Had the Postman banging on my door this morning at 08:45, ruined my beauty sleep

Mind you, he did bring me a Pentax A 50mm f1:1.2 lens, so I can't be too mad at him

I don't think I could have gotten a lens in better condition even if I had picked a new one off the shelf.

Thanks William, hope things go well for you with the new system.

You were probably meaning, 'photographically".

I, however, had the chain-saw, jack-hammer and 3-phase 450 volt supply to hand.

Now that's what I call a test

Can you tell I'm a wee bit jealous ???

I know what you mean Don, in my teens it was motorcycles, beer and women.

Unfortunately, 40 years later, it is still motorcycles, beer and women.

The motorcycles are faster, I can't drink as much beer, and the women run away from me now ;-(

Any money I have left, I end up giving to the kids.

Thank you very much Don.

Not only do I like your photography style, but your 'photography related' inventions are terrific.

I have this vision of you in a white coat, sitting in a work-shop, deep in the Canadian winter snow, thinking up, and producing these prototype's and submitting patents for them.

You must be just a couple of dollars away from your first or second $1,000,000

Thanks Matt, can't seem to remember how well it did in the PentaxUser weekly competition, I'll need to look through the archive to find out my rating

Submitted an image from an old PentaxUser weekly competition here, it seemed to fit the theme.

It's the one with the ice cube on the cooker.

Managed to get "Pentax" in to the credits too.

Sh*t, knowing that Peter, 'Mannesty" has Pentax's ear, I cancelled my K5 order, I'm holding out for the,

K1DLXZ1ZS Digimatic

Will it take pictures and replace the wife though ?
