Sony A850. They *have* to go full-frame now, and probably a year or so earlier than they were planning/expecting. So normal has moved. It's probably moved off the careful sensor availability schedule, too. I'm expecting that the DFA 50/1.* -- I've seen a rumoured screen grab for a DFA 50/1.0 -- probably got kicked way up the priority queue, while the DA* 30/1.* got kicked down, and there's a vehement discussion about whether or not to discontinue the FA31, if the optical design for the 31 should be transfered directly to the DA*30, etc. -- Graydon -- 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.
