Every once in a while, I open a post or two of this thread just to see where it's going (I am just curious. I have no "classic" lenses. The last one I had was M40/2.8 which I parted a few years ago).
I always find that the thread is going nowhere. Just circling and circling. I have no idea who is right and who is wrong on their contention, and I am not even interested in knowing. But it seems to be simple. I can understand JCO's sentiment, as a long time user/collector of Pentax gear, that he wants to be able to use most, if not all, of his lenses for the latest DSLR, whether bought new or used, particularly when he thinks that it won't be too big a deal to include an aperture "stimulator". This is very understandable and I am sure there are many other Pentax users like him. He started rather innocently, but this quickly turned into a flame war, eventually carrying his initial in the thread title. Every time I see my PDML mail box, "The JCO survey" subjects occupies huge space. Now, it appears the battle of JCO vs so many others. Some even leave only the naming and parting shots without any relevant argument. By now, under this situation, and the way this battle has been going, everybody is pretty sure that JCO is not going to back down, no matter what. Sometimes, things get too hot and emotional that it appears that people lost the logic and proper rationale. Now I believe it crossed the line of entertainment value and started poisoning the list. Can you not drop this once and for all, and give us more invaluable info? Yes, I learned a lot about this aperture stimulator stuff already, but it did not require hundreds of posts. Now as of midnight EST tonight, could you stop this, everybody declaring the victory? :-). Ken -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
