FAQ Adapters: DKL Will Not work with this adapterUpdated a year ago
The Fotodiox DKL Adapters were modeled after the Kodak Retina DKL Lenses manufactured by Schneider Kreuznach. Due to the variances between the original manufacturer's intolerance of the Aperture and lock placement, we cannot guarantee that these adapters will fit all DKL lenses. It is also important to note that most lenses of this age were built with brass mounting flanges that can wear down over time, which may cause your lens to feel loose. The same wear issue can occur on the locking mechanism of the lens. PLEASE TEST YOUR LENS ON THE ADAPTER IN A SAFE ENVIRONMENT PRIOR TO DAY-TO-DAY USE TO ENSURE THAT YOUR LENS IS SECURE.
