Jonathan,

There are adpaters for Tamron to go on an R but I am not sure about an M.
My point is the lens justifies the camera not the other way around.

Are Tamron lenses made for the M? I think not. Would I put a perfectly
rectangular Tamron 15mm f4 ASPH lens with no vignetting and excellent
sharpness and contrast on my M (if it were $120). Sure! Where is it?

Or would I use a Cosina? It sounds like a number of people are and like it.
What is the point?
