Nope, I've tried it and nothing happened. The lens is fine as it works on my Dad's K7, but no PZ on the K-m.
Too bad Nope, I've tried it and nothing happened. The lens is fine as it works on my Dad's K7, but no PZ on the K-m.

2) needs to be easy to open which is not the case of that one, if you flip it to the front, stills needs to open the zip to the bottom of the bag to open it... really not handy (i think)
Care to explain this a bit more... I don't think there are other possibilities with a backpack.2) needs to be easy to open which is not the case of that one, if you flip it to the front, stills needs to open the zip to the bottom of the bag to open it... really not handy (i think)
You always have to flip it to the front and open a zip right?

Am I the only one that thinks that the Pentax strategy of selling the low end lens without hood and distance makings is a poor one ?
Same here but well they are really cheap though, if you want a hood you just need to buy the DA version.Am I the only one that thinks that the Pentax strategy of selling the low end lens without hood and distance makings is a poor one ?
And to be honest, how many times don't you see someone using the camera with the lens hood still reverse mounted on it

If they want to make a universal camera OS then make it open source. I'd like to be able to enable Power Zoom on my K-m (it has the contacts, it can power SDM lenses, so why not PZ? The K7 can handle PZ perfectly).
The KM can operate the PZ on PZ lenses as far as I know.If they want to make a universal camera OS then make it open source. I'd like to be able to enable Power Zoom on my K-m (it has the contacts, it can power SDM lenses, so why not PZ? The K7 can handle PZ perfectly).

I wonder how long it will be before a version of Windows is available for digital cameras, update any camera to microsofts own software which will include drivers for all the popular models
We could even end up playing games on the LCD screens
Funny you say that, there are now TV's coming on the market with google Android on it.I wonder how long it will be before a version of Windows is available for digital cameras, update any camera to microsofts own software which will include drivers for all the popular models

So yeah maybe something like that or an specialise linux OS.

Indeed but I believe Canon does something like that though but ain't sure.Very unlikely. It's quite likely that the O/S used will be licensed specifically for a single product, or just product range.

And what do they have to lose releasing firmware that's 6 years old... that's like something from the stone-age in digital terms
They might even learn some tricks or find interesting ideas from people that coded their own firmware.

Having said that I (as the owner of a DA35 Limited) don't need that half stop of speed but I would miss the Quick Shift, the built in hood and the ability to keep focussing up close until the lens is almost touching the subject.
Don't forget the build quality Having said that I (as the owner of a DA35 Limited) don't need that half stop of speed but I would miss the Quick Shift, the built in hood and the ability to keep focussing up close until the lens is almost touching the subject.
Must say though that the DAL35 looks sharp wide open and I like the bokeh it produced in those photos.

what about the DA 18-135, this lens will come out next month so nobody know how it is or the price.
It doesn't have the reach as the superzooms but to be honest they aren't great at the long end so all in all you won't be missing a lot if the DA 18-135 preforms well that is.

Don, haven't hear you talked about the K-R isn't that one good enough?
Comment by Anvh posted on K5, was it worth the wait? at 26/09/2010 - 22:35
It's always handy to have some extra room.
Take a look at the Lowe Fastpack, Lowe Rover, the Kata 3n1 or the Kata 123.
edit: Forgot the Crumpler Messenger Boy Stripes Backpack.
