Was next to "Greytop" when I picked mine up at SRS. Love it. No regrets and would find it difficult to move back. K-7 is perfect size and handling for what I want. But the single biggest issue that would make it hard to go back to earlier bodies for me is low light focussing - it nails this quickly on occasions when my other cameras would simply have given up.

The sales assistent was also very complimentary of the camera.
I will be getting one (unless Pentax release a new model!) as soon as I can justify the spend with the other half!
Got me thinking, how many of us have or will be getting the camera?

The other way is to use an SD card adaptor/reader plugged into USB. I use the cards with a built in USB connection so I just plug the card straight into one of my USB ports (its a SanDisk Ultra 4GB card).

With this liquid I find my self wondering what it would look like lit from behind! White background instead of black, back lit instead of front. Even two flash, one back lighting and one side lighting on much less power.
I think I am getting away with myself here but what about adding somehing solid to the liquid, like glitter?

I will need to dig my spare out, it is some 20 years old but should be in good working order and has been well kept - you could have it for the cost of the postage. I will PM details of the attachment if you are interested.

Does anybody have any suggestions and experience with these?

I have taken shots using my DA*50-135 on the 5MZ, however they are still in the camera (note to self, must finish film!)
I don't earn a living with my camera, if I did, my answer would be very different.
