[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 398869, member: 9240"] I wasn't ridiculing, but I will now if you'd like. Let's use my favorite analogy when it comes to talking photography - [B][I]cars!![/I][/B] I didn't buy the tires because they fit my Ferrari, I bought them because I like the way they work on my Jeep. I'm more interested in driving fast than driving with tires that perform. Tires are tires right, and if the Ferrari can't use them then properly that's utter crap, because it's expensive and supposed to be a great car. If you had bothered learning just a [I]little[/I] about your n[I]ew[/I] camera and you[I] old[/I] lenses before you bought it then you would have known that you're going to live with undersized images and [I]all this vignetting crap[/I] from day 1. This is [I]far[/I] from what I would consider even remotely "normal" for anyone making "a huge upgrade in equipment". Perhaps they realize an accessory or two doesn't work or isn't compatible, but when a full 80% of your glass is only semi-compatible you'd think that would have come out in research and not as something you're puzzling out in a public forum, [I]because that's what people do [B][U]before[/U][/B] a "huge equipment upgrade".[/I] OK, now I'm done ridiculing. Hopefully you're lesson's been learned and you can figure out how to migrate down this road, because your "huge upgrade" has only just started. [/QUOTE]
