I hate to say it, but the zealot is right. <gasp> FWIW, I would have liked to have seen a new mount introduced a few years ago, to run in tandem with KAF for a period of 10 years or more (which would then be phased out in favour of the new mount). This would then open the door to new technologies more compatible with modern cameras and lenses? Some have said before that the K mount is too small for certain things to happen? >bottom line, nobody does stop down >metering anymore for these simple reasons unless there has been >a mount change that necessitates using stop down on some old >incompatable mount Hmmm, this sounds familiar.... <g> Ultimately of course, people do one of four things: 1. Don't buy and use 'green button' cameras. 2. Buy and use green button cameras. 3. Switch to a competing brand. 4. Emigrate to Peru and live as a goat.
