But they're described as "Shoulder Bags For Sony Nikon Canon" so no good for a Pentax? Perhaps they consider Pentax's weatherproof enough already (or they've never heard of Pentax.)

Elements does quite a bit of what Photoshop does. At least all the basics and is less complex and much cheaper.. or ...

Why not try Photoshop CS2 for free?

But it never stops raining in Lancashire so presume you never go out (except to the pub.)

... assume if Adobe release a new version very shortly an update would be free?
Not usually unless just a bugfix update to v12. Reduced price is clue to version coming. No doubt a couple of new features and changes to justify new version number and entice fresh sale!

Algi, really sorry to hear about that...that's a lot of money to potentially lose so soon after parting with it...I take it you're not covered on your insurance?

In recognition of your long standing contribution here, I think Ricoh Marketing should offer you a payment of £100+ or so in exchange for using your 'cautionary tale'
in their WR advertising! If I controlled their purse strings i'd definitely try and help you out. Hope your salvage sale goes well anyway.

Sure it's his? The Camera is in Teddington and Algi is in Lancashire.

One issue is if the K-S1 is used in conjunction with any other Pentax is the lack of conformity if one has to think each time where the controls are.

It's that same rotating dial on the back that changes the options. The new Pentax may have a different use for it but the mode dial on top is quicker to access.

Well I hadn't heard of the old one before. It's not unlike an ME or similar and I would love to have a digital camera in that same (or very similar) bodyshell.
