Perhaps this is no issue with the 35mm (I never looked at it). This also would allow an adapter with focus confirmation capability if this seems of any use. Just a thought - I will be anxious to see your results.

Interesting point, I will most likely take your advice as it will not only have more flexibility in use, it will also make it easier to sell on. Thanks a lot.
