The Macro lens mentioned 100 DA is fantastic, but costly..you get what you pay for...

That's that settled then.
Anyone know if we are getting an APS-C next or a K3.2.5? I try to buy at the end of a model when Chris at SRS bribes me irrisistably with an extra £150 trade in on a reduced price. That's 2018 then I guess or 2017.5b if they are quick perhaps
I have inside info that reveals it is to be called the #Lba X - Don't forget that Pentax came up with the name *ist D
They were only leaving themselves around 100% profit on current sales prices...
Bless there caring hearts....
Always get a good deal there...or maybe you should look around a little bit after you take a cautious look there.
I got my KS-2 80 GBP cheaper than they were selling for.

I can recommend this head. I have used mine for years. Not the lightest head you will ever come across. But because of that easily supports long lenses. The panning lever is really handy when doing landscapes.

I bought a Zenith SLR at a jumble sale for a pound and used that for a few years until the strap broke while I was climbing and the camera ended up 300ft lower down under the Rannoch wall...lucky there was no-one under it´s flight path as it was a heavy beastie...managed to retrieve it on our way down and get film developed OK.
Next up was an Olympus trip which I used for many years then a list of compact Digital cameras until buying my first DSLR in 2014 a K-50.
Now use a K3, KS-2 & MX-1, also have a wee Canon Ixus 155 for uber discreet occasions.

How many Pentax cameras or lenses are made in UK?
I´d imagine zero...
so what does it matter if a UK shop buys directly from supplier or via a shop in another country.
Is it just the old British snobbery creeping in?
