You saw a 40mm for a really great price and hesitated? What kind of

Not really but I found a small yet strong metal equipment case essential to

Don't know but I can tell you this feature isn't going to help you a lot ;)

It isn't supposed to darken until an F5.6 lens is mounted...

Aye - one of my favorite focal lengths too - have 4 of them...
