Nice. :-)
I just got a note from Steve Gandy saying that he's expecting his
shipment of M-bayonet mount adapters in very soon. Now I'm working on
which lenses to sell so I can afford that and the Nokton 40/1.4.
Nice Canon 50/0.95 shots too. I assume the lens has been M-converted.
IIRC, the old Canon 50/0.95 rangefinder lens would fit LTM bodies but
the rangefinder calibration would be off. So all it takes is an
LTM->M-bayonet converter ... and with the G1, no one cares about the
rangefinder calibration, eh? ;-)

Yep, teeny G1 with teenier Nokton would definitely be bliss. I have my
eye on the G1.
The Canon f0.95 isn't really an LTM. It has an external bayonet that
only fitted the Canon 7 series. But I've seen plenty on the intertubes
with their mounts machined off and an M bayonet fitted. Drats that the
prices spiked after the M8 came around. They will surely spike some more
with the G1, now.
