I’m very pleased with this inexpensive K&F Concept adapter. This fits both L-mount camera body (2023 Panasonic Lumix S5IIX) and L39 lens (1950s Leica Summicron 50mm) perfectly, allowing my modern camera to be paired with my late grandfather’s prized lens. Works beautifully and both sides secure well: I’m really happy with my purchase.

As a non-electronic alternative to the much pricer Sigma MC-21 adapter, this is great. I have an MC-21 as well and this feels like the build quality is comparable - it‘s sturdy and well made.
Do be aware that this is entirely non-electronic so is only going to be useful with fully manual lenses, it won't support any sort of camera control (aperture/auto-focus) so don't expect to use it with anything where this is needed.

Only limited use so far, but good fit on all I‘ve tried and no alignment issues.

I bought this product so that I can attach vintage manual Nikon lenses and it is not easy to find this type of adapter for Nikon lenses.

I really enjoy using old lenses on my digital cameras and I wanted to keep this tradition going with my Panasonic S1R too. So I decided on the M42 adapter from K&F.
* Workmanship / accuracy of fit *
The adapter is solidly manufactured and makes a high-quality impression. The screw thread is clean and lenses can be attached easily. There are also no inaccuracies in the distance to the sensor - lenses can be focused to infinity.
* Special features *
I think the included transport box for the adapter is very nice. This means it can be easily stowed away without fear of damage.
* Conclusion *
Everything was great! If you want to continue using your old lenses on new cameras, you are in good hands with the adapter from K&F.
