Newly released, designed for mirrorless and full frame 35mm cameras...would work flawlessly on the new M with live view or the EVF. The whole package with bellows, Schneider lens, focusing rails, and camera adapter is only €1299 (incl VAT, so likely less for those of us out of the EU). It will definitely be a purchase I consider after I get the M.

It mentions the degrees it is capable of shifting and tilting, which is enough for many still life and architectural applications...so it's not just a macro set up, though standard 35mm lenses adapted to the bellows will not focus to infinity.

Wow, NICE! That bad boy on an M would truly be epic. Macro and architecture indeed. You wouldn't really use such a setup, nor need one for infinity shooting per se... But still a small disappointment. I suppose you could just stop down to cover it, provided you weren't trying to do whacky focal plane manipulations.

Old bellows and rails are cheap these days, but are really large. This is a nice small package with an amazing lens :). All for less money than a good t/s lens or a great macro lens (ie the Leica APO 100mm)

It looks fairly light also; all the blue bits being anodized aluminum. All together it doesn't even weigh a pound (@ 0.9lbs.).
