Thanks for the responses guys.

K10D I will be mainly capturing buildings, through my urban exploration, but I do like the odd candid shot too.

I toyed with the 35mm Pentax, but now thinking a 16-45 or even 10-20mm. I knew it was a conundrum..lol
The 35mm 2.4 AL would be my recommendation. Small, a useful focal length, compact, nice and sharp and cheap enough too!

I usually start my day with some rechargeable AAs in the adapter in the camera and I carried around the battery that came with the camera as a spare to save space
This is what I do. I use the adaptor with some Eneloops and they seem to last ages - I like the idea of being able use AA's.

*a good photographer will take good photos with any camera.
* on the whole a better (bigger sensor, more MP, etc etc) camera will take technicaly better images than an inferior one.
*surely any Pentax FF would have a facility to use a lens designed for a cropped sensor as a cropped image, this would let the photographer who moves up from apsc to use the camera with their current lenses until more FF lenses could be added to their collection.
*Pentax would make themselves a a limited niche manufacturer if they never bring out a FF option.

Thats the trouble with Argos - you spot a bargain on their site but there's never any in stock!

Thats the thing about Windows 8 / 8.1 - you can use it as a touch screen if you have a touch screen monitor or use it like a mouse based laptop or PC (like I do) - it's excellent for both.

I've heard so many people complain about Windows 8 / 8.1 but I think it's excellent - very stable and starts and shuts down quickly, I find it easy to use too and certainly recommend it. Not sure if Elements 11 runs on it as I don't have it but Photoshop CS2 works fine and that's ancient compared to Elements 11. In my opinion the best Windows yet by miles.
