Looks like the website is no longer supported/updated and most of the image samples are missing.
I'm aware of only Leitax offering Leica R lens conversion currently. SD1 owners seem to be quite content with native lens selection.

Don't bother modificating your SD. just plug art lenses on it and you'll get the best results.

A few first walkabout shots with a new, user sd1m and the 17-50 lens. Working fine but a sensor stain/spot on the upper right. We are currently enjoying a January thaw and breathing fresh air and soaking up as much sunshine that we can get while it lasts. All raws developed in Kalpanika Wrapper and DNG files processed in Lightroom. I didn't see much evidence of color casts with this lens/sensor combination so didn't need to use the color correction script.

Very interesting. Thanks.
I just tested the Kal. Wrapper with some older SD1 images taken with the 8-16mm and 17-50mm lens and there is indeed no color cast.
Same time i think, these conversions lack a bit of the special "Merrill/SPP/3D" look. Textures are less pronounced. Not so good for landscapes but interesting for skin tones/portraits.
(similar to Iridient Developer actually)

Good to have options.

Two more sd1M shots developed with Kalpanika Wrapper. These were taken with the 24-105 Art lens and did have color casts in the DNG files requiring correction with the Lightroom flat field plugin. Subject is an old caboose sitting on a piece of track behind our local marina.

We have been setting all time record high temperatures for February this year and today was another record at 77 degrees F. I went to Buttermilk gorge, but the trail was still closed so just drove on up the hill to some barren fields for the second picture. SD1M + 17-50
