York Railway Museum-Mallard 75

Just got back from visiting the museum to see the Mallards. link A great presentation. Many hundreds of visitors there as you would expect. Never seen so many cameras inside one building at the same time.

A few snaps.

I counted a total of four Pentax users in the couple of hours I was inside the museum. This chap had four bodies, three film and a K20. I got chatting to him and it only turned out that he is visiting from Oz!




note the 400ASA reminder




He had no choice but to pose with so much kit.




I did inform him that I was going to make him famous by posting his pics on the UK Pentax User site. He seemed happy about that. A real gent and whats more, a real photographer with film skills to match.

Big Blue thing

The Q worked well for you. I wasn't there today but hope to get there sometime soon.

Fancy meeting another fellow from down under! Looks like there was quite a disparity in the size of your photograhic kits!!

Thanks John.

These were with the K5, my signature (Q + MTO-1100mm ).

Best regards

Ah, beg his pardon. Try again:

The K-5 worked well for you! Was the last one with the 10-17?

John K

Aye, the 10-17mm. I didn't bring the 16-50 over with me.

Best regards
