I would go with Voigtlander.
I have a few and all work fine.

for LMT to M, i notice they have diff ones for specific focal length. I got one that says 50-75mm for the Voigt 75/2.5. However, when i screw it on and put it on the camera, it doesn't line up correctly once mounted. Any ideas?

Just tested a 50-75mm focal length version with a f1.8 50mm Canon Ltm.

The only issue is the lens aligns a little to the left but that seems to be the threads out of alignment

So as infinity is the only TAP focus position mandated You only have the slight offset for the aperture.

I just buy the Leica Leitz ones off fleebay. Cheap enough (IIRC I paid no more than $50 each. They come on quite often, just set an alert) and solid construction and fit in the 3 different ones I got.

Plus they hold their values quite well. I sold 1 after a LTM lens acquisition didn't go through as planned and it was stored for over a year. I was even able to make a few bucks for my trouble.

If it has to be new, check out Novoflex. I've never had any problem with their products. Perfect fit every time.

Hmmm seems the ebay adapter is working correctly:

As these "experts" say the adapter should not centre due to focus window issues? At least that is what I think they say!

I tested my lenses on a lieca lietz adapter and infinity alignment is the same as the ebay adapter so that ebay adapter is ok.
