Hmmm.... at that price, I'm almost tempted to buy several.
The NIKOES adapter stays with the lens, not the body, when swapping lenses.
It is a pain in the butt to have to swap the adapter from lens to lens in
the dark.

The red response issue is quite a deal with the unmodified cameras, but I
didn't
want to get too deep into that here on a film list.  It has been hammered
to death on the digital.astro group, so no need to buzz through it here
again.  Besides, you need to buy my book to get all the lowdown on this
digital SLR stuff <g>.
