They were listed as "in production" or just that they had them available? This is a big difference. Like I said, I hold no illusions that the brand new SMC-F 50mm f1.4 was made any time recently, despite the fact that it was available new from Pentax Canada. Likewise the SMC-A* 400mm f2.8. It's just a slow moving product that they still had stock of. Anyways, the mirrors will meter just fine because they only operate wide open. -Aaron -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
