Is there a Compur #0 - sized shutter (for a Century) in which I
can mount a Leica-threaded enlarging lens, to use it as a high resolution flat-field copy lens? I've got a 60mm Focotar for the purpose.

No.

#0 front thread is M29.5x0.5, Leica thread is M39x1. A 39 mm screw won't go into a 29.5 mm hole.

But you can have an adapter made. The last time I asked 'em, SKGrimes charged $60 for what you need.

Good luck,

Dan
