FS: Kindai Contax-EoS Adapter

Have for sale a Kindai(CameraQuest) Contax-Zeiss-EoS adapter left oevr from my days of using CZ glass.

Most people consider the Kindai units the gold standard of lens adapters - and they are priced accordingly - US$175 new for the Contax-EoS units. Very accurate thickness, tight tolerances and solid construction.

For many, the ONLY adapter that run when using some of the more high-end uber Contax/Yashica glass such as the 21/2.8, 100 APO, the 55 and 85 Jahre's etc., in order to ensure infinity focus and factory-spec performance on a Canon body.

As per Kindai/CQ practice, this adapter is NOT chipped. That said, solid custom-encoded chips and a fitment template are available from Rudolph at happypagehk (EBay) for roughly $35 and you may be able to mount one accordingly.

Adapter is very clean, with only minute brassing of the black finish (identical to that of the 'black chrome' of a Leica Mx).

Price is US$125 (30% off new) shipped and PP'd (from Eastern Canada) by snail mail. Faster (XpressPost) shipping available, buyer pays additional $5. Payment by PP or EMT (within Canada) or via USPS International Money Order.

Will also take in partial trade some step-up rings (see related post) I'm looking for OR will also trade for a clean & smooth Nikon 105/2.5 AiS.

Thanks
