chris of the three lenses i have with me, two have the us and one
don't, even though they are all usa lenses.


speaking of  fixes, i shoot with both canon and nikon af systems and
my nikons break more than canons. so far the score is 5 repairs for
nikon and one for canon. may be nikon know what kind of stuff they
make.


on the canon side, i know for sure they don't care about gray or usa,
they will fix anything. i might even send my nikon there next time.

right now i am on the road with a broken d2h meter and r2a with the
ziess 50/2 (the new one). the r2a is working double duty both as a
camera and lightmeter for the d2h
