I would also assume that you'd be pretty nuts trying to focus your 75 - although...even though the 75 will be a 118 or something, it will have the depth of field of a 75 - so who knows. I'm assuming that realistically, the longest lens one will want to put on it is a 50. But we are all just stumbling around in the dark here. ;-) B.

On dpreview there is mention of something called "Radical line length 38.2 mm". Is this the baseline? Will I be able to focus my 75/1.4 (==> 115/1.4) accurately? Can I even use my 75 on it? - -dan c.
