I have just listened to a CD!
Shame it costs so much to fix the amp, they had a great reputation going back.It has been a while since my hi-fi days,the last deck I had was a Logic Tempo. PerhapS a NAD pre and power would be a good match for such an iconic turntable.:D Regards Chris

Hello David, its nice to be back :). Missed the forum while away in Africa. Yup, these are amazing pics. Following his tweets while he was in space was amazing. Trying to catch up with the forum now, so how are things around? I notice a few new members who are quite active, that's nice :).

Bigger Bag Advice
Thanks for all the advice and suggestions. However in my part of the world, camera shops are a rarity (nothing much in the local Currys and PC World). Unfortunately trying out before buying isn't an option :( However I've gone back to the Slingshot, and have managed to pack the 2 Sigmas and K...

Adrian I have the versa pack. I bought it recently and have used it a few of times. Its comfortable and holds the k20 with 16 - 50 plus the 50- 135 with some space for a smaller lens. There are pleanty of pockets for cards etc. and the top compartment is not a bad size for a light jacket/san...

Bigger Bag Advice
Hello Bychan I have two bags now (I got rid of the one I made from a Karrimor back pack) - they are the Kata 465i and the Lowepro Dryzone Rover. In the Kata I can fit the K10 with a Sigma 70-300 (just) or Pentax M200 f4 attached facing downwards in the lower compartment - if I attach my Toki...

Damn. At the very least thanks for sharing the bad news. :-( No Canon as well right? But still. Oh Pentax. Samsung should have just bought you instead (along with Samyang).

Well the Fuji X100 is being hidden at the back on, and only one on display... PENTAX has 6 K-5 with DA* zoom lenses on them so I do not see it being so bad! I suppose they can show-case their pancakes and let people have a play with them, instead on letting them absorb heats from the lightbox ...

Do you seriously mean they dont have the 645d on show?

Pentax prices at Focus NEC show & the Pentax stand...
They certainly did have the 645D - one in the morning and a second appeared in the afternoon. What a beautifully crafted machine it is. The Jacobs stand had about 5 Pentax 645D's with 55mm lens for £9,999 - and they were "throwing in" an FA 55-110 lens (RRP £1500ish)! I was strong, and put my ...

I'm down on Wednesday and if the K-5 is there for £879 then one will be coming home with me. See if you can put your name down for a Demo model after the show. You may save another £100 or so.

Did anyone ask Pentax about the K-5s low light front focussing problem?

Pentax prices at Focus NEC show & the Pentax stand...
I rather liked the Pentax stand, there was room to breathe and the folks from Pentax UK were as friendly as ever. I got to play with everything I could want to play with (without having to fight my way through the marauding hordes like I did to get to the Fuji X100) and picked up a couple of freebie...

I agree with Hefty, and they had enough staff on hand to answer questions, and they did have the K5 limited in silver in a display cabinet with the 43mm Ltd. As an aside to this I was greeted by another Pentaxian who noticed my K5, so keep your eyes peeled for a possible new member of the Forum:D
