Have you got aluminium pans disease as well?
I'm sticking with the cast iron pans.

No body talking tonight?

It's my bed time, as I need the rest for my back...

More money than sense, if you ask me.

Why strap a big, heavy, expensive DSLR to a RC helicopter when you can get smaller lighter HD video cameras?

The idea's sound, it's just, I don't know, daft!

Welcome to the forum and Pentax family.

I look forward to seeing some of those Tennessee pictures.

Hmm, It was the Jessops repair centre that killed my Optio 550.

It went in with a squeaky lens, was returned only to do the same 6 weeks later.

Second time around they couldn't fix it, 'beyond economical repair' they said and didn't return it.

I got a service charge refund but had to buy a new camera...

... my K110d...

...I'm not letting them near ANY of my cameras now!

That reminds me of a scam a few years back...

... local lads were catching feral pigeons(flying rats?), killing, plucking and preparing them...

...then selling them to London resteraunts as wood pigeons...

I don't visit London, but the local press had a field day saying the lads were risking poisoning people.

The attitude here oop norf was 'so what?'

I asked another costumer support person why there was a shortage of Samsung,Olympus and Panasonic cameras in the display cases.

His reply was that they couldn't supply any cameras so Jessops didn't bother with them.

Funny really, have you looked at their website lately, he obviously hadn't!

Whilst in the afore mentioned establishment I over heard the following conversation,

Customer " What about shake reduction?"
expert " Oh the canon doesn't need that"
C "I thought that it was a good thing to have?"
e " Well... it can be. Canon do do lenses that compensate for shake."
C " I understand Pentax cameras have it as standard?"
e " Oh that! It doesn't work, it's just a gimmick.."
C " Well it seems fine on my K20, Goodbye."
e "?"

By the time I got outside he'd gone, I wanted to shake his hand for not being conned into a mega-expensive body/lens combo.
