Charles & All,

Here's a fly in the ointment.

The new generation of digitally optimized lenses that all of the 
manufacturers are "Suggesting " that we use and also say that are for use on 
Digital 
bodies only are a farce!

I mean that they are fine for digital sensors, since the sensor is in the 
center of the lens, but what we can infer from this, and the fact that Canon's 
digital lenses have a non-mountable lockout feature for film bodies, is that 
edge definition is JUNK!!

This is like using a vivitar, et al, non-series one lens from earlier times. 
Namely garbage.

This is food for serious thought guy's.

We're getting charged a premium price for single-purpose lenses so now we can 
all buy, (and carry around), two sets of lenses so that we can use both 
digital and film bodies. 

Talk about GREAT MARKETING STRATEDGY, the Harvard MBA's have struck again!!

Just a thought
