lost ALL my gear!
On one occasion when i was at Kensington Olympia using a Chinon CP7m I had sold a friend I turned my back and the camera and bag was gone:oops:.. In the bag next to it was my Z-20, but that wasn't taken. I did a wedding a few years ago for a former friend, getting to the day I was really being me...

My camera is marked with an iTrak chip/sticker as are most of my valuable gear [ laptops , iPodTouch , passport etc ] I'm optimistic that this would help get it back - but I'm not totally confident . I also have the iTrak system (which BTW is UK based) for my most of my travel gear. One of their pac...

I sympathise, it is the sort of thing I have been known to do. I left my bag on a train once (I got it back although mysteriously my ME Super had ceased to work and needed repair) and on another occasion I left it under a table in a restaurant in Sighisoara. Luckily it was still there when I ran b...

Just seen this topic Mark, do hope you get some good news soon. Feel for you, I'd be gutted if this happened to me, really really nice to see all the good gestures coming out on this forum. To add to that I've got a 2 or 3 lenses that you could loan till you get back on your feet. Let us know. ...

Got your gear back, now the car's trashed, whatever next? Seriously, the car is easy to sort out, it just needs draining and refuelling (with the correct fuel). Only your wallet will suffer if it needs a tow.

Glad to hear you have all your kit back, it does restore your faith in humankind. Shame about the car though, you may be lucky I have had quite a few members of staff do this in the past and in each case no damage done. I would avoid ladders for a few days if I were you though:D Graham

Pour a litre of engine oil in the fuel tank before you drain it,,,My wife did my golf and the only way I could get rid of the full tank was to use the ignition to work the pump!.....drain it right off and refill with diesel, then keep refilling it every time it gets down to 3/4!....you should be ok!...

Somehow I slipped off the notifications (must have been work getting in the way of things). Now I see that you got your kit back. I'm relieved (as it was partly me to blame :)) and happy for you. Now you can go out and get some long exposures in! Prieni

Diesel is a lubricant, petrol isn't. diesel is the fuel of the devil:twisted: I know turbocharging and 16 valve technology has made diesel more 'liveable' but I would rather live with a petrol turbo giving 260 horses than diesel offering just 150 horses Glad you got the camera back... Your othe...

Pentax Wiki
Stickies could well be the way to go. We could perhaps have a submission of an 'article' (thread describing a subject) to be made a sticky. We could then have an accompanying thread discussing the accuracy of that article, and amendments could be made to the article by the Forum Gods until it was ...
