Until it is on the official update sites I wouldn't do it. Same as the update for the K-5 - it is out there but no-one knows what it does or why.

Better to wait until it is official imho.

I saw them Tim, for those who didn't there is a very handy tone scale at the bottom of this page to check your monitor is correctly calibrated.
Didn't get to see the eclipse cloudy here in S. Wales.
My monitors are correctly calibrated by that scale, but I could only see the pearls in Tim's enlarged version.

Last couple?? Are Pentax coming with a new version then?

It is a really good price for it.

Looking further Mifsud seem low on Pentax stock - are they maybe dropping Pentax, rather than a Mk2 lens coming out?

Any more thoughts on a date for this yet?

I'm happy with any of those dates, or even late March or early May if that suits better.

The sooner I know the cheaper my ferry ticket will be .

Interesting Robbie - did you choose the Kindle over other e-readers or was that what you were given?
If you chose it can you say why you like the Kindle more than an independent e-reader?
Still contemplating getting an e-reader but there are so many it is as much of a minefield as choosing a camera .

I only see 15 too - I assume the 16th vanishes into the pure black background?
I'm not too worried though. I too have my monitor set quite dark.

I paid full price for mine as a very early adopter. OK it went back due to the sensor problem but I happily paid the price for it to have it now rather than wait for some price drop which may or may not happen.

If you wait long enough the next model will be announced and you can wait for the price to drop on that one instead.

As my Avatar WTD says - My other camera is in the catalogue.

Now I seem them - the classic string of pearls.

I take it you are arranging to exchange it?

Back on topic did you use a filter for your photos?

Hello Andrew, welcome to the forum.
It sounds like you have plenty of experience and can maybe teach us a thing or two!

Impressive first photo too.

Whereabouts are you? It's always nice to now roughly where members live - maybe you could fill in your location in your profile. Country or even better county will do.
