Different body, George.......not an M9 body.... totally possible for a
totally new camera.

For a Visoflex type solution to add to an M9.... I did say .....thin .....
must knock off 20.95mm, or about 5/8 of an inch.....

The problem is then that all you have is a Leitax solution with a M9
sensor... no AE, no AF, no Auto Aperture.....

Minimum?  Adequate?

Maybe not after all....

not optically possible.
not enough room for a 24x36 mirror.

and ccd will not allow for EVF
