I think you'll find Algi that the GR is top because it's the flagship, the most expensive.

It eludes me why they would want to change a perfectly successful mount and why you would think they would want to?

to make it absolutely clear the Pentax K-mount lives on
It looks pretty clear to me. What makes you doubt it?

How about the 18-135mm?

Actually I'm rather partial to Marmite, in its proper place, on toast, or on cheese and toast.

Large tubs can be purchased from Costco.

Please get back on topic, there's a pointless thread available for Marmite and other silly stuff.

I think it's worth saying that a very weak solution means only one or two drops in a litre of water, otherwise you will end up with streaky marks. Better to get proper photographic wetting agent.

To start, given that most slides should have been in boxes and most negatives in sleeves, then a microfibre cloth used gently should be all you need.

Pick any magazine up and where do you see Pentax mentioned?
All over the place. I see a lot of magazines and Pentax coverage seems fine, much better than it's been for many years.

I wonder if the executives making this change would be totally bemused by the negativity expressed by some.

It seems to happen every time even the slightest change occurs.

There has been masses of development, new product introductions have accelerated and more plans are in the pipeline. How can a simple name change be seen as evidence of the End Of All Things?
