If you need to ask, you can't afford it.

Although it would be nice to know, I've got 50 quid or so knocking about...

Plenty of offers coming including a demo day in the middle of March
I can't make the 16th or the 22nd, so if you could work round those...

Will you have the new lenses to play with too?

Thanks Dan And mine is boxed with the Pentax pouch
That'll do nicely for my K20D fund

Another (more like yours) just sold.

The price of them is definitely bouyant.

Mine's the same as the one sold. Still, that would do me.

Well, if we are to sell them, lets make sure we don't put them up at the same time.

He did to me He said the shutter was so quiet he thought there was something wrong

Looks I'll be offloading some Pentax gear to pay for the K20D...

Hmmm, finding the urge to buy getting stronger and stronger myself. Now what can I sell...

MZ-5N anyone? SMC FAJ 18-35?

How about a 1.7x AF converter? The way they've been selling lately, I reckon that should about cover it. Offers anybody?

...just read this through, sounds like he's died!
Death/Canon, same difference surely?

I just hope Pete doesn't regret his decision. His main gripe with the K10D as far as weddings were concerned was the noise, which he considered excessive. However, Benjikan never elaborated on his statement "This is a camera that is almost too quiet, if there is such a thing", and with extended dynamic range, I fear (for Pete's sake) the K20D may be perfect for weddings.

That SDM converter - is not announced as a teleconverter with a crop factor. Any ideas why?

I actually thought until I read this thread that the converter was to give SDM to common AF lenses. I might be completely wrong on this.....
I would assume that this (these?) will be normal teleconverters with 1.4x and/or 2x multipliers, with the necessary power contacts to supply the SDM motors in the lenses.

I suppose they could produce the equivalent of the 1.7x AF convertor, if future bodies don't have an in-body AF motor? But the first option is the one I would go for.
