Thanks Douglas,The thing is that I can convert back, if need be, the lenses that I have "rebayonted". You just reverse the assembly order for the particular lens shown on the Leitax site. I have put all the bits for each R bayonet in a baggie and put them away in case I ever need to. In the meantime I can use the lenses rather than have them gather dust in a dry box. And if the R10 is late, has teething problems, or is too expensive for a retired chap like me I won't be too bothered.
Cheers Howard

Pity you'll have to convert back when the R10 comes :-) Cheers, Douglas
