Just heads-up, Jessops store in Glasgow has DA 12-24 for £299, better hurry. They'll do shipping as well.
I would go for it myself but as my wife is expecting a baby in few weeks time, there is no way I can afford it

I paid quite a bit more for mine from SRS but then I get the 2 year warranty (and the occasional baseball cap).

It is a lovely lens. Second in my affections to the 50-135mm.

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

I spoke to SRS nice and got my baseball cap, the one I wore to the NEC
I bet you haven't got a Horseman Baseball cap

I phoned and got the other one which cost me £299 plus postage so I just phoned to complain and he said I could also have it for that price.

Not sure why they said there were non left yesterday though.

You told porky's Mike
Was that to put us all off the scent?
The very nice man at the shop said He could not understand why all the interest in the Pentax kit today,
He also told me they have just had in a load of K20d's
read in that what you will.
They still have plenty of Tamron 70-300 lenses at very reduced prices.
I did buy myself a little gem though not the 12-24.
VERY CHEAP.
I may let you know when I get it, But I may not

I wish I was that devious, it would have come in handy at some time I am sure

Did he mention if they are in the sale and what price?

Oh go on, I won't be able to sleep tonight thinking about it

To be honest I only phoned because I didn't trust the wife to get the details right so I was surprised when he said they had one .. still not sure why I bought it though as 16mm is more than wide enough for me.

You will have to wait for my comments on what I bought,Idid only because I sold my Sigma 400mm to Tel
and just sold the FA 1.4 as well +I sold a Panasonic FZ28 on ebay.
The Pentax K20,s are £499 with 18-55mk11 lens.
Not to much discount at moment, but maybe they will do more in a day or two maybe another 20% like on the other stuff.

Umm, if I remember rightly you sold those to buy the 150-500mm Sigma.
Don't think the wife will fall for that twice
