FAQs:
Does the Thypoch Positive Lock Adapter support electronic contacts?
No. The adapter does not support electronic communication between the Leica M lens and the Canon RF camera. All focusing and aperture adjustment must be done manually. This design maximises reliability and keeps the adapter lightweight and mechanically robust.
What makes the Thypoch adapter different from a standard M-to-RF adapter?
The Positive Lock Adapter uses a dual-lock system similar to those found on cinema cameras, providing a much tighter and more secure fit. This feature prevents minor shifts that can occur during focus pulls, especially when using heavier manual lenses. It's well-suited to precise still or video work.
Can I use the adapter with rangefinder-coupled lenses?
Yes, the adapter is fully mechanical and supports any standard Leica M-mount lens, including rangefinder-coupled models. However, the rangefinder coupling will not function; focusing must be done using live view or the EVF.
Is the handle removable or optional?
Yes. The adapter ships with a detachable handle that can be repositioned to suit your camera layout. You can also replace it with a flat anti-slip module if preferred. All parts are included in the kit, along with screws and a screwdriver.
