It's good to see the price dropping. I'm more interested to see what's in the sidelines to replace it.

The Perth 2011 ISAF Sailing World Championships kick off at Fremantle along with the rest of the activities. Its now getting to 36'C and windy so it's perfect conditions for sailing.
Sat evening will be at the motorplex as the first top fuel dragsters are there and make great panning practice.

Lithium data here link
Laptops left connected to the mains once the battery is charged will shorten the life of the battery. It's better to use the laptop without the battery inserted (once it's fully charged) whilst on mains.

My K7, D7000 and D700 also have electronic levels. Guess which one is not accurate?
Most weddings I see here in WA are shot with Canon equipment. Results vary from good to outstanding. I've always thought that people make a good photo, not the camera.

You don't mention the option of buying a FF and using it alongside your K5.

You often see big lenses on 35mm sized sensors with built in motors amking them bulkier still.
In Greece this May I was very struck how cumbersome even a 300mm zoom was on my friends Canon 5D compared with my DA 55-300mm on my Pentax KR which of course gave me up to 450mm '35mm' equivalent,
The mentioned DA 300mm F4 would be equivalent to 630mm with a 1.4 tele adapter or 900mm with a 2x. That's a pretty powerful optical crop surely BUT still compact and manageable. I'd love one especially now we have such good high ISO capabilities to make up for the one or two stop loss!
Maybe worth mentioning Bill that you meant equivalent FOV. Nothing other than a TC behind a lens increases its magnification. Very misleading to non experienced members. The 300mm f/4 + a 2x is still only 600mm regardless of the body its on. The down side of course is the two stops of light that is lost. Not so bad on a 300mm f/2.8 however.You often see big lenses on 35mm sized sensors with built in motors amking them bulkier still.
