I plan to contact Mr. Mueller soon, but I have a few questions maybe you or someone else on the list could answer: Does the conversion use the 35mm or 28mm finder frame? Can the conversion be done on the new 21mm ASPH? Are the goggles removable? (I'm assuming not as easily as the 50mm DR, but with screws, like the 35mm RF lenses on which the conversion is based) I'm doing a bit of revamping of my M system and am planning to get my 21 SA converted. I might get a M6 too, so I am interested in hearing from someone who has had the 21mm Elmarit done. The last information that I had read said that the Elmarit was not a good candidate for the conversion because the shade and large front of the lens blocked so much of the frame.
