Now what's the logical problem with my selling off the 28 1.4 or 14 2.8 so I can buy a D700 or D3? Perhaps I should make a Flo chart. My mid range nikon glass people would give me chump change for the stuff. A third of what I got it for. I'm not going to just give it away and pretend I'd sold it. I can use the stuff. My Leica glass has held its value and is premium stuff.. I'm looking forward to getting going in front of a digital M camera. But that's part II not the beginning and a bit down the road. As I've been at this for thirty three and a third years I'm in it for the long haul. Not retiring. So I don't need the thing this month or next month. [Rabs] Mark William Rabiner
