For what it's worth, I'd pay the extra $35 for the feature. That's about £18 GBP, which doesn't buy a whole hell of a lot in the UK. But I doubt it will ever be implemented, I'm glad I can still use my older lenses with the K10D but I've moved on years ago, keeping the "K" series lenses though. I'd rather not be involved in a heated debate or slanging match, if I'm prompted I WILL NOT reply.
