And getting AI lenses converted to AIS is not difficult. I think Nikon's refusal to evolve their hardware is probably their biggest selling point with many pros. My joy at still being able to use my MF 300 f2.8 is vast...... (Metering is overrated on digital bodies anyway. I rarely if ever use it. i start with a guess and adjust through histogram, I suspect most luggers are the same way.)
