I have two or three A lenses in my kit, and it would be nice to see how well they work on both cameras. It may not be too spendy to pick up a couple-three more A series for the digi. Just a thought - and I suspect you have more A glass than I. > That's my thinking - that's why I asked "Is the *ist DS 'good > enuf'?". > [...] there certainly are a lot of digital "veterans" on the List > now, so I am hoping to garner some erudite opinions. True, but there are no, or maybe but one or two (in Europe) istDS veterans on the list (and they couldn't bee too much a veteran, IAC), so it would seem that, to some extent, our questions are a bit premature. > Thanks for the insights, Shel. Insights? Gee, I thought I just posed more questions <LOL> There's a way for me to go before becoming "insightful" wrt digi cams. Heck, I just learned what a pixel is (or is not). Anyway, glad my ramblings may have been helpful.
