I personally would rather not have to think about so many steps in taking a picture just to add the correct aperture to the EXIF. Maybe for a very slow, meticulous landscape photographer it would be worth it, but I\'d rather get the exposure right every time, rather than risk missing the photo due to the complex sequence of adding the correct aperture. It looked good on paper, and it was a nice thought, but I\'d just fix the aperture to the max aperture and leave it there.
[edited, just realized my suggestion wouldn\'t work on alt lenses with adapter]
I think you put out a good product, and the new microadust is a very good addition. Your \"feature\" of allowing actual aperture settings in the EXIF is a double edged sword, meaning it\'s going to surprise a lot of customers when they get bad exposures (because they don\'t follow your instructions).
The english is a small problem. I generally get what you are saying in the emails, and I assume it\'s the same on your end. That has not stopped me from ordering in the past. I like your attitude very much.

One thing that would be nice, which Bo-Ming does, is to allow for microadjustment of the AF at several zoom settings for each lens. Now that would be something quite different from other offerings. In his 17-35 Contax lens, you can microadjust at 3 or 4 focal lengths, like 20mm, 24mm, 28mm, and 35mm (I forget the exact ones he uses). Although most here have never had this, it makes a big difference, because my lens required significantly different microadjustment at different focal lengths. I believe Canon does this when you send a zoom lens in for microadjustment, though I\'m not certain of it.
