Matt thank you for your answer, it's not the way I want to go with this subject.
If it's simply for recording then everyone can do it, even google streets is a form of that but I won't call that art.

It's the same a voice recorder can be used to record someone telling a story or someone singing, then it would be art but you can also use it to record a note.
Now my question is why would someone sing to a voice recorder?

The first shot is impressive, most likely it's the wide angle that does it.

Lovely photos Andrew, I like the play with textures in the first one but it makes me wander why they all look so dead while the trees below are green?
The softness of your second photo is very nice.
I'm not so sure about the third one, the composition is great but there is something that I dislike.

A simple question for you Andrew, why did you take these photos?

I'm getting a headache thinking about it maybe someone else his view can help me.

Currently I'm drifting on the flow that we make art as a medium to express ourself but is that the only reason why we do it, is art something only aesthetic aware beings can make and can we live without it.
If someone should ask you why do you make photos, what would you answer? (consider you hereby asked :wink

Deep Thought would most likely have said 42... most probably that's the answer though... now where is my towel.

Robbie I meant that if you decide to play the game you need to know the rules before you play it, if someone lose without knowing the rules than I don't feel sorry for them, would you?

You can look up on ebay for what money similar products went, that should give you a good indication for what is reasonable.

Sometimes you also hear members picking up bargains from ebay, do you feel sorry for the person that sold those items?
The one who knows the market the best win the most, it's as simple as that and if you don't put your time in to investigating the market then that's your choice.
If I pay the jackpot for something then that's my own stupid mistake right?
This the same with all auctions.

ps. Good one Tim, you should know what you buy and sell, that's what I also meant (basicly)

what, like some sort of Pentax User Forum?

that's just crazy talk!
Well yes just like the Pentax User Forum indeed but far more elaborated and good articles that comes from the staff that write the articles for the magazine now.
Just read my previous comment I wrote on this page.

I too prefer the magazine as it is. For me it would be a sad day if we could only use the magazine 'on line'.

How could I manage if I wanted to read it in bed!!!!
That's what laptop computers are for
or E-readers and iPads.
I believe Amazon was thinking of offering the Kindle for free when you subscribe to an Amazon account.
It would not take long before you pay a fee to a newspaper to rent an E-reader device and that you can simply download the news paper daily. When you leave from work you quickly download an update and you get all the news that happened in the morning.

Just looked in into the matter more, I believe what you end up with with pure speed is 100 Mbps, that's still almost a raw file per second.
They said that with a good integrated system they can up it to 200 Mbps at close range, that's good enough for most users.
Sadly it would take a long time before we might see such WUSB system, it hardly catch on and might be outdated quite fast.

On a serious note this is why I think a price guide for older lenses might be a good idea. I've seen more than a few beginners picking up on an ebay auction for an item that could be had much more cheaply from a different seller. I know that the "other forum" does this but their prices are all in dollars and I'm not convinced the market is the same on both sides of the Atlantic - I get the impression that used gear prices are higher here.
There doesn't need to be guides, it's you who decide to bid on it and if you don't have the knowledge then that's simply your problem.

The market is indeed different around the globe, it comes down to what demand and suply like always.
That's why the 50mm lenses are so cheap they came standard with almost every camera you bought.
