I do believe they do have 60mm adapters. Last count I think more than 5 or 6 Leica lenses use the 60mm mount. There are several just in the M line. The 21mm 2.8, Noctilux and 75 Summilux. Then all the R lenses that use that size. Besides, considering the M cameras are more adapted to photojournalism and available light photography, I don't think an extensive filter program is called for. Face it, you use the M system for commercial type photography, but I just don't think rangefinder cameras are suited to that kind of photography as SLRs are. But whatever works for you. Leica has to design for the main target audience, and people with color meters aren't the main target audience, I suspect, for the M6. ========== Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO http://www.ponyexpress.net/~ewelch Some people say that I'm superficial, but that's just on the surface.
