Looks like they use a completely different casing when converting to Leica so cost may be unjustifiable. Really wanted to get feedback on using the lens with an adaptor for a digital camera. Might be better to just sell as is and rebuy a newish Leitz 21mm. Have a 21mm voigtlander with LTM which could probably go too!
