I have no need for this lens to cover 24x36mm.
A 20mm lens for that format does the job I want to do just fine.
Why should I pay the difference in price for something I don't
need or
want?
It's just something to carp about. Really, how many people who
complain
about its coverage would buy it for their 35mm film cameras if it
covered
full frame and cost nearer to the Nikons and Canons?
How many people complaining about the potential non-compatibility
of the
new high end lenses with old gear are buying new high end lenses
for their
old gear?
How many people complaining that the FA* lenses are hard to get
actually
want to buy one?
How does pointing out why something is the way it is (that's all
Rob did)
automatically get classified as carping, or an argument about needs
and
wants?
