Wow!

I think my DP1M is going to awaken from it's slumber and start a new life.

I think it is.  Although  not equal to the DP0, it is quite a bit better than I expected. I have ordered step-up  (DP1/2/S/X) and step-down (Quattro) rings.  I tried it on the DP2M and there was major issues as regards sharpness.  I will try the DP3M.  If it works on the DP3M I could carry the 1 and 3 and cover the same range as the DP Quattros.

Looks like really nice lens, Rick.

It's a pity I don't have a DP1 Merrill.

There is a newer albeit heavier converter the gw-4. It's tested here on a dp1Q:

I still use my DP1 with my Nikon converter for lovely relatively WA results. Just use f/8 or smaller and you're fine.

I am quite impressed by the image quality, considering that the corners of the DP1m are not that sharp to begin with.
CA is relatively pronounced, but fixable for sure.
