That's why it's often paired with the 1.7x AF adapter - my eyes aren't up to manual focus, either. Plus, of course, I've got the 80-200/f2.8 which covers me up to 200mm - albeit at a substantial weight penalty - and allows me to use any auto-focus point; the AF adapter limits me to only using the central AF point, which can sometimes be a problem. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
