To be honest i was looking to walk away from Pentax the last few weeks and moving away to a full frame system, i still may yet. The pricing of the k-3 needs to be competitive for me to buy it still. It has all the features i need except full frame. Believe it or not the reason for me staying with pentax is the -3ev focus system which i will have to pay through the nose to get in a full frame system.cabstar wrote:

As for the prize, well it should still be possible to invite Bill to the Open day at SRS and present him with one of the first K? cameras and possibly DA 12-28 lens.

I guess pentax found out the same time as we did. The bbc press team will only be interested in promoting their programmes not other commercial organisations.LittleSkink wrote:

the prize (£1000) seemed a bit stingey given they made over £1.3m from the calendar last year - or is it just me ?
If Ricoh marketing had been on the ball, they would have had a coordinated marketing campaign in place pushing the fact that the winning image was shot on a Pentax, especially since there is a prior relationship with the programme from earlier this year (binocular recycling initiative at Bird Fair in August)saw that too, nice one Bill

Hmm the focus button doesnt look so joysticky on that photo, im guessing its just a button to turn the 4 way buttons into focus select mode which is a little more intuitive.

I recently sent a sandisk 45mb/s card back to sandisk as the lock tab had fallen off, it cost me around £8 but they replaced my faulty card with a 90mb/s card so well worth sending back

This is actually a good idea, ricoh probably has more brand awareness than Pentax. For customers making a buying decision over Pentax could actually help sell more Pentax equipment by shieingbpentax is part of a major brand with the power to show brand integrity and more importantly brand reassurance.

The flu card controls the camera wirelessly including aperture, shutter, iso, focusing and focus point. Awesome!!!

I'm a K30 owner too. In your position I'd get another K30, just to maintain the same button layout etc. Heresy I know, but I prefer the K30 handling to the old K7/K5. And yes I did used to own one (K7).
