All that to get a common Konica AR 40/1.8? I hope it was dirt cheap.

I'm thinking maybe he'll sell some of that other gear he picked up for dirt cheap. Yes?

First time I've run into this kind of attitude in this group. It's sort of ugly isn't it? All of that 'stuff' came from an 88 year old man whose wife was dying in a rest home. He needed money. I didn't need any of the stuff but I paid him too much for it. I then sold all of it, except for the 40mm lens, to a guy that I wholesale stuff to who sells it to high school and college students who are interested in film photography. I have too much invested in the 40mm lens but I feel good about the deal. Sorry if this bothered any of you. I'll restrain myself in the future.

@rybolt
Thank you for your info regarding Amedeo Muscelli adapters.

Do you know any good Diax adapters? I have one, paid 120usd but not good at all.

Have you tried the adapters made by Ramir and sold on Ebay at his Rare Adapter Store? I've tried his Altix-Fuji adapter and it worked very well.
