There appears to be grade inflation at Pentax, so many DA* and Ltds now...
Indeed but what would you want to see then?

Some cheap primes might be nice, where are the cheap 50mm f/1.7 the 28mm and the 135 f/2.4
Maybe Pentax thinks that since most is covered by the zooms we don't want primes.

Wonderful, to many years more right and there should be a K7 on the next cake or maybe a 645D.

But really this a good forum with wonderful members and that can not be said enough times.
Although we did had some problems with some members a half year ago or so, now that they are gone the peace seems to be back

I once used TNT to send a package to another forum member, I said UK main land and what did they do... yep, they put a sticker on it with a bar-code for the UK colonies.
What could have been a 2 day deliveries became over a week I believe since it went through customs and all

Yep focal length stays the same but you alter the focus distance.

If it's auto focus then would the camera not just detect the lens without knowing whats going on in between, as happens with auto focus teleconverters?
Don't know about the TC but there is a "chip" in the lens with his data and that gets transferred through the "info-contact"

Focussing just goes through the AF sensor so no need for feedback from the lens about that, however it does give the camera some info about focusing but nothing exciting.

I believe that hardly any TC do give the right focal length automaticly only the Pentax ones does give it through correct so focal length + TC magnification.

No just give them the focal length since tubes won't change them.
I believe when you use a TC then you should change it though.

Yep 19%, seems about normal in the EU with the minimum on 15% but for example Sweden and Norway has 25%.
It seems much but we do get things back from that in form of health care and education which is I believe not the case in the USA but I ain't sure about that...

I most of the time click now on the photos here that way you see the full version not the version the forum as make into 800px.
At least that's how I do it if I want to have a closer look.
Also when I ask for advice I upload a bigger version so that it's easier for people to edit.
