That's random, but it has been mooted in the past. The Pentax K mount was hoped to be such a mount, but getting all those manufacturers to agree did not happen.

The K mount was however widely used by a variety of different manufacturers.

Since this is a pointless thread does any one else watch Pointless?

that's why I posted in 'another pointeless thread', don't think there's an 'offtopic' thread here is there?

Other random thoughts:

boxing/martial arts photos look MUCH better in B&W for some reason.

why do so few people own Pentax dslrs? it's not as if they're worse that the leaders quality etc wise. Historical and marketing reasons I presume.

why can't all lenses have real macro built in. After all compact cameras can manage to inlcude 'macro' so it shouldn't be that hard or expensive to include...

Only recently did I think that it shouldn't be that expensive either for a lot of models to have more external fuction buttons. I upgraded from K-X to K-7 (love it even with that issue/limitation) and love the extra external controls/buttons (iso, focus area etc). So more models should have them. I don't buy the answer that a lot of models are for beginners who don't want those controls.

does Santa Claus get a present for Christmas? if so does he deliver it to himself

One thing about the pointless thread Pa - Photography talk is frowned upon.

Booze, food, Mornington Crescent, odd random thoughts yes, but photography? Any one would think this was a photography forum

I wonder where the yellow went when I brushed my teeth with pepsodent.

I think dinneenp has not quite grasped the concept of this thread and should be sent to the naughty step for using the C and P words

Yes and I always win because NONE of my answers are said by anyone else on the planet and therefore are pointless.
