Just because you are stuck in the 70s doesn't mean lens design has stayed there with you. ============================================================= I am not stuck in the 70's. I have repeatedly said that there are some great K/M lenses and I have not heard that they all suck on digital at ALL so that is moot.
Secondly since hardly any he PK lenses from any series even F/FA were designed for digital, why are you saying the later ones are better? I bet plenty of the K/M lenses are better than plenty of the later ones, so wouldn't it be better to be using whats best not whats newest? and with full AE support in the case of the K/M that are really good on digital?? Yes it would. jco ================================================================= 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 -----Original Message----- From: William Robb [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, September 23, 2005 1:21 PM To: Pentax Discuss Subject: Re: Camera engineering (was Re: Rename request) ----- Original Message ----- From: "J.

Beause newer lenses are often not showing the same problems that older ones are showing.
