    Thanks for the offer but cost of shipping from USA to UK would be prohibitive. Put them on ebay 99c...

    Would you be interested in more Adaptall-2 Lenses.?? List is 40A, 46A, 103A also a Vivitar 70-210 A mount. None of these are worth anything to me. They are all clean, clear optics, and fully functional. If I list them in the martkplace only the 40A would be above 1 dollar. I will be listing 3 AF lenses and a Metz 52 AF-1. You could have the adaptalls for the cost of shipping. let me know.
    Alan.

    Oh, I forgot to tell you that i fitted the 60-300 with the chinese tripod mount by using a bit of a very firm rubber cut into a thin strips as shims. It fits very nicely over the aperture ring with the PKA mount under it. A 200mm f2.5 Soligor that I own received a mount with just a strip of paper from an election advertisement as a shim. The 75-250mm 104A was harder for the mount was larger in diameter. It took 2 thicknesses of that firm rubber gasket making material. I have a 65mm inside diameter one on order from Hong Kong for the 52A. Thank You so much for referring me to your posting/article about how to make them fit.
    Sincerely, Alan C. Wilson

    OOO I just had an idea! I bought some sheets of UHMW-PE which is extremely slick plastic for the boat trailer bunks and keel tray under our latest sailboat, a Morgan Out Island 30. The stuff is so slick that the boat kept moving around as we towed it home from Maryland. I have some of that leftand I thout of using a long QR plate under the lens with a semi-circular attachment toward the end under the long focus ring with the slick plastic fitted to it so there would be no friction from the support plate. I think I will try building that and let you know how that works.
