I think I'm going to ask Pentax to completely change the lens mount so that none of JCO's lenses will work at all. That way he'll just explode or shut up for once and for all. Of course, the new lens mount will have 3.5mm more register so that NONE of his lenses can ever be adapted to it regardless of features, and it will be identical to the current one in all other respects with the sole exception being that no aperture position sensor will ever have been included with it.
It may be the only time in history that a perfectly good lens mount was abandoned to snub one irrational lunatic. But it would be worth paying them to do it, if only to hear this whack-a-mole scream. BTW, it's "Pentax DROPPED full K/M Support" not "is dropping". Ah, the bright spots in the day. :-) Godfrey On Oct 19, 2006, at 6:42 PM, J. C.
