Some of the most expensive lenses are actually made to order. The Pentax 600mm f4 was an example of this.
I read once that the more esoteric items could be finished by just one specialist in the factory, meaning of course that when they went on holiday there was no-one else.

I think the first shot, but with the bottom crop just underneath the green leaf. To my eyes that looks much better.
Otherwise, excellent shot, nice and simple and plenty of impact.

If you refer to the instructiins at the top of the thread it explains how to post images.
Don't forget to make them no more than 800 pixels wide and a reasonable file size so they load quickly.
The image is actually held on your choice of hosting service - such as Photobucket - and you simply copy the image link from there and paste it into your message.
Hope that helps!

Yes, but unfortunately Classifieds was becoming very messy as it started to stray, so we're now back to basics. It can still be clearly seen here, so I hope it enjoys its new home! However, this sort of thing has been put in classifieds in the past

Some dealers have done that in the past. Not a good sign and maybe they are best avoided.I would happily offer to sell a new K-7 for £799.00 including delivery . . . when I haven't got any to sell.
This is probably the reason that dealers who price match insist that the prices they are matching are real offers to sell, from real stock.

Moved to general Chat - classifieds is for members' private sales and wants.

It's an interesting discussion, but it's hypothetical at the moment.
Firstly because the K7 isn't even available yet and secondly because we have no idea what the actual street price will be in three or four months time.
If we want a bargain then we can buy the K20D now, or wait till the K7 is due to be replaced and buy it at that point.
