Though the $199 crop circle 1.8 tiny new 35mm lens gets me more ecstatic than the 1.4 full frame 35mm out this week for thousands an weighs a ton and looks like Tupperware. The 1.8 DX looks like a Barbie and ken accessory in front of a hunking hulking d3. Is sharp as heck. Me I'd pay more for compactness but I get to pay less. -------------------- Mark William Rabiner Photography mark at rabinergroup.com > From: "T.
