accidental adaptation
Ich habe am adapterbrauch gestolpert. Doch, ein bisschen wissen war praktisch.
When years ago I got a Miranda and an Alpa and discovered that they had adapters that fitted my old takumar macro, I of course used that.
Much, much later when I succumbed to using digital devices, I got a Kodak with canon EF mount that easily accomodated M42, Nikon and Contax so my library of lenses with adapters could be expanded. Especially when Leitz abandoned their R series and their lenses became cheap .
Also before the general discovery of good DDR optics while amateur cine was nonexistent and no one had heard of Kinoptic and Angenieux I could stock up on unfashioable, high quality glass.
For a short whille I used the quite handy MFT and aquired mr Caldwells excellent speedboosters to recapture wide angles. But the Nikon z7 allowed my wides to be wide while the large sensor could serve as negatives used to perform in the darkoom: enabling framing and enlaging details while it accepts all my old lenses. Novoflex provided the proper mount for their 50-60year old pigriff- C.
Unfortunately the Nikon is too large and heavy, so for hiking I have succumbed to using an APS-sensor autofocus 11-23 wide zoom ehile carrying my old M lenses in pockets (much more compact that current creations). the camera is not as easy to focus as the Z but has reasonable picture quality and has proven to be robust enough to survive a few of my stumblings. (It remains to be seen if it will survive rain and snow as long as my M3 did)

Conclusion: accidental adaptation of adapters is a distinct possibility
