character between the Leitz projection lenses, Colorplan are f.i. far more subtle and smooth..

yes, it looks like improve from Hektor, elmaron still has nice bokeh like hektor but better coating. close to Meyer bokeh
Colorplan has different OOF area.

Hello, I have one of these en route to me and I’m trying to plan how to adapt it to Canon R5. It’s the black version with the helicoid. I’ve read in one place that the thread on the back is 54mm and here that it’s 55mm. Does anyone know the exact/correct size/diameter? I’m trying to order an adapter to take me to M42. Many, many thanks in adavance for your help! Can’t wait to use this one!
