Which clever/cunning/wise person has collected all the images on the zeiss site and pasted them together?

Does anybody offer an adapter to connect my 25mm 2.8 to my Nikon D1???
 
Here's the CZ Photokina 2004 exibition list:

- Digital SLR cameras
- Compact cameras
- Lenses for digital receiving systems
- Lenses for large and medium format cameras
- Lenses for video cameras
- Lenses with fixed focal length
- Lenses with variable focal length
- Adapter for digital cameras
- Soft focus lenses
- Binoculars, telescopes
- Magnifiers
- Prismatic glasses
- Other optical products and trade goods for specialized photographic trade
- Other accessories for optical products and trade goods for specialized photographic trade
- Telescopes

Notice the cameras - is that because they show other make cameras that take their lenses, e.g. Contax? Anybody remember what they listed for 2002?
 
More and more interesting DJ. Lots to whet our appetities there. Looking forward to it.

One missing piece. Film or Digital?
 
Looks exciting, can't wait. Do you think it might take G lenses? We don't know ... the waiting is getting excruciating.

2.8/28mm Biogon I presume but there look to be slight differences between the existing G lens and this one. Having invested in all 6 G series primes I would like to declare an interest here.
 
Not that I'm an expert but a further thought has wandered into my head and lingered long enough for further evaluation...

From the little I understand of it I would have thought that the Biogon design won't work properly with existing digital sensors. That would mean film, unless somebody has been very, very clever indeed.
 
It looks like a film camera but I suppose that may not mean anything. Another newsgroup suggested that it will have Leica mount Contax G series lenses and is a Cosina/Zeiss co-operation being a rebadged Bessa R3A.
