Japan does not have VAT. It has a consumption tax which is only charged to the end user and is actually now 8% with a planned rise to 10% in 2105.

That's very forward looking

An unanswerable poll.

Convenience of digital or the satisfaction of seeing a Velvia tranny on lightbox.

And there's the small matter of click wwwhhhhhiiiiiirrrrrrr..on the Z-1s and M645

Why do Pentax lenses cost so much? Mindboggling!
surprised this comment has not been moderated out to be honest...

Even at £140 I thought it represented an excellent purchase for someone...(I already have one Hogboy)

Good luck with the sale

Mount damage on the lens could cost as little as around £50 from Johnson's - they fixed my 50..

as for body after quite a blunt impact on the mount any inspection will reveal a lot of other damage I fear...
My K-5 and D-FA 100 were blown over by a gust of wind on Saturday...sadly the D-FA took the brunt and is in several pieces. A quick inspection by a JPSS engineer informs me that a repair is not terribly expensive and less than what the excess combined with a premium hike on insurance will cost...
