Jeez, you would think they could at least do F4 constant in the reduced APS format like they have done in the past on FF 35mm format many times. jco -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bruce Dayton Sent: Wednesday, March 14, 2007 3:33 PM To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List Subject: Re: The DA 50~200
