TELE-Elmar completed

The modification of Leitz TELE-Elmar 135/4 old M lens setting on Canon EOS digital imaging format has successfully completed last late at night. Because some complicated conjunctive parts was utilized, Minolta MC ROKKOR 135/3,5 helicoid, it took time for me far longer than the method just putting the EOS bayonet flange nails on Minolta lenses as I did much previously. As for my surprise, the potential in image resolution is eye-opening and phenomenal so much, just realized I the fact that TELE-Elmar is used by some professional purpose for datum recording of Nara Remains(Cultural property), provably this exceptional capability in Resolution had made him determine to choose TELE-Elmar 40 years ago as a main recording device. Extraordinary potential of this historical lens would be survived on Digital Imaging element, Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor in Canon 7D. But, remember that my modification way is not destructive one but reversible, so I can returned back this modified TELE-Elmar as it had been in original condition, Leica M bayonet lens whenever desired.
 How does this lens play as a reproduction tool, stopping the time, cutting out a specific three dimensional space and reproducing some smell of the air space (feeling of the air) without any dramatization nor exaggeration? The lens designing concept of putting an emphasis on the capability of resolution rather than contrast reflecting well to the untrained eye is nothing but the characteristic requirement for my favorite tool on earth.
Any inconvenience for ordinary use is not discerned at present, but very slight hitting phenomena on Minolta flange inside surface between straight helicoid movement guide piece axially is observed now, so a little adjustment there by grinding would eliminate this sense of discomfort thoroughly. Any bug should be removed however slight it may be, if an ultimate performance is required as a extraordinary special performance tool.
