Thanks for your reply. I hope Pentax will put this in the new firmware too. I'm still using MZ-S and sometimes I carry 2 cameras around. It will be a bit confusing when I swith between the two cameras.

I just got my K10D today and I'm very happy with it. I updated the firmware to V1.10 and wonder if I can set the front dial to change f.stop and back dial to change the shutter speed in M mode. Does anyone know if that's possible?

Thanks.

I have a MC Rubinar 10/1000. It's so wide that it cover my MZ-S grip. IST-DL2 grip is a bit thicker than lens mount part. So if you want to use a mirror lens on DL2 body, make sure the lens can fit on the camera.

Hope you can understand what I wrote. My english is not so good.

Thanks guys. I ordered a black one from beach camera yesterday and it's already on it's way. I'll see the quality with my own eyes soon. Too bad I can't get a silver one that I want.

Right, I completely agree and that's one of the reason I always buy the best lens my bank account allows, so that I don't have any excuse when I take bad pictures.

Thanks Kim. Too bad it's back-ordered. By the time they have it the rebate might be over. I think I should go ahead and order black one while I still can.

I came aross these websites today and it make me really wonder about the quality of the 77mm. It seem to me that the 77mm has much less detail than all 85mm lenses. Some how it also looks like pics from 77mm are brighter and less saturated. If someone has different opinion about the 77mm could you please share it with me?

PS. Should i create a new topic for this one?

I really want a silver 77. Anyone know where can I get it in US? Even B&H seems to have only the black one.
