Marc

Sorry for the confusion.

You are absolutely correct. The new N mount is for both film and digital
bodies. However, I am told that this new mount had to be developed to allow
full frame coverage of the sensor in the N digital, though it would appear
that the film cameras will (have?) reached the market first.

Contax couldn't use their existing lenses and it is these to which I refer.

Apologies for the ambiguity.
