A very good company, they manufacture a lot of the items they sell rather than buy them in from the cheapest supplier. The quality of anything I've had from them has always been first class.

I'll add my own praise to this company, I sent them a lens last year and they made an adapter for it to fit my Canon, superb job.

Sounds good, could you tell us more about the adapter and the time it took them to make it? Thanks.

Highly recommended indeed!
I'm a regular client, ordering "custom manufacture" items at least twice annually.
Reasonable prices, fast shipping, excellent workmanship & very professional overall approach, what else to ask for?

The lens (Hartblei 45/3.5 Super Rotator tilt shift) had a Pentacon 6 mount, I sent the lens to them and they made a mount from scratch to fit my Canon cameras. The lens came back, with new mount attached, in about two weeks. The cost was a very reasonable £70.
The new mount had no electronic contacts, I didn't ask for them because I've never found one to be accurate (I don't know if they even offer that as an option). The mount has a matt black finish and looks like it is an original part of the lens.

I wouldn't hesitate to use them again, the guy I dealt with was friendly and helpful.

Thanks for the information. This sounds really good and indeed reasonable.
