That's because the advantage is not yours, it's to the manufacturer, they can produce a cheaper interface and then add a heap of "functionality" that they can then use in marketing. Regardless of the stream of arguments that have been produced to support the dropping of aperture ring support I would still like to see it and I would pay more for a body that had it. We know it's possible to produce a body that provides control via aperture ring and control dial but apparently it's just not something we need. -- Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~distudio//publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998 -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
