Trioplan 2.8/100, help adapting it.

After a longing for a Trioplan 2.8/100 I have managed to get one in very good condition and a hefty price. My problem now is that it has an Exakta mount and I don't know how to adapt it to any of my systems (M42, Nikon F, Canon EOS, Canon FD). Can it be adapted to any of these? I have found adapters for my Fuji X-Pro-1, but I would like to try it with my favorite film. Is that possible, or should I add an Exa mount camera to my collection? Smile

Questions on adapters should goes to adapter section http://forum.mflenses.com/adapters-and-other-accessories-f10.html .

There is adapter to Canon FD made by Canon Click here to see on Ebay .

There are also EOS adapter like this one Click here to see on Ebay. There some some restrictions for lens with aperture arm. If you use it on a FF camera, you may need to do some modification on the lens or the camera.

Sorry for messing up. Is it possible to move this from here to the other section?

Many thanks for the recommendations. The Canon FD adapter is remarkably expensive!

Canon FD adapter is pretty rare in the market...

Moderators, please help move this thread to the adapter section. Thanks!

Try it with your Fujifilm camera.
The adapters are cheap and the results are wonderful.
