There are plenty of good dupe finders available, some even
pick out very similar or smaller copies.

This is just one that I used a few years ago...

Excellent capture. You could try a small extension tube to get closer. I used to use a 9.5mm Ricoh one (no contacts) with a Pentax-A 300mm.

Considering that the monthly payment is to keep you provided with NEW UPDATED versions of the software, it's very nasty of Adobe to not let you retain a FULL working version of your last update when you decide that you no longer need to update. You could have paid over the years say £500 and all you have to show for it is a crippled version .... No Thanks!

So will the result of this survey show that about 70% of us
haven't got a camera?

I've seen a lens for sale. Pentax-A SMC 50mm f1.7. Good or bad buy at £60 ?
£60 is a bit over the top. £40 or less would be about right. The M50/f1.7 is a nicer lens, it hasn't got that horrible plastic aperture ring of the A series. But you can't control the aperture from the camera.
That list is useless It contains 0 from the UK and includes
any ebay sale containing "Pentax 50mm F/1.7" which covers the 'M'
series and Chinons, Ricohs, Yashicas, Porst etc. Very high prices in Germany?

Hope this link works...... Ebay_Completed_BIN_Sales

There seems to be a heavy demand for this lens. Some of the red
no sales are withdrawals. A lot have £5 - £7 extra postage.
Some of the cheaper ones have faults or no caps.

Fantastic blend of colours and +1 for being a red cyril.

Excellent lens and £60 is about the price. Mint ones go for even more.

I've got a few of these on some of my film bodies and could let you have one for about £40 posted inc. original caps. I'll send you a PM.

I'd always go for building one.

Make sure you get an Ivy Bridge CPU it supports PCIe 3.0 amongst
other things

For HD Video you need a decent spec. graphics card that will
work with MadVR LINK
