My film lenses are fine on digital, but the DA* lenses are outstanding. I rarely use anything other than the 50-135 and 16-50 these days. They're fast and sharp, and the USM autofocus beats the screwdriver autofocus system hands down.

I should like to agree here.

My film limited lenses are swell on digital. Naturally, I should never want even to think about mounting DA 21 on my MZ-6.

Most of mine are 35mm.
Er, I meant digital-optimized 35mm lenses (like the D-FA macros).

All I know is, the DA lenses I own or have used perform immensely better than older 35mm lenses on digital. I'm a BIG fan of the DA line, and would
not like to have to go back to 35mm-format lenses.
