I attended this year's Photokina last month. I've seen two Leica's on display fitted with a Contax G-Hologon lens. = Conversion to Leica M isn't cheap and can even be reversed back to = Contax G. A German firm does the conversion for DM 1790,- (German Marks), you'll = have bring in your own Contax G-Hologon though. It's also possible to = order the G-Hologon plus the conversion. (In their catalog the G-Hologon = is listed for DM 4798,-) Note: Lenses are converted by special order only, no serial production. = Not to be used with Leica M5 or Leica CL.
