Hi Steve,

That's a good deal if the program was extended. I thought it was a  
bad idea to discontinue the program considering the shortage of most  
of the lenses new. I hope they start catching up on their coding  
backlog though. I know awhile back they ran out of some of the coded  
mounts from Solms which really extended the turn around time.
