See my previous post re. Nikon. There's no reason to assume that this won't spread. > Pentax have the best backwards compatibility in the industry. The fact remains that Pentax has camera bodies that cannot use K/M series lenses, and that they now have lenses that cannot be used on K/M series bodies. How is this different from Nikon? Sure, you have to spend a bit more with Nikon (F100 body vs. MZ-6), but the basic concept is the same. Before the FAJ lenses, every new lens would work perfectly on any K/M series body. Now this isn't the case. Sure it's just two for now, but who knows whether or not Pentax is going to follow Nikon's lead? > Huh? They have. In fact, I can't think of no other camera manufacturer > who has stated what they want to do mor eclearly than Pentax. Perhaps, but I can think of several who have actually done what they stated. Saying that you want to do something (which Pentax is very good at) and actually accomplishing it are two different things. chris
