You know it would be really very ironic if next Friday evening you became a lottery millionaire....

I hope Stan isn't put off either. he has asked me to close this thread and I share his disappointment that it has descended into chaos.

I am also disappointed that some posters, despite being fully aware that discussing moderation in public is off topic, have deliberately continued to do so, in effect perhaps this could be seen as goading us into further action.

So this is now being locked and let's get back to some photographic chat please.

The Q with its optical viewfinder and standard prime would be as close to the classic set up (Leica + 50mm) as you could get.

I see potential in that.

Sue was sat next to me then and she says she's happy for you to buy me a 645D.....

I think Sue would notice a 645D. I'll put a red limited edition one on my Chrsitamas list and she can ignore it from there....

I do have a few lenses, but some only for specific purposes. Most of the time it's the 18-135mm WR, for exactly the reason that walkeja alludes to.

Damian advertisies with a banner on ePHOTOzine, otherwise a Google search should bring up his Warrington studio details.

It would be pure indulgence for me I'm afraid. Just think how many lenses I could buy for the K-5 for that amount of money.

I suppose that the Photosniper is a very good example of being absolutely within your legal rights to use it on the streets or wherever, but realistically asking for Big Trouble as you get reported by panicked bystanders.

I suppose it would eventually be classed as Disturbing The Peace as repeatedly the police were alerted wherever you went.

Stick to using that one from a bird hide I think!

As Pentax grow, they need to hit the spot with their new DSLRs and at the moment seem to have it down to a fine art.

The multiple colours grabbed the attention, as did the quirky alternative designs such as the K-01 and Q, all still very functional, but also very noticed.

The K30 looks very appealing and the choice of metal blue as the colour for advertising seems inspired. It just looks really good, especially covered in water droplets.
