Gwyn,

I have looked up the sizes and weights but I am interested in how you found the K-r at Photokina in terms of weight and size :

Have you used the lens recently :

There was an item on here that I saw recently about SDM lenses 'losing a charge'

Hyram, you impertinent so and so, you!

Your car analogy doesn't stand up. A car is a single, self contained object. A camera system consists of body, lenses and accessories. The lenses being the greater and more expensive part.
Well, whatever route you choose - just keep enjoying your photography

It does look like that, but in fact the shoreline changes direction and I was sitting on the edge of the water

A fair point Jon.

But to use a car analogy, if I had been driving saloon cars all my life made by manufacturer 'X' and I developed an urge to drive a convertible, but manufacturer 'X' did not make any, then I think that I would just change to manufacturer 'Y' rather than try to persuade manufacturer 'X' that their product line was wrong

What I want is a P70 sized camera with the sensor from the 645D and a 10mm - 600mm zoom lens with a constant 2.8 aperture and the quality of my FA 31 Ltd........and just one more thing, at full stretch the lens should only protrude 10mm from the body.

But I may asking for too much.

I have a Panasonic bridge camera at work, which is vastly inferior to the Pentax X70.

I have an Acer Ferrari One.

Great little machine and more than fast enough.

Amazing weather today - just like Summer - in fact better than the weather in August

So we just had to pop in here for lunch

If George is online at the moment, he no doubt remembers the location
