The 800mm will be very difficult to use. DOF is minuscule.Anvh wrote:

True, but that was not the one I saw in LCE. With a 67-PK adaptor it would be a (relatively) cheap way to get long Pentax glass... You should have looked a bit further.

Good light is required.

Thanks Lance, interesting times then...
Of course 'barriers to entry' in this particular case (assuming the next level up is indeed FF) will need to include the significant investment many others have in Pentax APSC lenses that are not compatible with FF.
They are if Pentax do what Nikon has with the D700 and D3 series, you just tell the camera to shoot APS C, it comes up in the FF viewfinder as an outline frame but you keep the FF bright viewfinder.Thanks Lance, interesting times then...

This allows Fx and Dx lenses to be used used on the same body.
That said, I also don't think Pentax will go FF. I was hoping that they would.
It will be very interesting to see what the pro replacement for the K7 might be? In the meantime we have the choice of other pro kit to use while we get a year older and watch everything else progress at a slightly quicker rate.
I love my Pentax kit, I just don't feel the same way about the direction of the company.

Another good set. Looks like all were having fun.
Last one is super. For me, it works very very well. The addition of flash and the lens flare make it complete.

Has no one heard of Pentax's first DSLR the EI2000 which has a tilt up screen. A full size (35mm size)camera with 2.25 mp. 3 times zoom. etc. Asimple tilt up which lets you get low and with the camera used upside down lets you get high. (NO DRUGS INVOLVED HA HA) CHEERS Vic.
