The introductory material suggested that adapters could be used to mount Leica lenses, although without automatic focus and reduced auto exposure options. I have been using Olympus analog SLR lenses this way on my Olympus E-volt 500 for about a year with good results. Does anyone have any information about the progress of the micro 4/3 cameras? I have plenty of Leica lenses but can't afford a new M8. Larry Z
