Hi,
is this equation correct?

Canon S mount = Canon RF = LTM = M39?

With this adapter: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Kipon-Adapter-for-Leica-M39-Mount-Lens-to-Nikon-Z-Full-Frame-Mirrorless-Camera/123472158414?hash=item1cbf839ece:g:iesAAOSwv1db4SjE:rk:1:pf:0 I would be able to mount this lens

Thanks.

The Canon 50/1.2 is Leica Thread Mount and will work with the adapter shown, assuming the adapter follows the standard. I've owned 3 of the Canon 50/1.2 lenses- have used them with my Canon RF's, Leica LTM and M-Mount cameras.

Canon cameras and lenses made before the end of 1946 have a different pitch to the thread. They are rare and collectible.

Yes, the Canon S 50/1.2 will mount on that adapter, I have that lens on my A7r. It's a very compact lens for it's speed.

The last part of the equation isn't the whole truth. LTM is M39 but M39 is not always LTM. There are several different mounts with the same thread & different registration as well as loads of M39 enlarger lenses.
