Yeah, I saw that about a month ago. At $300 the price is too high IMHO and it attaches one to e-mount, something that I don't like. If one wants top performing AF lenses, then m4/3 is the way to go, incidentally $300 is awfully close to the price of many m4/3 star lenses, such as 45/1.8 Zuiko and 20/1.7 Pany.

I have been watching it but seems they cannot produce enough adapters even for the first pre-order batch.
So let see what the users will report.

It will be nice to have a m4/3 version but still even if the Nex one is good it makes sense to buy the adapter and Nex body.
I doubt any modern lens comes even close to Contax G primes, and there is a new trend now - to convert Leica M lenses to Contax G - it was the other way around before Wink
