Yeah but who wants to be regarded as a "big cheese"
Perhaps extending the titles would be preferable?

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

I rode mostly Ducatis for twenty five years. I was 17 when I passed my bike test and 31 when I was blackmailed into doing a car test. Never had an accident I couldn't walk away from.
One day I went to cut some flowers for Mrs Oggy, tripped carrying the knife and stabbed myself through my hand. I'm not complaining too much as had the hand not been in the way, the knife would have been in my stomach. Result - the first finger on my left hand is now a sausage. Three fingers against a Duke clutch - er, no.
Back on topic, I am now a Pentax Master. If only...

Not sure I agree with this new nomenclature. As a hoary old veteran, I am surprised to see myself classed with veritable newbies like Womble.
No offence intended, Womble.

George has a point - for 4000+ posts perhaps Pentax Sensei would be in order?

No offence taken. "Pro Master" sounds a bit OTT for a bumbling amateur like myself.Not sure I agree with this new nomenclature. As a hoary old veteran, I am surprised to see myself classed with veritable newbies like Womble.
