Seems okay with the "m" lens too. I would have sworn "on a stack of 
Bibles" that I checked that while using it in AF-s, but apparently not.

A few years ago when everyone was given up there pre-A lenses, I picked 
up a few bargains.  Frankly, I am glad I did.  Quite nice in terms of 
picture quality.  Of course, I have a few too many, especially m501.7, 
which I have 4. Those were had with the bodies, a few black beauties.
