Oh, yes, I know about it. I forgot about that one, it is included of course.

:: K10D pack ::
I'm selling my K10D. Bought at at SRS in July 2008, clocked 25352 clicks, comes with all original bits except for the body cover which isn't the soft plastic white, and the software manual, which I can't find. The rest is all there in the original, well kept box.
Condition wise, it is great, with only 3 small scratches in the bottom which are easy to miss. It could do with a general cleaning since I do get some spots on high apertures, I never bothered because I can easily sort it out in post.
Its had a GGS LCD cover since like day 2, so LCD is impecable, not even the cover is scratched actually. These GGS hard cover are well worth the extra money.

I'm selling it together with a TRAVOR battery grip, which is a copy of the original, minus the WR feature, and some of the build quality. It has never let me down, and otherwise possess the same functionality as the original.

Also included are 3 batteries (with covers), 1 original and two 3rd party. I bought them originally for the Edinburgh race I covered in 2009, ever since they worked flawlessly without any perceivable difference to the original.

Also included is an olive green Crumpler Pretty Boy 3000 shoulder bag. This can take the camera and the two lenses here plus accessories (although with grip its a tight squeeze).

Sorry for the photos, my dad's camera is old and not that great.


:: SMC DA 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 WR ::
Together with the K10D this makes a completely WR package.
The lens is in mint condition, with both original caps and lens hood. Comes with box and papers.

:: SMC DA-L 55-300mm F4.5-5.8 WR ::
This is the economical version of the DA 55-300mm.
This has a plastic mount and no quick-shift, but I have seen no difference in terms of image quality.
Because it comes as part of a kit, it doesn't have a box

I bought this tripod after having the Manfrotto 190 XPROB, this has the same excelent build quality and finish. It even seems more robust, but it isn't as flexible as the Manfrotto with its flexible column.

The tripod has 3 sections, with twist-lock, with rubber and spikes (costumizable) and also has padding on the top of the legs.
The legs can open and lock in 3 positions, lowering to 21 cm.
The cental column comes off and also has a hook for extra weight.

IMGP4276-2 by eduardodourado, on Flickr

The tripod has seen little use, and it shows. Hardly any signs, including the rubber and spikes.
It comes with a great padded carrying bag, with anti-sliping strap.

Sure there are lots of MF offerings, but AF?

Fixed F11, not very interesting, so not much excitement about having it available, so no, not much ppl will want to buy it.

Forget about really expensive primes that onlypros and a very phew amateurs can afford, what about having something like the big Sigmas, Canon's 100-400, or Tokina's 80-400mm. Prosumer longer teles.

I'm hopefull that Pentax had not done this because it has not arranged a deal with third party manufactureurs and is unwilling to go ahead with its own work until enough consumer base is there. Hopefully with the new cameras it will appear.
However even if this is so, there is already plenty of wides out there in the same range of price of these potential teles, no? And why so many. Are Pentaxians so skewed towards wide, I had no idea.

Shoot RAW, it will help you compensate any exposure and noise problems later.

Now Sold.

Judging from my avatar, mad seems right But Edu will do.

No George.

I feared that, like the other hugely photographed, constant presence in the cinema and tele, imensely talked about big city (NYC), London would not live up to expectations.

London and NYC are completely different.

Completely agree with mowog.
Please tell me you smoke pipe. One made of some exotic wood and ivory.
I'd love that. Seriously.
