Took a sonnar lens from 1937, had a custom lens adapter made (m42) rear mount, and this is now def. a centerpiece of my small collection.
I guess for lens purists it's a bastardization of a lens-- not the leica direct mount--but the flektoskop attachement made it unusable for most purposes. Nothing was destroyed in the process as the original flektoshop still threads on.
I personally think the custom adapter gives it a sexier look.
