Emanuel, although not do until May, the listed price for the ZI is $1617.

Rubin, it would appear that these are the same distortion-free Biogons, 
judging by the data on www.zeissikon.com. The 35/2, in particular, seems 
like a big step up from the 35/2 for the Contax G, which was a Planar. Since 
Zeiss reports measured MTFs, their data should be reliable & this new 35/2 
shows almost zero distortion.
