Yes indeed, there are TWO versions.

Type A multi format for film/M9, M8/8.2, and the RD1

Type B for MICRO 4/3 cameras.

Sweet.

The difference should be crop factor, not aspect ratio. The type B has up to 2X crop factor, which is useful for most micro 4/3 cameras.

No I have not seen it yet. But the information has been around for quite sometime.

Type A comes with normal, 1.3X and 1.5X markings.
Type B comes with normal, 1.3X and 2.0 X markings.

You can see an image of the Type A with the 'magnified' focal length windows for 1.3X and 1.5X scales.

Cheers,
