Same old photos they've been using for months, albeit with a little more perspective distortion.

Just 3D printed plastic 'concept' examples.

Its a C-mount cctv/video lens. No adapters afaik, not least because of the lens registration distance.

Thanks, will visit one day during the summer
In which case check out what's happening in the Park, as there are frequent concerts and other events that might be of interest.

I've never been to Hyde park, is it very big?
It is. Follow the link in my post for a map. Theres a statue of Peter Pan, the Serpentine and Gallery, the Albert Memorial, Marble Arch and the giant horses head statue next to it, Kensington Palace and Gardens, Princess Diana Memorial, etc.

It's a 1.5 mile walk from the Station to the Museum, mostly across Hyde Park which has a number of photo opportunities. Would take around 30 minutes.

For me there's no one camera (yet) that combines all the features I want, so the answer for now is multiple cameras, using the one most appropriate to the task.

Light and simple with huge zoom? Canon bridge.

Compact and high quality? Fuji X20

Sophisticated all weather workhorse with high IQ? Pentax K5II

Light and high IQ? Pentax K-S1 (with a set of DA Limiteds).

Travel? K-S1, Fuji or Canon, in that order.

Macro? K5II

Social gatherings? Fuji

I am looking for a 4/3 camera to play with and was winning an auction for a K01...
Why? K-01 is not a 4/3.

I don't have one, but they do have a strong fan-base.

Don't read reviews, just buy and try. Your opinion is the only important one.

If you really want a Sigma lens for your Pentax, then buy now!
