Hood. It will provide flare resistance, improve the contrast as a result and will take the first knocks should the lens get bumped into anything.

It was in Leads to Deals, but once an offer is over those threads are removed. It's all explained in the Guidelines to the section. Only active offers are left on show.

My 35mm order arrived today also, very fast free delivery.

Don't knock the pouches. I sold one on its own for £35 on eBay IIRC.

I think we need to give things a chance Mike, it's early days yet, with a damaged supply chain and no doubt a wish to remove all the Hoya-marked products from the shelves.

It may well be a matter of priorities and not telling anyone anything until The Plan can be announced properly.

I've no doubt Pentax find the speculation everywhere quite frustrating at times and have learned to let it go. Like probably every manufacturer.

We're now under way, so we'd all better get moving with those entries!

The Pentax site is there for everyone to see what they have listed as current and the availablity generally is there to see on the suppliers' websites.

At the moment SRS and Park are listing various colour options for the K-r and also of course the K-5. Everything else seems to be just the reporting of assumptions and conjecture. It may be right or wrong but it doesn't appear to be "official" at this moment.

Be careful what you use to resize. There are different methods and sampling so for maximum quality use Photoshop and don't let anything else mess with the size of your images.

Guidelines are provided at the top of the Classified Ads section.

Straying off topic is discouraged, but sometimes is harmless and imparts useful information that is beneficial to the selling process.

There also seems to be a DOF or camera shake problem, as nothing is sharp in the second image.

If a tripod and the same aperture was used for both shots then I don't think focusing is the problem. I'm still going for faulty lens.
