That's right Hefty, I have a cheap Chinese adaptor that refuses to focus to infinity, the lip stops it!

Get a proper Pentax one and you'll have no problems.

In Bradford the main supplier for Pentax has become Bradford Camera Exchange.

Odd, as they were mainly selling Samsung kit, but a dealer in this area can only be good for our chosen brand.

BCE also seem to be cutting back on their Canon stock...

This when Jessops are saying they can't get hold of Pentax goods!

Zenith lenses are great, not as good as Takumars, but hey, they were a Russian copy of the Zeiss models.

I have several and have used them on my digital bodies with good results.

Play and enjoy

My 12Xp is sat in a bag, it will come out again sometime.

..and people still buy them because spotty youths say they're the best!

Canikony users just don't know what they're missing, still, their loss

I notice that the Jessops web site now has a Connon Shop tab.

I thought that they were supposed to be 'independent' of any one supplier. Is this to keep in Big C's good books so the(no doubt massive)debts aren't called in?

As for Sony buying the display case space, when the stores have plenty of space,as our remaining store in Bradford does, couldn't another case be installed for the 'less significant' brands to sit in?

That's good to hear, any 'youngster' who knows about film is welcome. I hope he's still there and his manager appreciates him.

I've a couple attached to various bodies, they seem to migrate from film to digital bodies at will and still produce jaw dropping images on either.

Still can't figure out why I need 2or 3 of them, I just do!

£15?

Is that all?

I've tried to get one of those lenses to use on my P30/t bodies and given up, £30 and up was way too much.

I've settled for a Vivitar 28-200 unit that won't fit a digital body, the flange on the bottom stopped me trying.

As for beer or lens? John's right.
