SUMMARY
Funleader has developed conversion kits that allow vintage Contax G Zeiss lenses to be adapted for Leica M mount cameras. The latest kit converts the Contax G 28mm f/2.8 Biogon, preserving its high-quality Zeiss optics within a Leica-style housing with manual focus. This solution provides a significantly more affordable way to achieve the desirable "Zeiss pop" and sharpness, costing under $500 compared to thousands for equivalent native Leica lenses.
TAKEAWAYS
Funleader's kit converts autofocus Contax G Zeiss lenses to manual-focus Leica M mount.
The G28 Conversion Kit uses the original Biogon optical design for sharp, contrasty images.
This alternative costs under $500, a fraction of the price of comparable Leica lenses.
Funleader plans future conversions for other focal lengths to revive vintage optics.
