Hello from Norway!
Heading south. Saw the aurora, and another chance tonight so keep those fingers crossed for me. Back online properly on Monday. See you all then.

Hello from Norway!
Not so many I fear. One can only take so many photos of snow covered mountains in varying shades of grey :wink:. The camera has been a real star, surviving -20 and snow on a husky sledge, and still taking photos. The sun came out a couple of days ago, and made a big difference. We have seen ...

Some reasons why the UK prices are what they are.
Oversimplification on a massive scale... I wrote a while back: the K5 price is solid, the world over. And yes, I have checked. Lens prices are a different story, but you need to consider 1:1 pricing of $ against £ when considering exchange rates, duty, shipping and VAT (and personal imports a...

Some reasons why the UK prices are what they are.
I've moaned about this before, both here on this forum and elsewhere. When I moved to the UK from Hong Kong I was shocked at some of the insane prices, and even more shocked that UK residents seemed oblivious to it! Texting for example, people here think nothing of paying 20 or 30p for a single ...

Chinese artist spends months creating incredible camouflage pictures
Quite amazing actually. Lu Bolin is amazing. I saw a life-size exhibition of his work when I was in Chicago a couple of years back. It's some if the most visually impressive work I've ever seen. Google Image Search his name, there is an amazing shot of him blending into another person (a policema...

Lot of money
I Might be wrong but I don't think the Mamiya comes with a built in sensor and requires coupling with a "Back" which will set you back the same, if not more, than the body/lens combo. Cheerz MZ

Are Pentax getting too popular?
Hit the nail on the head on this topic here. Hammer went through the floorboard. :( I remembered holding back on buying a BNIB/SEALED FA 50mm 1.4 on eBay just before the K10D was announced. Just the other day I saw someone here posting a listing for a USED FA 50mm 1.4 for £250 I think. Yeah I kno...

Are Pentax getting too popular?
If once you were prepared to pay £20.00 for a 500mm 1:1.7, you might now be prepared to pay much more Agreed... I'd pay at least double that for such a lens :D I remembered holding back on buying a BNIB/SEALED FA 50mm 1.4 on eBay just before the K10D was announced. Just the other day I saw someon...

Welcome back! Long time no see. It is indeed good that Pentax are making an effort. They've certainly got lots to be proud of.

Excellent news! It's good to see Pentax showing what they can do, and promoting themselves again. Long may they continue Michael:)

I hope that they give away free bags! If you look at the previous galleries from focus it makes it look like the "Nikon Show" :D Only joking it's great to see them back again.

I just asked my shooting buddy if he wants to go to this show. I wouldn't mind some street photography around the NEC too. The canals and pub life is nice around there.

Does anyone knows if there is any official website for tickets and opening? Will the exhibition only be in Birmingham or will there be a exhibition further to the south at a later point?
