Out of the SIX adapters i bought, this is the ONLY adapter that allows my Contax Zeiss glass to work on my Elan film cameras. I have two C/Y lenses (35-70 3.4*T and 80-200 f/4) that I used on my Contax RX and Sony A7r2, but wanted a film camera that was A) lighter and B) would work with my Zeiss ZE 21mm.
This adapter WILL NOT clear an Elan IIE mirror on any focal length on these two lenses. The Elan 7 and Elan 7E it WILL work, except at infinity. So you have to stop just short of infinity, but that is a compromise I was willing to deal with. Otherwise a Leitax mount swap is the only way to get a C/Y mount lens to work; and even then, some C/Y lenses won't work with certain EOS cameras, digital or film.
