I'm wandering, does Pentax have a mascot?
Searched the web but couldn't find one

Given the popularity of bug macros on here it ought to be some form of insect!

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

I rather have that gorgeous Swedish model (I forgot her name) with her Pentax 6x7.

Yeah I think she would do a lovely job.
She is used to the 67 so she should be able to work with the 645D and promote it don't you think?

When that photo was published in the UK paper The Independent "Pentax" was blanked out: see here.

And yes, Helena gets my vote over some bug. An ad campaign with her using a 645D would be excellent even if I still couldn't afford one.
