Comment by ilovesaabs posted on When the FF Pentax comes out, what lenses can you use from day one? at 15/10/2012 - 12:33
I was looking at a Panasonic G3 a few weeks ago and when I put my eye to the EVF I put the camera straight down on the shop counter.....the day all cameras go EVF is the day I stop buying any cameras.

Similar in size inside to a mini trecker - enough room for K-5 plus a few lenses. More waterproof than the standard all-weather Lowepro bags - durable finish and in good condition - used once in tropical area.
Photos can be provided on request.
Price - £45 - postage extra - please query for rates....located in SW London

£205 including RMSD to Uk (overseas please query about rates)..
Excellent condition, bought from a fellow forum member. Reason for sale, I bought it as a lightweight option for the 60-250, but I always reach for the DA* (or the 300) if I want a telephoto so it doesn't get used.
Original caps and case, box.
Payment by bank transfer after which item will be dispatched (by insured mail).
Please reply via PM if interested.

Yes, the 35 DA/FA on a K-5 would give the same view as a DA/FA50 on a Z-1, just as a K-5 +DA*55 would give the same view as the wonderful FA*85 on the Z-1....
Likewise 35mm on APS-C gives the same view as 75/80 mm on a 645 film camera (6x4.5/6x6).....a Pentax or Mamiya 645 45/50/55mm would be a wideangle....

First, not all products fail equally. SDM lenses can and do fail. Screw focus lenses don't and apparently DC don't either.
We have our stains and SDM frailties....but just visit Canon or Nikon forums on DP review to get a picture of the reliability of those products.....
