Re: Pentax <--> Canon

It was during the Korean War when Nikon was able to get some 
photographers to try their lenses in Leica screw mount. Based on the 
positive results they got with the lenses they tried the RF Nikons. By 
the time Nikon released its first SLR they already had a reputation for 
world class lenses.

I agree that the pros opted for Nikon before AF, but it had little to do
with the qualit of Nicon screwmount rangefinder lenses.
