If I were one handed I'd agree. I can appreciate how it may be an advantage as you seem to be pretty keen on zoom lenses, that means that all your left hand needs to do is adjust the FL assuming you use AF. It's the same as the green button kludge for older lenses, it works but no one can really argue that it's as practical or convenient as a coupled lens. -- 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
