Wow!?
Robert Benson wanted to use a Noctilux 50 f/1.0 on a digital camera, and couldn't afford a Leica M9 at the time. He decided to figure out a way to make an EOS 5D Mark II take M lenses, which requires a lot of modification to the 5D Mark II.

This is a pretty astonishing accomplishment, and I love when people follow through on an “impossible” idea.
