Yeh for my voigtlander lens. :thumbsup:

The website states that it is equip with a APS Size Sensor. Dose that means that there will be a 1.5-1.6 multiplication on all the lens?

That means that my 21mm with be a 21x1.6= 33.6mm ??? :dunno:

$6000 USD was supposed to be the projected price for the Leica version, a prototype of which does not yet exists, a mention of which was found only in a Leica press release.

the Bessa digital is likely to be much cheaper, they already have something to show, and more news is coming in March. That is to me the biggest news at PMA, overshadowing over the EOS 1D Mk II.

Nice photo Kenghor :thumbsup:

If you use the first version of Elmarit M90 (the one with removable head) with the viso universal mount (#16464), and mount it on your EOS300D using adaptors, you would be able to focus from close range all the way to infinity. juz fyi.

(Too bad, any M lenses shorter than 65MM would only work with the 300D in close-up range!)
