the only pity with the TARMON the filters are inexpensive like the standard 52 mm type.

everyone have a GREAT WEEKEND,

Timothy, come on credit where credits due.... I think you'll find that the ED 12-60 SWD is not a bad tool either [/quote]Agreed about the glass as my friend down the street as that camera and wish I could attach it some way to my DL2 but then again we make some nice glass as well.

A bit of a joke as the Olympus as one good think the HOYA filter on it, so you are giving them some funds.

Thanks everyone for the historical background. Since I moved to the Pentax system in July 2006 with the Pentax *ist DL2 with the 18 - 55 and 50 - 200 and some day perhaps the macro lens and ring light

Hi

I was watching today my old tape of "What a Picture" by John Hedgecoe and he took most of the pictures of the series with a Pentax SLR along with optics like the shift / till etc and was wondering what ever happened to Pentax with this sort of publicity.

As well are the shift / till optics still available, I realize it was pre auto-focus days and what are these power zoom lens which are not power zoom on the digital bodies.

Thanks,

Curious as it's external tool would it work with other products like the *ist DL2 as I like to walk around with it.

Good luck

if arrives and works please share images with us all.

Living in Canada, in the late 1980's I went Jessops as I was a reader of "Practical Photography" and always saw their ads. I went to one in London can't remember where but the staff was pleasant and got a good deal on EXTENSION TUBES the only think which surprised me was the service charge they charged on claiming VAT back as it was almost the whole discount.

While the other merchants I dealt with on that trip where K-SHOES which i don't if still is over in ENGLAND charged me nothing but I had to mail in the form, but the best one was Harold's as offered me to pay in Canadian dollars thus saving the handling fee at my end and also their VAT back charge was nothing and they enclosed an SAE and thus where best thus if I still had my old great income I would always go to HAROLDS because of this.

Maybe but what if the USA photographers as 2 passports a AMERICAN and a ENGLISH one as s/he could walk into England without port of entry stamp etc.

the Metz 36 AF-digital and the Metz 15 MS-1 Digital Ring Flash.

I noticed them in the latest issue of Photonews -- Your Source for Canadian Photographers (Fall 2008.)

Thanks,
