Actually, good point. I prefer an aperture dial on the camera body for telephoto zooms, but I think I would prefer an aperture ring for wide angles. In fact, as you know, I use the SMC-K15mm 3.5 on the Canon, and using the aperture ring on that is super fast, considering my kludge there is open aperture for focus (if necessary), then stop-down and shoot (in Av). -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=====| http://www.cottysnaps.com _____________________________ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
