Adapting basics#

A lens can be adapted with simple tube spacers when its flange distance is longer than the camera's. With 55.00 mm, YS mount lenses can in principle go on bodies with shorter flanges such as Leica S, Arri PL, Tamron Adaptall, Contax N, KMZ Zenit DKL-mount, Leica R. Bodies with this mount can take lenses from longer-flange systems such as Mamiya 6, Vivitar TX, Mamiya 7, Hasselblad H, Ricoh 126C-Flex, Mamiya 645, Novoflex [de] A-mount, Contax 645.
