: The DA* 200mm is 1:2.8, the DA*300mm is 1:4 :

What you're wishing for isn't even on the Pentax lens roadmap.

But if you get the 300mm, you'll certainly not be disappointed.

Very cool, Don.

My wish list just went down the tubes !!!!!

I made a 'rash' promise to my daughter to take her to New York for Christmas, ( from Scotland ), if she passed her final exams.

Guess what,



I'm busy looking for cheap hotels in Manhattan.

Well Galoot...what can I say...we spend all our time telling them to "Go to school, get good grades....get smart"
next thing you know, they're outsmarting you....
personally, there are days when I wish I had never even taught mine to speak.
New York might be nice!

When I explain to my wife that I have bought ANOTHER camera, I will probably be looking for alternative accommodation She really doesn't understand! But I suppose Christmas has come early this year, so I'll not wish for anything else, yet
A nice 50mm prime would be nice.....................ouch!

She wants to be a surgeon, Don !

She suggested I sell one of my kidneys on ebay to fund her education, and when she achieves surgeon status, she'll put a fresh kidney back in !!!

I said, "with idea's like that, you should be a bloody politician !!! "

You want to make sure you don't upset her

Unlike you guys wanting fancy bits and bobs for your cameras. I'd settle for a photography course (oh, and a split screen focuser ).
Getting there! Thanks to you guys

Look on the bright side! New York, K10D,wide angle lens, sounds OK to me!
Just make sure everything's insured.
Cheers, HG
