LOL ... No, not at all. But NOT buying a perfectly good DA series  
lens for your DSLR simply because it does not cover 35mm film format  
is senseless to my way of thinking.

(Although I had and didn't like the FA31 all that much, have not been  
too interested in the FA43, the FA77 is a delightful lens. I'd more  
than likely prefer the DA70 now, however, but I bought the FA77  
before the DA70 was available.)

I hardly use the FA135 very much at all since I bought the FA77. Most  
of my shooting in recent months is with the DA21, FA35, FA77. Sure  
would like a DA35 and DA70...
