The L39 or LTM (Leica Thread Mount) is a screw mount used on Leica and many Soviet rangefinder cameras including FED, Zorki and early Kiev models. Many classic lenses were made in this mount including the Jupiter series from the Soviet Union, which are affordable copies of pre-war Zeiss designs. This adapter allows L39 lenses to be used on Micro Four Thirds bodies.
