You mean they converted the AF lens to Leica M manual focus? Wow! I guess if I had an investment in an M I would like to have a Zeiss lens like the 16mm.
Other way around Peter. There was no other high-tech solution for an ultra-wide angle at that time, though Cosina has since come out with some 12mm lenses and the like. And with a Leica M, you don't need auto-focus: the Leitz Spirit does it all for you. <he grins>
