Not quite, the EVF will brighten the viewfinder of a manually stopped down 
lens

It looks very well made as one would expect. But I believe there is no auto 
aperture function so using R lenses on the M is not so very different than 
using R lenses re-bayonted on my Nikons. Not the "adequate" solution we 
former R users were promised IMHO. But perhaps I am just still smarting a 
bit from Leica abandoning us R users so finally and firmly. Looking forward 
to your pictures Tina.
Cheers

Yes, from Leica.  I've been waiting forever for them to be available.  I got 
mine from Park Square Camera.

Here are the specifics:

They seem very well made.  I'm going out to play with them.
