This is not original, but since I have not found a Wish List for the Zeiss Ikon ZM camera: here you are:

It would be great if the ZI makers could think and come up with a new model that could use all old contax lens, perhaps providing an adapter to the old contax mount, as well as extra space for Biogons rear elements.

If that camera could have a digital version, it would be great too!

I love some of the simple things about the ZI, normal film loading, a film window, real rewind crank, beautiful RF/VF, however, a couple things are missing:

-1 or 2 stop extra shutter speed, it is a metal shutter after all...
-Shutter speeds displayed in the RF/VF
-A low magnification finder with built in 25mm frame lines but still accurate enough to focus a 50mm.

That's it I think? I would love for Zeiss to make a 25mm f2, I think a lot of users would like a wide angle lens (as opposed to a moderate 28 / 35) that can be useful in low light. I just can't be dropping 8 grand on a 24mm summilux but i want a nice wide for my RF kit.

Yes, I agree, plus a self timer (how much would that cost, just a bog stand 10 second one). Gap in the market for a 28mm f1.4. Or a stellar 13mm f5.6:eek:
