Am I missing something
It also get deleted when the product is in back order, so when the product is available again 3 days later you can add it again. There is no such policy, it depends on individual circumstances. That's not what you told me over PM... One of my posts was deleted because the product was unavailable ...

Am I missing something
I thought it sounded as though you had something on your mind Stefan. There's no general policy on that, it depends on circumstances. If something is unavailable there's little point it being flagged up. Sometimes they come back into stock, sometimes not, but it's not kept track of in that way.

Just to get back to the OP, was the thread deleted, or did I go through a time warp?

Am I missing something
It isn't quite as good as the K version at f3.5, but stop down to f8 or so and they're even. I generally just left it on f8 with focus set to infinity, pressed the button to stop down/meter, then took the photo. Thanks to the depth of field most subjects were in focus when you had a decent compositi...

Am I missing something
Just to get back to the OP, was the thread deleted, or did I go through a time warp? Every now and again I run through the Leads to Deals section and remove any where the original items is no longer available. This keeps the items linked to as current as possible. Sometimes this pruning will mean a...

Lens Creep Bank
Kiron were the first with clamps (zoomlock) and they also had two stops that let you restrict the focus between say 10-30M :shock:

easiest photo sharing site
Another option? I bought my Mum & Dad a digital photo frame, as they weren't computer 'adept', so all they have to do is switch it on and the pictures appear. What we do now when there is new pictures, is to swap the SD cards in the post. I put the new images on a card, and send it off, the...

Ricoh to buy Pentax
Well I think it is good news. Hoya bought Pentax for the medical and scientific sides, the photographic side was just an addition. Now we know Hoya wer'nt interested in the camera division. So it can only be good to sell it to someone who IS interested, and that is Ricoh. Now what do I want to se...

Ricoh to buy Pentax
Just a quick update on this: (Japanese equivalent of the FT): With a focus on leveraging Pentax's SLR technologies, Ricoh targets 100 billion yen in annual sales from digital cameras in three years, almost double their combined sales at present. It hopes to turn digital cameras into a key busines...

Ricoh to buy Pentax
When times are tough then companies concentrate on getting their core business back in shape, despite all the usual blah about synergy (no acquisition was ever announced without using the term synergy) and impressive expansion plans for a small division. And I still remain very sceptical about ho...

Ricoh to buy Pentax
Stroke of madness getting rid of the kx? The kr addressed all the criticisms the kx suffered from, chiefly lack of focus spots. Can't see how that's madness! Hoya did a good job getting Pentax products back into the limelight and making the company an interesting proposition for a company like Ri...

Stroke of madness getting rid of the kx? The kr addressed all the criticisms the kx suffered from, chiefly lack of focus spots. Can't see how that's madness! Because the Kx was selling like hot cakes. And the end result is a two camera line-up priced about £500 apart, which I don't think is great st...

Ricoh to buy Pentax
Wishing the best from this sale. I'm actually happy how the announcement went, much better than how Hoya announced their things. There was even talk back when Hoya purchased Pentax how unhappy one of the senior execs were with the purchase.

Ricoh set to purchase Penatx
They've made some good cameras over the years, I always did like the XR-7 but unfortunately never had the chance to own one. The RDC5000 was a very good compact digital in it's day. John Still got an XR-X John. Super manual focus camera in my view

So what are you going to do RE: Ricoh purchase of Pentax
Just out of interest. With the news of Ricoh buying Pentax will you still buy that new lens/body/accessory you were thinking of purchasing in the next couple of months or do you intend holding back until Oct 1st when hopefully there should be some concrete news on what is going to happen. Pers...

So what are you going to do RE: Ricoh purchase of Pentax
I have owned one ricoh camera. I had a kr wayy back when... it was a solid, nicely spec'd camera. I had owned it as an upgrade to my first k1000, and as a back up to my mz5. Ricoh also had some very impressive p&s cameras over the years, of which, a few were very advanced for thier time. never had t...

So what are you going to do RE: Ricoh purchase of Pentax
Why would anyome want to adjust any buying purely due to a company being taken over? I do not understand. Because some people (I'm not among them) think that the purchase by Ricoh will lead to the death of Pentax's K-mount DSLRs (either by no new DSLRs, or not being K-mount, or any other permutation...

So what are you going to do RE: Ricoh purchase of Pentax
if your name is Ricoh, and you just bought Pentax, and you're selling under the Pentax brand.... you put out a simple advisory and offer a low-cost mod program to fix the old Ricoh lenses. as far as I can remember... the easy fix involved taking a pair of needle nosed pliers, grasping the Ricoh lock...
