Originally posted by vonBaloney Yeah, you wouldn't want to use superglue internally unless all the glass was out and it had a long time to cure, but around the mount, I would cover up the glass with something so you don't accidentally touch it and then just yeah, keep the air flowing, let it dry overnight, it will be fine. I haven't glued rings like this a lot, but I have used superglue probably a dozen times to glue down aperture pins on the mounts of m42 lenses that didn't have a switch where I didn't want to take it apart to modify it. Never had a problem with the vapors hurting the glass.
Well, I glued the adapter last night. We'll see how it works...
By the way, I came across an Exakta to M42 adapter on Amazon. Works basically the same way - just a ring with 3 screws. It doesn't say anything about infinity focus, but I assume there won't be infinity focus with this set up... Delivery was from China and would take up to 2 months, so I went for the glue instead.
