Obviously this bit isn't working
var launch = new Date();
launch = new Date("March 28, 2013 12:00:00");
$('#countdown').countdown({until: launch});
Beer_Time = new Date("March 28, 2013 21:00:00");
$('#countdown').countdown({until: Beer_Time});

May I add that the Pentax-A 70-210mm F4 is a great lens. I have two of them and I thought it may help help to post a photograph.
photo you've posted is focused on the background
At least the background is sharp

Gitzo's are good but expensive.
Do you need a head under the gimbal? Wouldn't the tripod
be level enough especially with a bubble on it to level
it up.
Your talking serious money for a good head such as Arca
or Novoflex. Have a look for any tips on Youtube.

I picked up a couple of AF500ftz flashes recently on ebay for £50 ish each. Very adjustable and can be used as slaves too.
and doesn't seem to go the full 3 minutes that it should do. On the
camera, the shutter release wakes it up, but not in slave mode.
There is another position on the on/off switch which bypasses the
timeout and is better for slave mode, but you only have access
to the power settings. Powerful gun though at a very cheap price.

It's unlikely that they will bring out a new mount anyway
that would mean producing TWO lines of 135 format lenses
because the K-5II still has the traditional mount.
Strangely though some dealers (SRS and Carmarthen) are
selling off quite a lot of lenses cheaply on ebay
refurbs and ex-Jessop stuff?
