I have just noticed that SRS have dropped the price for the body only, but not the kits.

Jon
I am sorry about that.
It is good for me as it supports my prejudice, all I have to do is wait for the price to fall to the correct level.

I have not made the move to the K20 as I thought that the step was too subtle for me to appreciate but K10 to K7 looks good.

This preproduction K7 test looks good, almost enthusiastic.

Thread diversion now that this tread lost its legs, advice required again from Matmatic if you would be so kind.

As lens prices are set to rise I have spotted a 100m macro for a good price and just wondered if you think it would be a good idea get it while prices are low.

I don’t go in for bugs but do a lot of plant and landscape pictures, I currently have 17-70, 55-300 & 50-1.4. I can fill the frame with most of my shots but I do have to get close would you expect that I would get a visible benefit from 100m macro?

It is just timing is not good as I have just started on a project on my other hobby i.e. a new engine build for my toy.

Thanks for your help

Jim

Hi Edmond
I got it from this chap
e-mail = [email protected] he does sell on eBay
he also did top quality k-mount lens cap in pack of 5, his 5 = 1 genuine Pentax in price.
I have no connection with this seller, but he was selling at a good price and delivery was quick.

It is if you constantly remove it, but I have purchased an internal fit lens pinch cap and have the hood permanently fitted and just protect lens with the cap fitted to the hood when I put the lens in my bag.
