Our Leitax mount will work on all Contax C/Y lenses variants made by
Zeiss, and possibly
on other brands lenses with the C/Y mount.

![]() |
This one is a Narrow MM type mount. Note the lug on the original mount. |
![]() | The Wide MM lenses have a pin there. Other Contax lenses have nothing there, no problem, just put the lens at this same position guided by the notch below. |
![]() |
This is what you receive from Leitax. |

First, we put the steel plate on top of the original mount. Evidently, the lug/pin will coincide with the cut-out on the Leitax mount. |
![]() |
Like this. |
![]() |
Now install the black ring. |
![]() |
Note the position of the small hole, like this the black ring will enter between the original mount wings. |
![]() |
And now we can rotate it until the small hole coincides with that slot . |
![]() |
See how convenient is to have the screwdriver magnetized. Just rub a magnet on it. |
![]() |
Time to put the small screw into the threaded hole. |
![]() |
Done, now the black ring cannot rotate. |
![]() |
Now see that the holes of the two rings don't coincide.. |
![]() |
Rotate a bit the steel ring until they coincide. |
![]() |
And we can install the lens centering ring on top of the steel ring. |
![]() |
Now we need that the three holes coincide to use the included black screws. |
![]() |
Carefully, tighten the four black screws, alternatively bit each one until tight, but not too much. I use only two fingers on the screwdriver to avoid doing too much force. |
![]() |
Ready, now our Contax lens can be used on the full frame Arri cameras. |
