On the positive side...
anyone with an EOS can get a decent lens to go with it at last

Just been to the Trafford Centre and NO-ONE has Pentax in stock!
I can also vouch for SRS

My guess is that knock off gear is flogged down the pub.
Seriously though, in all fairness I very much doubt this is stolen gear, what idiot is going to display images and descriptions of a particular bit of damage to a stiolen item? and even place an image with the serial number showing

if you'd had it all in focus I think that would have been a very very saleable image, next time use superglue on the flowers then you can have more attempts

I felt that after the Super A series the camera drifted from the Pentax philosophy.
The MZ5 and MZ3 models firmly returned to the path.
My introduction to Pentax was with the MZ7 after many years with the OM system I wanted autofocus so chose Pentax, the MZ7 was a fantastic little bit of kit but my only gripe was its lack of DOF preview, so I bought a second hand MZ5n, my shiny new MZ7 spent most of its life as a back up while the 5n took a lot of hammer till it finally died a couple of years ago, I think I put more rolls of film through that little beauty than all my other cameras put together.

It is quite common to have orbs of ectoplasm in indoor pictures taken with point and shoots. Airborne particles of dust are being illuminated by the flash.

That's beautiful! i WONDER IF THEY CAN LAMINATE IT LIKE THAT (OOPS CAPS LOCK!) and leave it in place. I suspect the health & safety brigade will see to it that no such enjoyment can be had and it'll be replaced forthwith!
My wife has a card for a local trade warehouse, the rear of their customer service lift was one huge mirror from halfway up, it had been broken at some time in the distant past and was taped up with brown parcel tape, it was like that for over three years till it was eventally removed
Anyway.....I like this image too, I think karma has positioned the impact point just right.
But honestly, vandalism, what lengths some folk will go to for an image
