Unfortunate it will also not take my beloved elmarit 24. It will take my also beloved elmarit 28. I already have the adapter, can't yet afford the 5D but hope to very soon. BTW: I was in Paris again on Tuesday and today. It was very strange. In August the French are on holiday and Tuesday was a bank holiday. Paris was deserted it looked like a small town, except for the obvious tourist places. On Place de la Concorde there was a Chinese wedding shoot going on and at palais royal I saw a fashion photo shoot. This guy was using a Pentax 67 and only using natural light, no flash! Film is not dead! Best thing, there was hardly any traffic. This morning it took only 45 minutes to get work instead of the 2 hours it can take normally. Cheers, Michiel Fokkema
