Thanks for the comments and ID, I used my K10D, Tamron Adaptall 2 90mm f2.8 macro and old Pentax AF280T flash gun. Must say I prefer that flash over my Metz 58 any day.
Would be fun trying though ...

You know something, I looked at these pics and wondered if they would be any better with a K-7 .. and I'm not sure they would.Come on Mike, don't bore us with excellent macro images . . . unless it's taken on a pre-production K-7

Yes we want of course a video section when the K-7 is here, it's Pentax users forum right and not a photo-forum

I ordered a swab and liquid cleaner Sunday, hoping it will be here soon to sort my sensor out. I have a nasty mark on there that I have to clone out every time but I have a nasty feeling its a scratch.

Too bad to hear that, you do wonders with the k10D so let's hope it's just some dirt.
Thanks Stefan.
