I've about reached that point.  I cannot make myself get rid of my A-28, A-50 
1.7, or M-40... but I don't really use them much, either.

The A-50, especially, feels so fantastically SMOOTH when focusing that I just 
want to keep it because it feels like a real gem.

But with an F-50 1.7 in hand, and a DA-L 35 on the way... these older ones are 
just going to end up on the shelf.

Only tricky lenses to replace are the Tamron 90mm and "K" 135 f/2.5.  There 
doesn't appear to be any such thing as inexpensive AF alternatives to these two.
