Three - Layer Sandwich From Voightländer

This device has three layers.

The front layer is Leica M-series mount.

The middle layer is Voigtländer.

The back layer is Sony E-series mount.

The side ring says it is a VM-E Close focus adapter but when I combined a Leica 50mm Elmar lens and a Sony A 6000 camera I got infinity focus looking east towards Bulwer Street. I initially thought that this was just the effect of Bulwer Street...

But then I noticed a small red tab on the side of the adapter - once triggered, it allows the ring to screw open to provide the effect of a small extension tube. VERY useful for the Leica lens user who dos not want to haul boxes of gear to capture flowers and insects.

Well-made in Japan.
