Hello Manix.

Yes!... Your lens qualifies on all counts. And thanks for posting!
That Soligor sounds like an interesting lens. I didn't know Soligor had an interchangeable mount range. It may be easier to find an M42 mount, than a K mount.

Anyone used Samsung sd cards? I understand they're supposed to offer good performance/build/value.

They sell it slightly cheaper from their Amazon outlet http://www.amazon.co.uk/Transcend-16GB-SDHC-Class-Memory/dp/B002WE4HE2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1293025624&sr=8-1
Only £16.45 at 7DAy and less chance of it being counterfeit or "Bait and Switch"

I'd buy one but couldn't think of what I could use it for..... certainly wouldn't trust it in my camera

I have no explanation for it but both my Transcend X10 cards refuse to allow me to put the firmware update file on them. Innova8 cards work fine.
