Bob, When you say:
"And the USM motors in the new lenses are a bit unnerving. They are perfectly silent. The lens just pops into focus!" What lenses are you referring to? My experiences with the DA* 16-50 and 50-135 are certainly not of "perfectly silent" and "popping focus". I'm not putting them down, just saying they were neither silent nor fast focusing.
