This one was taken late last night with the 60-250 and quite a bit of cropping

Yes that's the problem Stefan, unfortunately I can't easily get my hands on the K-m because it's 40 odd miles (65Km) away where my daughter lives.
I have dropped Chris a PM about it but I guess he is pretty busy at the moment with the shop move and run up to Christmas etc.
I think your link to pentax.com is good enough, I'll order one from SRS tomorrow. Thanks for your help

Thanks Stefan, I thought that should be the case.
The idea was a small surprise present for my daughter at Christmas (providing she doesn't read this post ). I rarely see her K-m now so wouldn't have the opportunity to sneakily try my 0-ME53 on her K-m to check.
I'll go ahead and order one from Chris
Huw

Thanks Rob, yes that is useful I might consider one as a backup to my two Pentax batteries.

Rob, how does the capacity of the Inov8 replacement unit compare with the 1860mAh of the original?

Thanks, yes I was quite pleased with it. Hand held without the teleconverter so quite a vicious crop to be honest.
I tried the Tamron converter and yep a bit of a disappointment (see below)

Yes 17-70 is a nice range, my old Oly ED 12-60 SWD had a similar range, very useful at the long end. I do find that my 16-50 at can be a little short on the odd occasion.
I'm sure you will enjoy your Sigma 17-70, by all accounts a very nice lens

The 8:50 interview is quite interesting.

Good spot Ted, seems they cross referred to the BBC photographer incident with which started the thread and also that infamous arrest of a innocent photographer in Chatham high street.Another photographer, going about his lawful business who was stopped and who's data will now be held by the state for a year.

Sounds like the Police Constable's message isn't filtering down to the police and community support officers on the beat.
