Re: Pentax <--> Canon

[Bruce Rubenstein]

Are all Nikon lenses created equal? No. They make cheap lenses and they 
make expensive ones. The more expensive ones cost more for a reason. 
There are a couple of MF Nikkor lenses that haven't changed optical 
formula over many years (50/1.4 and 105/2.5), but the "mechanicals" have 
gotten cheaper (or at least the lenses are smaller and lighter). The 
optics, on the other hand (for lenses that have been revised and updated 
over the years) have gotten better. If anything, the competition from 
Canon keeps the pressure on Nikon to maintain their standards.

much more about Pentax lenses), but wasn't that "then" and now is, well
"now"? Isn't it possible that Nikon lenses have changed over the years?
