That's not an issue Doug. a) Pentax issues a new DSLR model every 6 months. b) USM is by definition entitled to be disruptive. I said it the other day too; this is nothing to do with backward compatibility (which I value a lot). > to me. I am more concerned with accuracy than speed. This is a very fair point, as are all your points re focal length, who this will benefit etc. Kostas -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
