Back to Pentax - What shall I buy?
Mike what do you think? K10D or K20D, or maybe K20D main camera, and K10D support? Is K10D works with powerzoom and SDM and other super-sonic motors? I've tried K7 and K5 in my local shop today, nice cameras, but too small for me;)

Back to Pentax - What shall I buy?
I've tried K7 and K5 in my local shop today, nice cameras, but too small for me;) I thought exactly the same but put a grip on them and they become the same size as the K10D/K20D. Take the grip off and put on a DA LTD and you have an excellent compact street shooting camera. K10D works with all t...

Focus on Imaging - good for deals ??
Are there good deals to be had at this show - or is it just a trade show with no actual sales taking place? I'm still thirsting for the K5 ! Martyn

Focus on Imaging - good for deals ??
There are sales taking place, but the last couple of times have seen a dramatic reduction in the number of freebies. I think better deals can often be made after the show, in the cold light of day.

Focus on Imaging - good for deals ??
Looking at the retailers who are there I don't think you'll get prices anywhere near SRS. I doubt you'll be able to purchase off the Pentax stand.

Focus on Imaging - good for deals ??
Several of my best buys have been at the Focus show. Some large dealers do deals which ARE cheaper than even the 'cheap' internet prices. I have also bought very good priced used gear at the show.

Focus on Imaging - good for deals ??
Camera World (London) who have very competitive prices to start with usually have even cheaper prices at the show. Cecil Jacobs usually have prices lower than their normal ones and often cheaper than anywhere else (including SRS) and I have seen several well prices Pentax items each time I have been...

Focus on Imaging - good for deals ??
I'll be stocking up on things like printer paper - there were good deals to be had with Ilford last year and I got a good deal on my Epson V600 Scanner too. I find it's more about accessories and peripherals than cameras and lenses personally - although I may pay closer attention with Pentax there t...

Magazines as a whole need to either up the editorial content, and cut back on the "reviews" and "awards". Or mark their "Tests" Reviews" and "Awards" as advertorials. Just be honest and quit fooling themselves. The mags need the ads to cover the publishing costs. The mags need to sell cameras to...

I seem to remember in the 80s that most people bought AP for its guaranteed soft core pornography content. That brings back memories. Back then, where I was working we used to call the magazine "Amateur Pornography". Almost every week a feature about photographing scantily clad models. Fond memor...

Officers claim they don't need law to stop photographer taking pictures
And the Police wonder why they're held in low regard in some areas... :roll: It always seems to be the Met in these cases, and from what I read elsewhere they seem to be the most politicised force. The last government was intent on turning the Police into a means of controlling the populace rathe...

Officers claim they don't need law to stop photographer taking pictures
I think we commented on this at the time but the video and soundtracks are interesting. The lad is excellent. The legislators, who we vote in, don't look at every line in the law as drafted by the civil servants and the pressure groups, for example: ACPO. So when the police lobby for something ...

I had them on the phone as well. When he told me that my computer was sending them messages and that it came back to 'Microsoft' that I had a problem, I told him that he had the wrong number and that he came through to the local control room and that I would transfer him to someone in the IT departm...

I usually tell them I'm on my way out and ask them to call me back on my other line later. Then give them a number of somebody I do not like.:mrgreen: for example, those people that show up at your door offering you a religious magazine.....keep thier number... it come in handy later.

Oggy - this is what I love about being a Mac user [ applies to Linux folk as well :D ]. When they say our PC is having problems and we are Windows users we can sit back and laugh at them :D

I was contacted by a whistleblower. He was part of a commercial team employed to infest internet forums and comment threads on behalf of corporate clients, promoting their causes Why did this make me suspicious of Canon pulling out of photo shows claiming to have to focus on new marketing stuff?:twi...

Maybe we're all just figments of John R's imagination... I imagine he wished we were. John you are two levels down and we're going down another level. 5 minutes at level 2 are equivalent to 10 years at level three. Get your totem and you'll hear the music before we jump back up the levels. If yo...
