Nice to be close enough to be able to do that, unfortunately it would be a long trip from here.

If you do that, then the comments won't make sense any more. So why not just post a second image, modified as per suggestions, and then we'll be able to see what the before and after effect was. That could be really useful.

I wonder what will happen at 10,000? How many digits have been programmed into the forum software? Or will 10,000 overnight turn the Wizard into a lowly Presdigitator, starting again at 1....

I like Wizard, but Mage sounds good as well....

We seem to be opening up a whole new area of discovery here.

Perhaps we're all thinking at last we can admit to it too! Perhaps...

Steady with the language please...

I would if I wanted it, after all it's a free world and the seller is entitled to put out an auction starting at any price he or she wishes. We can then decide whether or not we wish to buy...doesn't particularly bother me to be honest!

The forum is for members' Pentax images, so non-Pentax images when spotted or reported are removed and a PM sent to the poster. Obviously we don't have time to trawl through every image, so by and large we rely on the common sense of what is expected of a Pentax User site.

If there's something extraordinary that merits special attention of the Pentax community then probably a link in the General Chat section is the way to go, but "lifting" images from elsewhere is probably not the best idea.

Hope that helps!

There does seem to be a yellow/green colour cast on these, so maybe look at WB?

The K-r is on its way and adverts are beginning to appear in AP. I would phone SRS for an update as to when supplies are due.

If you can get a Pentax 18-250mm, now discontinued, that might well be the lens for you. The Tamron 18-250mm is the same lens in a different casing and probably with different coatings. Very nice lenses and increasingly rare new, but available sometimes second hand. I think people tend to hang on to them.

Failing that, the camera with 18-55mm and 55-300mm lenses will be a very well piced and excellent kit.

Imminently I would think.
