Well he does have a point there - very few camera stores, anywhere stock Pentax, and a few will get stuff in to order but most just don't want to know about Pentax. Without a good retail base people will not hunt for Pentax when Nikon and the like are there for the buying in their local superstore. Unless Pentax/Hoya can improve the marketing of the product sales will not increase, and it could be a serious problem in the future.

In addition to Matts's comments on the punctuation you also have a small i where you should have a capital - "anything i can help".
As for getting attention, as Matt says everyone thinks they are a photographer nowadays. Maybe put a small ad in the local papers/freebies, giving your website address as well.
Try getting a stand at local fairs/Christmas Markets etc and show you work "in the flesh".

Looks more like Autumn in the park to me - winter I expect snow, or hoar frost or at the very least bare trees

There was a rumour before the K20D came out that IT would be an APS-H sensor too.
I think we all just have to wait and see. Gives us something to look forward too in spring maybe.
Or not if like me you have just got the K20D and can't afford another upgrade if upgrade it will be.

A good tripod cost money, serious money. My tripod/head set up cost nearly as much as a camera! It is as solid as a rock, even with the Bigma and K20D on it, in a wind.
Cheap tripods are a false investment. Always always buy the best you can afford, make sure it will hold more than you are ever likely to put on it, and make sure the head will hold the same weight or more.

I'd hate to drive a Smart in LA - I was terrified in my bog standard rental car in amongst all those monster trucks.
How does Camera Armor (not combat alloy armour but the thing sold as Camera Armor) work? Does it offer more protection do you think? It makes the camera as ugly as anything so one must assume it does some good or why put it on your camera?
