Stefan, I have been looking at this competition for about 5 weeks now, and the same 4 pages of stories have remained unchanged, which seems a little strange.

Well yes, they did say that, but many of the stories seem pretty ordinary to me. Given the creativity shown in our galleries, I would have expected some rather more exciting stories!

Well have a go then, who knows you might win right.
If it's fake then what do you lose?

I have, but it has not been posted on the site. Bitter? Moi? What gave you that idea?

I've been watching it too and there is one very good story by some guy called Daniel Bridge. Given Pentax UK's track record in marketing I'm not surprised its never been updated. Without any disrespect to the people featured I would have thought that Pentax legends were people like Sam Haskins or David Bailey.

But nothing surprises me much in Pentax Land anymore. I was in my local 'Pro' dealer yesterday who didn't believe me that Pentax made MF cameras. Their entire stock of Pentax amounted to one K7.

You're quite Right Ken, quite silly that they didn't ask Sam Haskins or David Bailey.

Sam Haskins wrote a nice little article on his Blog when the K10D was introduced. link
Maybe they will let him play with the 645D... "maybe" let's say hopefully since Pentax needs some attention and good marketing, maybe let him do a calender like in the old days.

What idea?
That you didn't submit a story?

This make me thought that you questioned the realness of it and so assumed you didn't submit a story.

ps. Ken, David Bailey photos are stunning, he surly knows how to capture a moment.
