I sympathize with your individual position, but generally it's hardly fairWhat's more best K and M lenses are getting more and more pricey. I saw for instance SMC-K 85/1.8, which went on eBay for about 400$ (ther was many bidders). For similar price there was new 77/1.8 Limited - and no one was interested in this one! It looks like it will get cheaper to buy AF lenses than MF ones. Odd, but it is getting true, at last in case of the best and most wanted types.
to expect a digital SLR to be compatible with lenses which were superceded
decades before there _was_ digital. To me it will be fairly amazing if the
DSLR will be compatible with _any_ manual focus lenses, and not just the
FA's.
