Patience! The Arsat is a quite superb lens, even more than I expected, and I'm hoping to get some trannies back this week.

TRULY the way to go, Graham. Yes, the bodies have really dropped in price to an amazing level. But the 645D has
sure punched up the lens prices. Nothing wrong at ALL with the Russian lenses. I'll put it this way: they are FAR better
than I could ever catch up to in my photography. This Volna, for instance, is a KILLER for supressing flare, at least
from what I've seen. Must be all those purple and green coatings. 
Just ask Attila. He knows how the Russian lenses are for quality.
As far as producing images, all you have to do is point and shoot, man.

William I actually DO have 2 rolls of Adox 25 in 35mm. The only 35mm camera I have left is the Pentax ZX-5N plastic
fantastic. I even sold off the Contax AX, much as I hated to. But, I am whittling things down to what works best for me.
You know how it is, things come and things go. I plan to take a stroll with the Sonnar 180/2.8 on the ZX-5N. P6 > PK adapter.

It DID fit me, darn it. I just HAVE to cut things down, and will end up with probably the
Pentax 645 (for sure), and either the X100 or X10.
By the way, I'll always thank you for getting me into the AX and its beautiful lines and
wonderful features. At least now I know about the camera, and since my life is not exactly
over yet, there may be another one in my quiver.
