Just a newbie question. I see the term LBA used here and there and have little idea what it means. Could someone give tell me what it refers to please? My guess it might be something like Lens Buying Again but I could be way off.

Cheers

Lens Buying Addiction so you were nearly right! And watch out - it is very contagious!

Thanks Gwyn but too late for the warning I think!

Don't worry, there's a cure. Once you have bought all the lenses there are, there is nothing left to tempt you.

Unless, of course, you switch to another system.

Oh my, that could be a problem, at least I could count the number of lenses on the Pentax Roadmap but if that is a possible scenario then the continuing purchase of photographic apparatus could be without end.

By that I presume you mean there's nothing to tempt you on the other systems then?

I'm joking of course. I do in fact have most of the existing Pentax lenses that I would like to own (which is not a huge number - I also own some which I don't really need/want/use), but many of the 2007 lenses look very tempting.

Maybe we need to form LBA Anonymous? At the first meeting "My name is George and I haven't bought a lens in a month..."

It might be a quiet meeting around March 2007.

pehaps what is required is a "Twelve stop Program" for lens addictions....
Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.
