Any old lenses with black paint on the mounts don't work
on the K-5 you have to short out the contacts with a piece
of foil or scrape off the black paint. I had to do that
on a Chinon 28mm f/2.8 (No 'A' setting). It worked OK
on the K20D with the "Allow aperture" setting which I don't
think the K-5 has.

Stainless steel pans and scrambled egg do not mix (or, more correctly, they stick together like superglue).
I've ended up buying a cheap non-stick aluminium pan just for scrambled eggs, they don't stick to that!

It's no wonder that they used to use eggs to seal leaky radiators

of tracing paper/kitchen towel over it, it makes a great
permanent diffused gun with quite a big diffuser. Better than
commercially made ones.
Doug must be mad!

in frot of me right now. 17th Oct. 1998 with the headline:
===================
The highest standard
The world's best standard lens. That's the Contax 50mm f/1.4 Planar....
until the new Pentax 43mm f/1.9 marvel appeared on the scene, as
Stewart Bell reports.
===================
He always said the Pentax were in the Top TWO of lensmakers.....
never said who the other one was
