The only one I've heard of is the Hologon, and it is very expensive. Given
that leica covers all the other lenses, the conversion cost would seem too
high for other focal lengths.

Cheers

I understand that someone modifies Contax lenses to fit the M mount. Is this

true and if so who sells them in the US? Are these Contax G lenses? How do 
they compare to Leica lenses and what do they cost? Any info on this will be

greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Zack
