absolutely, so please don't get rid of your leica lenses, they are fine...I 
will take a look at this info Julian, I have used 6 or 8 varied leica lenses 
on the EX-1 and the X Pro1 bodies (also on my M9), without issue, with very 
good results, so I will be very interested in this information....


many thanks,

Steve
