Just like the DF. nikon said they were going to introduce stuff with higher margins, and these are two examples.
If you have a look at Roland Vinks' site (http://www.photosynthesis.co.nz/nikon/se...tml#50slow) you'll see that there's more than 10 variations just for the 50mm f1.8!
Anyway, I wasn't being serious.
As for the price of the Nikkor 58mm, I'm sure Nikon have their reasons. They're not a bunch of fools there, you know.
