You can try Hi-tech, not so high-quality as Lee but still good. link
density 3 is 10 stops so the same as Lee big stopper

SMC alone does not say so much...
We want to know if it's a K, M, F or FA

Digital or Medium format? I can see the 645D could arguably fit into either. Pentax challenges the boundaries!
Gonna pass on that one, wish it did video...
And I personally don't want a CMOS sensor

I think Pentax may end shifting more of these than they predicted.

Right it's now May 5th....any sign of the 645D yet...!!
Btw, you do know this posted in the film section of the forum while the 645D is a digital camera

I mostly chose the widest the lens can go so f/2.8 with most of my lenses, it's only sometimes I stop down if I need more DOF.

I have never own one of these lenses so can't comment really but by the looks of it the performance of both are very close, the M is a bit younger, smaller and lighter then the K.

i have another question regarding this camera
i am confused (easily done) regarding the autofocuss points or lack of.
Cant you just set it to centre focus and take it that this is the area it is then focussing in.Just read a review and he said it was a bad move not to put auto focuss points on as you cant tell where the focuss is so he was getting oof shots!!.But seeing how i only use centre focuss would this be a problem.
Sorry if i am rambling.

Also if you use selective focus points, you can see on the LCD screen which focus point is selected only when it's on automatic you've no AF indication but you can use ur eye to see what's in focus.

One argument for FF is that they might continue to struggle to sell apsc bodies to serious enthusiasts if they don't pull a FF body out of the bag or at least have plans in place. I don't want an FF body, 99% of users probably never will upgrade to FF, but not having the option there is a bit damaging when all the influential photo mags are obsessed with it. I don't think they should compete with the cheaper nikons and sonys, but come up with a real premium camera priced accordingly.
The biggest problem I see for 135-format is that Pentax isn't capable to compete with Nikon or Canon there because Sony is even struggling in the FF market.
The other problem is, we're already complaining about that Pentax doesn't have very long lenses so do you think that would improve if they also need to have a 135-format lens line up and a 645- format, Pentax can't in his current state not do that, it's as simple as that.
Let them first put the effort into the 645D because if that thing will flop, Pentax might be in problems
