It's not a "problem" since I'll never be using that lens on the D800E. There are plenty of 50's for it, including the AF-S 50mm f/1.4G SIC SW which is one of the best modern 50's out there. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
