Please forgive me if I am wrong but is this post for real?

I mean a new forum user comes on straight away with a serious complaint that is damming to both Jessops and Pentax who are both reputable companies who in my opinion would not let such a thing happen (I am sure Jessops would have offered a replacement by now)

I may be barking up the wrong tree here and my sincere apologies to the OP if I am, but such a damming post and with a username of...bettyswollocks?

or maybe users of this forum are not very good at anagrams?

I dont know if this sort of reply is allowed on this forum........but I nearly had an orgasm thinking that I might actually get a K10D for xmas this year, plus I was expecting a £750-£900 price tag..... does this mean I have an spare couple of hundred quid?......thats about 12X24packs of Stella Artios......damn! I'll be to P!$$eD to play with my new toy!

Clever fellow that confucious......did he use Pentax?

Hmmm!

I can think of a way to make the thing 100% more usefull.....

Build in a wireless remote shutter release for that 300ft distance and it may be a worthwhile purchase.

Yeah! it seems like our cameras store more information than a tax return form.

John, what version of photshop is this? I have V.7 can I configure it to display the exif automatically when an image opens or do I still have to go through the menu.
Or did I misunderstand your reply?

So why didn't they market them as the KD range, KD100 KD110 KD10?
Also does this mean the next generation of Pentax DSLRs could be the M or A series or better still what about the LX10D, gold plated with snakeskin leather trim!

Yes, true, I'd forgotton about that, but Olympus got their own back as my OM30 was the Olympus' rip off of the ME F Pentax's first foray into the AF world. I never owned or used any of the OM AF lenses but having those three little lights blinking in the viewfinder was certainly a godsend in low light.

Well.....after a couple of years with a trusty Zenith Em I traded up to a Practica LTL, then on to an Olympus Om30 (superb little camera) which I had for YEARS!. I then wanted to go AF so I read all the reviews and "Practical Photography" magazine gave the Pentax MZ7 the thumbs up in an all out test with its rivals, the camera was/is fantastic (despite its lack of DOFP) the rest as they say is history, I purchased several pentax lenses, both manual and AF and the quality I got from these are what made me stay with the Pentax brand, as an aside to this I must also stress that had Olympus continued to use its OM fitting with an AF camera then I would probably have never changed brand.
Olympus, I'm sorry, you took far too long to get your act together! I now have far to much Pentax kit to ever consider changing brands!

I love my Pentax but OM will always have a place in my heart! (actually so will the Zenith "brick" I toted round my neck for years)

LBA......

I thought it was Lets Buy Asahi

Yes! Yorkshire is one of the most photogenic places in the world, but as a Yorkshireman I may well be biased.
Unfortunately I cant walk any great distance so much of the best stuff is beyond my reach, but I can still vouch for Liams advice and say get yourself to Malham. Had a drive round there myself about three weeks ago, got this on the way back to Settle........
