Sally Mann, and she is American.
Personally I find Jill Greenberg's photos closer to child abuse.

The K-7 cashback was a Europe wide deal, organised by Pentax Europe and outsourced to an agency, which, I think, was overwhelmed.
The current offer is a UK one (plus a couple of other EU countries) but is not as big a thing as last time.
I would write to Pentax UK stating all the details about your previous application and ask for help.
Personally I would have got on to this a lot sooner - like shortly after the cashback offer ended to find out where my money was. A year on makes it harder to deal with it I suspect.
Please don't let your previous experience put you off buying the K-5 - which is a fantastic camera.

I go out in the rain and take photos.
I enjoy the woods in the rain - the lovely soft light is wonderful normally but lately the general dull greyness means the light has been so poor it has not inspired photography.

We don't celebrate Sinterklaas. The grandchildren do that with their Dutch Opa and Oma, and have Christmas with us. Best of both worlds for them .First Sinterklaas here thought only after that we will talk about chirstmas.

I've already bought 5 Christmas presents, and another one is on order. 3 more to get. The three most difficult ones - husband and two of the three sons.
My cards are made and waiting to be collected.
I am way too organised this year. Something has to go wrong...

A stunning collection David! I love the first one.
I too am finding I need to do less work in PSE then I did with the K20D. Another big plus for the K-5.
PS can you send some of those blues skies over on the next ferry please?

Good race, and a new World Champion. Always comes across as a really nice guy.
My 4 year old grandson was riveted for the entire race. Another F1 convert?

Simon, I suggest you buy the kit, and decide for yourself which is better for you. You can always sell one or other lens later.
I'm hanging on to my 17-70 for now, as I like the range it offers, but the 18-135 is also tempting. Just the price is a problem.

Sounds like a crown may also be needed. I keep putting off the crowns I need - the white fillings are holding just fine for now so I shall keep on saving for the crowns .
