Some posters seem to think that by inflicting their service complaints on me (us) through the list, the retailers will somehow be strong-armed into conceding the alleged wrongs. To those posters I would like to suggest that you are mistaken. To the extent that it is just good business, the retailers would like to keep everyone happy, but that is not their reason for being. I, on the other hand, have to compete with my children for Internet time, and resent wasting my limited time suffering through complaints that do not belong in this forum. I won't buy from B&H just to get revenge, but it will add to the enjoyment of my purchases. To make this Nikon specific: the AF85f/1.8 is a lens, not a maraca. If you don't like the noise it makes when you shake it, don't shake it like a maraca. Thanks to Ed Yost for responding about programing the N90s to leave the leader out on rewind.
