Bahrain is an odd market. There are several "camera clubs" here with a good mix of people and equipment.
I know from past experience, the dealer will bring to order, kit that would not normally be a shelf item.
They presently have a good stock of K7's, Kx's and K20D's. I may try to convince him that as he will not sell any more 20D's, and should sell me one cheap!

Well, there we have it.
The official Pentax dealer for Bahrain has said today that they have no intention of importing the 645D into Bahrain as there is no demand for it after their local market survey!
I do know that the dealer in Qatar is not importing them as there is no local MF following. At least in Bahrain there was a following for Hasselbladered kit.
How many in the UK will indulge?
Markets are indeed different.

Good luck with the move George. I am sure you will make it work.

I have to say yes.
Due to being here in Bahrain, I do not have access to my main storage drives in the UK.
I do normally shoot wide open and will try to see if the wife can operate the drives so that I can access.

Hi Tom. I have the 150-500 but I believe the Bigma is similar in this respect that they are not very sharp wide open at 500mm. I try to use mine at F9 or smaller, and get reasonable results even hand held.
