That's one very nice set up ... if you buy them.
Look at it this way .... if you get them and don't like the body .... sell it/them, or buy a different body for the lenses. You'll have a warranty as back up, and provided you haven't paid over the top for the items, what little you lose can be thought of as a "hire" fee to try it all out. I have done this several times and kept the items I liked and sold (sometimes at a profit!) the ones I didn't. I've had lots of pleasure and experience thrown in for free too!
I am not at all concerned with what Kyocera do with the MF(ABF!) line. There are thousands of good used cameras and lenses available, which will outlive me (my needs!).
Just look at all those enthusiasts with the older Zeiss systems. Well, OK, maybe I'm not comparing like with like, but I've enough faith in the "modern" CX's not too worry. My attitude is that you could mount a Zeiss lens on a shoebox and still get good images
I can't tell the difference between a shot on an "ancient" FR or my AX ..... I just love using my AX to supplement my eyesight, and for its versatility.
I've owned nearly every modern vanilla CX cameras, the Previews, S2b, Aria and RXII are the exceptions. My favourites are (in decending order) the AX, 137MA, RTS II/RTS III(joint) and ST. You may find the 137MA's position a bit odd but I like a no-frills camera sometimes and often use it or an FX-3 super 2000 as my back-up.
Sorry, I sold my 85/1.4 before I bought the AX. Never owned a 35/1.4. I could put a 35/2.8 or 28/2.8 on, or a Tamron 80-200/2.8 SP, set to 85!
Send me a private message if you would like the full macro table from the AX manual (200KB).
Cheers, Bob.
