Artistic licence perhaps, although I felt ChrisA was tending more towards gentle irony.

In another way this could be good news - demand for new Pentax kit is outstripping any predictions Pentax may have made.

They will have to make more and then will sell more.

An incredible success.

There is a classified ads section to the website, but sometimes odds and ends for sale get posted in the forum, which is fine unless it gets out of hand, because it's really a forum for discussion, not for selling things.

I'm not sure if I do want one yet. Sacriledge?

The 16-45mm is quite compact compared to the 16-50mm, so I think I'll wait and see it in the glass so to speak before I jump in.

And then there's that huge filter size...it's fortunate that I rarely use filters.

A true macro lens has a magnification ratio of 1:1 or, in the case of older manual focus lenses of 1:2, 1:1 being achieved by a dedicated extension ring.

1:4 is close focusing, but not macro.

That would make a fantastic poster and would, IMHO, sell and sell and sell.

Why not approach a publisher?

It's not prohibited....although on a Pentax User website it might be expected that we have Pentax Users.

Perhaps you could borrow a camera to take a few shots?

You could get some interesting effects...

I've started a new thread for this - to avoid confusion I'm now locking this one.
