Has anyone been on a photography holiday or course like the ones you see advertised in the back of the photo mags?
If so which one did you go on and what did you think of it? Did you learn anything? Was it fun or a hard slog? Value for money?

No I'm not whingeing. I don't care that the price drops. That's life. But if you all want the price to drop fast then I had better buy one - though I'll get it here not there because it's already cheaper here .

Shall I buy one? The price always drops a day or two after I buy a camera

It would be better to see nice prices. Too expensive for me at the moment. When it hits sub £800 I'll consider it.
Peter think about buying it in a Euro land. It is cheaper. The French have it already, and it must be here soon. The cheapest I've seen it here is €1049.

Yes I was amazed it arrived today. Pentax Dan did a great job of sorting out our delivery problems

Following the article in the magazine about bridges, here's one I made earlier.

The Megler Bridge carries Hwy 101 (Pacific Coast Highway) from Washington over the mouth of the Columbia River into Oregon at Astoria.

Well as I said in my other topic in the mag there is a voucher which becomes valid on 13 July which could be a hint maybe?

It is the same as the Tamron version. Pentax have indeed discontinued their version of it. Sigma also now have one with the same range, with a choice of SR on the lens or on the camera for Pentax fit.

I see there is a money off voucher in the PU mag today for the K-7's grip when you buy it with the camera.
Valid from 13 July, so maybe that is when the K-7 will be available :
