Quote:I do care about EXIF because I sometimes want to find picture, taken with a wide angle, wide open and close up. So I need focal length, aperture and distance.
Except of the latter (which is not available in my converters from Fuji, but from Nikon), I can usually find these kind of pictures quickly. To me that's an advantage of digital photography. And I don't want to go back to film with no data at all.
Regarding price I found there wide angle + shift macro well priced at first. Then, with bit more insight in poor mechanical design, not very well thought features and the absence oF EXIF I also can agree with you. For what the lenses are, they became expensive.
Where did you read something about "poor mechanical design"? I do not disassemble the lenses (given my related talents - or lack thereof - I wouldn't dare to do so anyway) but they "feel" very sturdy to me.
Their biggest weakness - other than the lack of electronics - is flare - so far at least.
