Re: Plastic lens mount on the FA J 18-35?
Hey Herb, How do you like that Sigma 15-30 lens? Looks like the hood is not removable? Has that caused any problems? That looks like a great lens, but you can't find them in the Pentax mount. Where did you get yours?

Re: Plastic lens mount on the FA J 18-35?
IF is not necessary, just a non rotating front is all that's needed.

That would depend on which way it was easiest and cheapest to build. You're probably right but we'll see in time.

Plastic lens mount on the FA J 18-35?
Seems like it here: http://www.dpreview.com/news/0303/03030304istdinhand.asp It is probably going to be cheap then. The FA J lenses seems to be strictly entry level. Pål
