Only that you'll have to lock up the mirror and use the shoe mount
viewfinder for the Voigtlaender 15mm lens. It isn't designed for use with a
mirror-down SLR. Some experimenting may be needed to determine whether the
adaptor affects the focusing scale.
I've considered the same arrangement for my SLR.

Dear all,
I recently had the opportunity to play with the new (well fairly)
Voigtlander range finder cameras and lenses. They are based on a Leica
39mm
screw fitting. The lens that interested me was a 15mm super wide, for the
low price of 300UKP new. I have seen a 39m to OM mount adapter advertised,
can anyone with optics expertise suggest any obvious flaws with this
arrangement ?
Gareth.
