So heres a challenge for him, please give me some honest criticism on this arty farty shot I took of a lady who was completely naked apart from her shoes:

Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.

I have been lurking on these forum(s) (what is the plural) and this thread has really hit the spot. So my first post - be gentle with me -
I still do not know whether PE is a wind up or not and I think this is part of the fun.
I ordered a sensor cleaner from the retailer in question and the really professional young lady told me that the one I had ordered was out of stock but I could have the retractable brush and it would remove the dust from the sensor no problem!
fatspider Can you zoom out from the shoe?

I would suggest that looks remarkably like Mrs Spider's foot.
Has 'foot' ever been a competition title?

Not like you to take an interest in ladies feet Gareth, your eyes are usually roaming higher upI would suggest that looks remarkably like Mrs Spider's foot.
As for PentaxExpert you've not answered my question, which school did you go to in Armley?

Now look what you have done PE, another 1st post! Thank you for a very good laugh.
PE is not sending us up. He is merely questioning the wisdom of our beloved Pentax and their decision to make a toy lens.
As one who has already tried this crap I fear he might be right! -just the 58
and yes you can get a 52 as well. Maybe I got a bummer. Maybe I should send it back and ask for a 52mm instead......

G'day and welcome Coops and Maurice, I also fear that it's not a send-up (might be a bushel short of a cwt* methinks). Now look what you have done PE, another 1st post! Thank you for a very good laugh.

I have just read this thread from the start and what a laugh it is. The more PE posts the more obvious the wind up becomes, I was fooled by his first slight at macro shooters and took the bait, but as the posts progress it is becoming more obvious that this is simply a ruse, well done PE for catching so many of us.
All, watch for the switching between being unable to spell and having astonishingly bad grammar and then in the next post perfect in all respects.
Consistency Mr PE, consistency!
I wonder when the real identity of PE will emerge.
I also think it is a PU member spicing things up.
Keep up the good work PE it's a giggle and let's have some more examples of your superb work.

This picture reminds me of a very old pop song circa 1979 by The Monks

The last time I visited the camera store that rhymes with “press - ups”, the display shelves were that thick with dust, I just walked straight out again. Not been back since.
Top tip, if you are visiting one of these stores, take a duster with you.
Take care.

I'm moving this to General Chat as it's clearly not a troubleshooter query.
