Hi Richard. My point is that there really was no face value in that letter to lead anyone to what the solution might be. One link stated a 4/3 while the other link stated a full frame (for R lenses) solution. Nothing in the letter of any substance so any substance drawn is pure speculation and desire. I am patient. Been so for 3 years now. Still plugging along, but these kinds of teasers are very frustrating.
