Well, then you're into a long wait. I don't expect to see 24x36mm sensors being available in volume production quantities for at least 3-5 years, and the price will likely be quite a bit higher for a while beyond that. > The current trend for not putting the aperture ring on the lens really isn't > to my taste either, it worked perfectly on the well for years, it's the > logical place to control the diaphragm from. If it isn't broke don't fix it! I've grown very comfortable with having both shutter speed and aperture setting controllable from the body, to the point that reaching for an aperture ring elsewhere seems awkward now. On the Contax G2, manual focus was also controlled from the body ... That took some getting used to. :-) Godfrey __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?
