For when they are further away?

We were "discussing" K5 pricing,

and principles

and pointless semantics

and supply and demand

and manipulation thereof

and affordabilty

and Harry Enfield (RIP)

and perceptions

and Apple

and Apple

and Apple

and contempt.

Which point do you want to go back to?

(Hint, the answer is NOT Apple.)

I use lenses up to 400mm, and the last thing I want to do is increase the weight any further. But I do understand that people who have spent the price of a new lens on a spare battery holder will wish to fantasise a bit to justify their purchase.

One card does for me, but I don't fire off 6,000 shots in the hope that one might be all right. I can understand why some other photographers might feel they need more than one card and one battery, but it would be easier and cheaper for them just to repair the holes in their pockets.

More expense. Fix those pockets!

Bet Henry Ford never imagined a world where there was a choice of blacks.

Don't rise to the bait, Tim.

Evangelists must expect to get crucified occasionally. It's all part of life's journey.

I was given an I-Phone recently. It's actually not bad at all, and, like all gifts, excellent value for money.

You missed the real reason. It looks nice.

For that it's worth a 40% premium.

To some people.

Where do you get 96% alcohol?

I can't find anything to drink over 40%.

But will that stop them from splashing out even more money on an Apple cam?

Probably not.

Great lens! Good luck with the sale.

That's interesting. I always thought the 16-50 focused quickly, and couldn't understand posts saying SDM was slow.

It seems there may be significant differences between the speed of different SDM lenses.
