Welcome also to too HeyElwood. I assure you once you get your first hold of a Koala you may not go back for a second, after its peed all over you and scratched off a few layers of skin.

I just tried it with mine and no i couldn't use AF.
Even in Manual focus i couldn't get a focus confirmation But i was using it hand held,so maybe a tripod would help as it was moving around a bit as you would expect.

The newly announced Metz ringflash also looks very interesting as it's wireless, so you could still use a flashgun on top as well giving more creative options.
That looks interesting, and it also takes AAA batteries which will bring the weight down a bit. Any idea of price :The newly announced Metz ringflash also looks very interesting as it's wireless, so you could still use a flashgun on top as well giving more creative options.

Glad to hear you escaped relatively unscathed.
So did you fire the guy you hired to lug that beast about for you.

I am sure you will be able source it in the UK somewhere. Perhaps Hefty can help you out there
I have the older 2.0 magnification version, and it works fine.
And no problems with smearing the LCD screen unless your name is Pinochio

Can we all stay at your place Clarky?
No not Sydney,
Darwin is a much better bet!
From there you can get to Kakadu National Park,and Arnemland National Park.
NT Australia is the place to be, Australia in the raw, Magnificent Scenery, lively, wonderful people, and the added bonus is you get to eat Barramundi and the finest OZ steaks.
Pack your cameras, pack you Akubras, and go!
If you ever visit there you have to go into Kakadu national park, fantastic place
But do you think it would be possible for us to decide where to meet!................Ken
Martin.
Actually, I'm not.
But I do get irritated by people who take advantage of a situation (bad legislation in this case) to behave in an unreasonable manner. In my view it is quite unethical to try out equipment at a seller's expense and then return it for reasons that have nothing to do with the quality or suitability of the product.
That camera will probably now have to be returned to Pentax, inspected, re-packaged, and sold at a discount as "refurbished".
If everybody did this, prices would rise by probably 30%.
Sadly, some people are more aware of their rights than their responsibilities, and when such people announce their decision to part company with the forum, I can do no less than to express my gratitude to them.

I must have higher morals or something, but I could never do that
On the subject of meeting, I have met a couple of members. Both survived the experience.
