General opinion seems to be that a slimline filter is not needed.
Can't find the official listing you mention, but plenty of other references to it elsewhere.

I have a normal CPL on my 17-70 with no problems, though that is of course only a 67mm filter - isn't the 16-50 a 77mm?.

SRS have a couple of D bodies in at the moment, and the grips to go with them too .

I had a Ds, which I loved. Tbh I wish I still had it and had not bothered with the K20D.
I liked it more than the K-m I bought my husband to replace the Ds, though the K-m is still a great camera.

I never had a D, but I know any people who have kept and still use theirs.

My K20D consistently underexposes. It is worse with some lenses than others. It took a while to get used to it, especially after the Ds which never had a problem. I really thought my photography had gone to pot. It's one of the (minor) reasons I was/am unhappy with the K20D.
Put a CPL on it and it is terrible. It takes a few test shots to get anything like a good exposure.
Thank heavens for RAW .

Roll on Photokina.

Eastridge, I too am left eyed which is why I said there would be more demand for a left eyed camera than a left handed one.

My husband is right eyed. One left handed son is left eyed, the other right eyed, the right handed one uses which ever eye is convenient .

I'm not sure there is any link between handedness and the stronger eye.

Like we are. Our post office closes next week, the building having been sold. All post offices in the Netherlands are closing.

I have no idea where I am supposed to go to send a parcel or a recorded delivery letter from next week. That they have forgotten to tell us.

Four passport photos don't cost much to have made here, so I just get them done at a local photography shop. It's one reason they are more relaxed with the photo rules for embassy issued passports than UK issued ones.

Luckily I still have 5 years to run on mine. Unlike my ESTA registration which runs out at the end of the year and then will cost me a stonking $14 to renew. Blinking Yanks

Sensible woman. Steaming and stripping wallpaper is horrible.

Has anyone any sunshine to spare?

The report in the OP. Bottom of age 4 of the PDF.

Well according to that Citigroup report (if it's genuine) they still plan on selling Pentax.
