Mark,

I haven't traded in any of my precious Nikon glass OR Leica glass. I'm
using all of it. And Minolta/Zeiss glass too. I haven't purchased any
of the '3 or 4 lenes' yet that Sony has produced, except for a crappy
18-70 kit lens I got with an a100 I bought once upon a time. I'm just
trying to inform the LUG of a new tool they might want to look into. I
like it and I thought they might too. I'm having fun with it and I
hope you enjoy your new D700. Let's go take some pictures.
