Actually, as the ZI is an aperture-priority camera, more appropriate 
comparison would be the M7 and/or the Hexar, I believe.

I'm casually in the market for one myself, though it would have to be 
a very good deal right now before I'd sink the money into it.
I do consider the optical qualities of my Zeiss Contax lenses to be 
fully comparable  to my `crons,  and see no reason to expect the 
Zeiss Ikons to be any less.

Quoth the G Hopkinson :
