I didn't know that... It feels like "a must have" functionality but I'm not sure it is a good reason to migrate to Nikon though...
I have the following Nikon primes and none of them show focus shift (and I usually use the 20mm, 50mm, 85mm and occasionally the 105mm Ai-S set to close focus):
- AF 20mm f/2.8D
- AF 50mm f/1.8D
- AF 85mm f/1.8
- AF-S 105mm micro VR f/2.8
- Ai-S 105mm f/1.8
- Ai-S 135mm f/2.8
But again... I believe this does not change the fact that a lens should be bought after trying it.

of course i'll be trying it out first before i buy them <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

thanks for the info on those prime, i looked into them and they are cheaper than the g version, and as you said, no focus shift <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> , also they have aperture rings for my m4/3. i'll be considering them.
thank you
