If you are referring to the software CDS, you don't really need them. Just use a card reader to transfer images to your computer.

One thing you'll notice straight away is that these lenses don't focus anywhere near as close as we're used to. Even worse is the 135mm Dynarex, with a close focus of 13 feet.

However, they were good lenses, especially the Septon, so probably worth a go.

With regard to downloads I neither use the the camera or a reader, most Apple Macs these days have SD card readers built in. I assume that newer PC's are pretty well much the same?
Yes, it's just a built in card reader, no different to using an external one.

The K-5 has a standard output that's approximately A3 in size at 300ppi - for many sales/printing purposes no resizing would need to be done at all. It exceeds the 3000 pixels asked for.

No risk is ever zero, but the idea that a sealed and boxed lithium camera battery is too dangerous to send by mail is pretty absurd IMHO.

Larger lithium cells, or banks of them, are a different issue, as aircraft manufacturers have become very aware.

Yes I know, but as for the legal issues I guess there is copyright on the booklet. So technically there might be an issue. In practice I think you'll find PDFs are widely available and somewhere we have a link to them.

Not sure where it is now but it's somewhere in the forum as a sticky.

Sadly no Royal Mail shares, just trying to be helpful.
