Well *I* never thought that was what the J lenses were about :-) but your point is well taken. >It could in fact mean anything bu according to what has reached me >through the grapewine, admittedly in a very cryptic form, it should >mean something good. If Pentax were making som entry level stuff with >less than full coverage, then I would have expected the FA J lenses >to be such. Cool. Hope your information is correct. Then again, my sources tell me the J lenses have nothing to do with the *ist or *istD, but are mainly meant for cheap package kits with the MZ-60. Throwing away compatibility to a really huge extent, like building small-image-circle lenses for the DSLR, would *really* go against Pentax history. I'm feeling more confident they won't do something that dumb. -- Mark Roberts Photography and writing www.robertstech.com
