Found this in a local ad.
The 3 first are for Contax and the last one for 645.
To Bad I can't use Contax on my Pentax!

The price on the 85mm is very good
Of course I don't know the conditions - it may have some problem.
Usually is sold around Eur 400.

Orio, I'd like to ask a question. Do you use C-Y/EOS AF adapter on Canon EOS? Is it OK? Stability?

Yes, I use them. No problem with the stability. The only inconvenient of the ones that I use is that for some lenses they are not thin enough for infinity focus. So what I did was to take one of them and sandpaper it down to obtain the proper thickness. I now use the sandpapered adapter for those lenses (like the 1.4/35) that could not reach infinity with the normal adapter.
They tell me that the expensive adapters, such as Cameraquest's, don't have this problem with infinity focus.
But they cost a lot of money, so I prefer to just sandpaper my common adapter down Wink

Thanks, I read that you have one from ebay seller big_is. That is cheaper than the others, and does it show the infinity focus?

I think there is a mistake, I never bought from a seller called "big is".
I don't know about the quality of his adapters.
