I have never sold anything (except my Spotmatic back around 1976)

As a result I still have everything: A black MX, a silver MX, an auto winder, my original M series lenses, a Zorki 4 rangefinder, a Rokkor enlarging lens, a couple of Flashes, filters and cables. None of which have seen the light of day for the past 35 years or so.

My K5, K3ii, numerous lenses (including double of some), a couple more flashes and filters are my second hoard.

I have thought about selling some on occasions. But I quickly regain my senses

Back in the olden days with my MX's my three main M series lenses were M20mm F4, M50mm F1.4 and M100mm F2.8. I've still got both black and silver cameras and the lenses but they haven't seen the light of day for some time.

With the K5 and K3II it's my DA12-24 F4, DA*16-50 F2.8 and Sigma 70-200 1:2.8 APO DG HSM

I'm interested in two straps if they are available

I've only just seen this. I've been abroad on holiday and haven't logged in until now.

I've got a Pentax 16-45, a Pentax 16-50 F2.8 and a Sigma 17-50 f2.8 that I would consider parting with.

If anything goes wrong with your purchase let me know.

At present I use Lightroom 4. Can anyone confirm that if I upgrade to the latest version will my pre-sets, libraries, etc automatically be installed in the new version?

I appreciate there are other alternatives and it is an ongoing cost.

Cheers. The spots are on my K5 but don’t show up on the detection.

I've got a few stubborn spots on my sensor. Am I right in assuming that the positions on the sensor and the picture are a complete reversal. I.e Bottom left corner = top right.
