@theSuede: Thanks, but I posted that link for others who might be interested. Not that I wouldn't like to try the 150/2.8, but I am planning other lens purchases atm.

I've started to make a bit of a comparison between the Mamiya 80/2.8 N and the Leica R 80. I've been meaning to make a very simple web site for this kind of thing and put some thing together recently (last night). I'm not a programmer so I make no excuses for how crap it is, but it does seem to work, albeit using Frames. I'm using an old domain at www.rigshots.com.au , click on the "80" link at the top to see the table with images to choose from. Apple Safari seems to work better than IE with this site, if you have the choice.
At the moment I only have some vignetting tests for the Mamiya 80/2.8 N, Leica and Canon 24-70 but plan to add other test images as I have time. Feedback or suggestions would be appreciated but keep in mind this is just a rough setup pretty much for my own use, but I'm happy to share.
The pictures are obviously different, but I wonder whether they are selling an older version of the adapter on ebay, or if they are simply using outdated pictures. The one on ebay looks like it has the M645 mount epoxied to it (instead of using 6 screws).
This question must be well beaten up, but does Hartblei still manufacture or sell their shift adaptors? I know the super-rotator and T/S is no more though....
Dang, I was too impatient! Bought one through their website, but just got a reply from the question I posted on ebay:
The adapter you will be getting is the one listed on fotodiox.com. Yes this is an older version pictured on ebay.
Oh well... I just donated them $11...
So for other buyers: order through ebay if you want free shipping ($74.95+$4 while on the website it's $79.95+shipping).
