Just got my Komodo last month and want to try out some vintage glass on it. Mainly looking at M42 stuff. Anyone have a good M42 to RF convertor they recommend?

Just grabbed a 50mm Jena Pancolar 1.8 (8 bladed Thorium version) that I'm excited to put on the Komodo.
 
I will use the canon speed booster with a regular M42 adapter. Otherwise, much of the old look gets lost.

On this note, however, just throwing this out there, is there any anamorph glass available for M42 mounts?
 
I've adapted nearly all of my M42 glass to Canon EF as the adapters are cheap as heck. Generally when I can I like to consolidate to a single adapted to mount. The advantage in this case if you can use all the RF>EF mounts with special features like behind the lens ND, helicoid adapters, etc.
