"and I recently found another super high quality uwa lens in Leica thread
mount, the Yoigtlander Heliar Aspheric 15mm f/4.5, which is a real bargain
at only $450 from B&H. It's almost worth buying a Voigtlander Bessa-L body
to use this quality lens at
that price (it goes on my Leica CL body with an M-bayonet adapter)."

It is difficult to obtain information on what will fit the CL body and I was
wondering about both the lens referred to above and the Cosina built lenses
that Adorama is selling.  Will they also function correctly on the CL body?
