There has been so much talk about this lens, that seeing one second hand is becoming too much of a temptation. Of course, I have no camera body, but what the hell ;-), I'll worry about that later. I suspect I should look at getting a body when I visit Tokyo in April, but there are some nice used ones at my dealer at present; 6.2, 7 and 8, so the options are there, but till then, is there any way of using R lens on the M body, or on a Minolta non-autofocus mount? If adaptors are available, where might I start looking? Oh, I may need some lessons on using the lens. It would seem to focus within dangerous proximity of the front element, and I presume has in built filters. TIA Alastair
