I have a converted Hologon 16mm (was Contax G) on the way and it should be here tomorrow. Could someone clarify whether the lens should be OK with the M8? In one post it appears that there needs to be some filing done to use the lens on "A".

Any info would be great. I am sure looking forward to using this lens! A funny thing.... the Hologon is the only lens I never bothered to buy for my Contax G2 and here I've bought a converted one for the M

Kent

ps- I responded to an old thread in the customer forum as well but I don't think that is the place to get info on the M8.
