I would not want to trust a cheap ball head with 3kg of camera and lens. A 680 and 234RC2 is on my list of "things to do", also because the head would remain useable for other things, like light stands....I got to 1kg with my K10D and 50mm lens alone, I think adding the grip and 24-70 takes it to damned near 2kg and suddenly the necessary ballheads get big and heavy and expensive.

it should end with dessert, espresso and maybe a grappa, but certainly not with trout...

is this *really* still going? I'm impressed

A k100d will not accept SDM lenses, if I remember right. Considering they're all DA*, I doubt you have much to worry about.

If you're in the pit, f4 might be enough @ 1/60, ISO 125. Depending on the lighting.....

And isn't it John Mayer? If you can get to that gig, I would strongly recommend it.

Hmm. I think I need to talk to Chris, though my purchase won't be until beginning of December. Though that's also only 6 weeks away....

the US MSRP is $1500. If this follows through with the exchange rates...

£1k in the UK
€1.2k in Europe

This seems to bear out, even including VAT rates. I got quoted just over €1200 last week.

I think it will be a while before this one drops, and it probably won't be before christmas.

I think they show very effectively that the K5 is up there with the Kx and that ISO 1600 is usable in a way it simply isn't on a K10D.

thanks for these.
