That middle lens has still to appear... I know that Tom has written that Mr Kobayashi seemed interested in producing the new 125mm F2.5 lens in a Viso fit. And I did mention to him that no fish eye lenses had ever been made in Leica LTM or any rangefinder fit, so who knows what his factory might be working on? Personally I would be surprised if he brought out the lenses in M mount. I'm sure that most M-owners who wanted one of the lenses would have bought one by now alonmg with an adapter. After all, a screw lens can be used on both types of bodies, an M lens only on one. regards, Jem - -----Original Message----- From: Steve Unsworth [SMTP:steve.unsworth@Bigfoot.com] Does anyone have any idea how much the 28mm costs (will cost?)? And now that they have full range from 12mm to 90mm, are there any plans to bring out versions with 'M' rather than LTM mounts?

I'd have imagined Tom A might offer us his thoughts first. Tom?
