Now this is all set for Leica M lenses so no adapters . Trying to learn more about these. IHave not been following. I have a Zeiss 35 1.4 ZM coming tommorrow. Yea I finally broke down and bought one. Little arm twisting from our fearless leader. 
I have a casual wedding to shoot next week . Should be a fun lens
Yes, exciting innovation. The great news is that TechArt seems to be releasing firmware upgrades for this adapter. The current version is 3.0.
As far as I can tell, any manual lens can be adapted and have AF but there are some limitations.
The weight limit seems to be 700 grams but I wonder how it would work with my 900g C/Y 100-300mm.
Perhaps holding on the lens as support and the let the adapter do the focusing would work for heavier lenses.
@k-h.a.w posted his finding here. Very helpful info.
I\'m getting the adapter on Thursday and will test it with: 50/1.5C ZM, 35/1.4 ZM, 85/4 ZM, Leica 90/2.5, Contax 100/3.5, Contax 35-70/3.4 and Contax 100-300.
Mine comes Thursday as well. I\'ll be testing with some voigtlanders and I picked up a fotodiox Leica R to M adapter for my Leica R 28/2.8. Can\'t wait to give it a try.
