[QUOTE="Leif, post: 617172, member: 42585"] I don't doubt that there are a lot of forum users who like you have lots of manual focus lenses. But, if we look at actual buyers of the D7200 for example, how many value such lenses? I have a couple, but the IQ is no match for modern lenses, which have better optical designs and coatings. The 200mm F4 AIS micro that I sold was mediocre at best, the 75-150mm F3.5 zoom has low contrast, the 28mm F2.8 AIS has a weird colour cast though it is sharp. Can you give me a minute head start, so I can get away please, I'm not a fast runner? Oh blimey, there's a whole long line of people running after me, carrying pitch forks, and burning torches and chanting "Burn the witch", it's only a camera folks ... :) Of course I might be wrong about the importance of manual lens compatibility, so it would be nice to have some solid evidence (for either view) rather than opinion.
