Found this very interesting tidbit while surfing this morning. Since the
English translation is miserable it might be a mistake of interpretation,
but, it seems that Konica has released the Hexar lens in the Leica M mount.
The URL of the article (about compact cameras; mostly the Ricoh GR1), as
well as the direct quoted passage from it, are below:

>>Like the independant release of the Konika Hekisa lens with the Leica
>>mount, this lens would be great if it had the Leica mount,.. well that's
>>what I think.<<
