If the Japanese are doing it now for the Voightlander, I imagine Leica can figure it out. You may just have to introduce a new edition of your Screw mount book to cover all these new lenses ;-) Regards, Robert >The real cost is that of fabricating those bloody 39mm by 26 tpi threads. >The rest of the mount would be inexpensive to make. > >Marc > >msmall@roanoke.infi.net FAX: +540/343-7315 >Cha robh bas fir gun ghras fir! > >
