As mentioned under Mike's post of "now this is what" you can get a 500mm f/4.5 now from Sigma. How much longer glass do you need?

Best regards

For longer glass, do remember that a 300mm f/2.8 and 500mm f/4.5 are available in Pentax fit from Sigma.

The 120-300 f/2.8 (Pentax fit) will be the one to look for later this year.

It looks like May is the month John.

They were not anti Pentax while Herbert Keppler was on the staff. He was a huge Pentax/Minolta fan. I used to subscribe to the mag but since his passing I no longer bother to grace its pages.

The battery door is original. A rectangular sliding plate which releases after pressing a button. I think the black top is the addition and the camera was originally chrome?

I saw the lights on but the door remains unanswered comes to mind.

Criticism is a low form of wit, to which I add:

"what happens if you put your hand inside a psychics pants"?

.....you get a prediction.....

The "free" MEF I received when collecting the SMC A70-210.
The pentaprism is black. Its been doctered. Seems to work OK.
