Product Information

Full details

This Urth Lens Mount Adapter is designed for photographers who want to use Leica R mount lenses on Fujifilm X mount cameras. Its key benefit is enabling new creative lens combinations with a secure, light-sealed connection.

FAQs

Can I use autofocus with this adapter?

No, this adapter does not support autofocus. All focus adjustments must be made manually on the Leica R lens.

Will my camera meter exposure automatically?

No, automatic exposure metering is not supported. You will need to manually set your camera's shutter speed and ISO, and control the aperture on the Leica R lens.

Is this adapter compatible with all Fujifilm X mount cameras?

Yes, it is designed to be compatible with all cameras featuring the Fujifilm X mount. However, manual controls are always required.

How do I clean the adapter?

Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to gently wipe the surfaces. Avoid liquids or abrasive materials.

What is the warranty period for this adapter?

This adapter is backed by Urth's lifetime warranty.

Can I control the aperture through my camera?

No, aperture control must be done manually by adjusting the aperture ring on the Leica R lens itself.

Does this adapter support image stabilization?

If the image stabilization is built into the lens, it will not be controlled by the camera through this adapter. If stabilization is camera-body based, it will function as normal.

Troubleshooting

Adapter does not mount securely

Ensure there are no obstructions on the camera mount or adapter. Verify you are aligning the correct mount points and rotating firmly until it clicks.

Lens does not focus smoothly

Check that the lens is fully seated in the adapter. Some vintage lenses may have stiffer focus rings due to age; this is normal for the lens, not the adapter.

Image appears overexposed or underexposed

Confirm that you are manually setting the exposure (aperture on the lens, shutter speed and ISO on the camera) correctly for the scene. The adapter does not facilitate automatic exposure.

Light leaks around the lens mount

Ensure the adapter and lens are fully locked in place. If leaks persist, inspect the mounting surfaces for damage or debris. Contact customer support if the issue cannot be resolved.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Allows use of high-quality Leica R lenses on modern Fujifilm X cameras.
  • Durable construction using aluminum and copper ensures a long lifespan.
  • Precise machining provides a secure and light-tight connection.
  • Supports creative exploration by enabling unique lens and camera pairings.
  • Backed by a lifetime warranty for peace of mind.
  • Contributes to environmental reforestation efforts.

Cons

  • Does not support electronic or automatic camera functions (e.g., autofocus, aperture control).
  • Requires manual adjustment of focus and exposure settings.
  • May introduce slight vignetting or compatibility quirks depending on the specific lens and camera.
  • Not compatible with digital communication between lens and camera.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Gently align the adapter with the Fujifilm X mount on your camera.
  2. Rotate the adapter clockwise until it clicks into place, ensuring a secure connection.
  3. Mount your Leica R mount lens onto the adapter by aligning its mount with the adapter's front mount and rotating it clockwise until it locks.
  4. To dismount, press the release button on the adapter and rotate it counter-clockwise.

Compatibility:

This adapter is designed for Leica R mount lenses and Fujifilm X mount cameras. It does not support electronic communication, so all lens settings (focus, aperture) must be adjusted manually on the lens itself. Autofocus, auto-exposure, and in-camera image stabilization (if lens-dependent) will not function.

Care:

  • Keep the adapter clean by gently wiping it with a soft, dry microfiber cloth.
  • Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
  • Store the adapter in a dry, safe place when not in use to protect the delicate mounting surfaces.
