lens mounts and none of the new ones included an aperture ring. Nikon as usual is a mixed bag.
Contax? Leica hasn't but they've introduced a digital back for their film SLR's...

From time to time I get annoyed because Pentax ist-series doesn't supportthe apperture ring/aperture simulator (Grrr....). (For me, the main reason for staying with Pentax was the option to use old lenses/backwards compatibility - it still is though it's a PITA shooting in manual mode).
So my question is: Have other brands abandoned the aperture simulator/use of an aperture ring as well - or is it just Pentax???

The 43 is standard equipment for me on my MX. Great lens.
Speaking of C'est What (as we were earlier), I recall that my MX got to try out your 43 Limited for a few minutes whilst we were there. They looked very happy together. In fact, one of the nicest looking body/lens combos I've ever seen.
cheers, frank
