Google found one for Pentax K listed here. Out of stock, but it does suggest that you might find one if you keep looking. Costs £304 though .

Just one question - why are these things specific to a brand or camera? The emitting hydrogen neither knows nor cares.

Just a thought... I wonder whether anyone (i.e. Pentax/Ricoh) will bring out an interchangable viewfinder - put on the pentaprism when you want the authentic SLR experience, swap for the EVF when you want live view through a viewfinder. Why have just one when you can experience both with the same camera?

Polishing out would remove the coating as well as change the shape of the lens. Don't do it !!!

Excellent photo, as usual .

Straight out of War Of The Worlds link .

All together now - 1, 2, 3 - - - Pentax is DOOOOMED!!!

PS: Not much point in advertising the Pentax product if people don't believe that a DSLR is worth having. Perhaps Ricoh has to ride it out until photography has its equivalent of the vinyl revival. Until then, small, niche and for the connoisseur might just do it.

Nicely done. Interesting subject and the background sets it off very well. I like it .

Fickle things, those auroras. You can get a flight to see one. Out into the Atlantic, cabin lights out, fly in circles for a bit, swap seats with other passengers in darkness (could be fun with the right person !) so you all get a chance of looking out of the window, back home again about 3 hours after you left. All for £250. But as the booking website says, "Please note as the Northern Lights is a natural phenomenon, we cannot guarantee a successful sighting.". And you definitely don't get to see Massachusetts.

Hmmm ... Wasn't it done by everybody in the days of B&W film? B&W negatives always had a strange fascination, an other-worldly view of things. Nice to see it again!

I'm no expert on smartphones but...
1. Have you put a microSD card in the phone and moved as much stuff as possible onto it to free up main memory?
2. Do you really, really need all those apps?
3. Since you like the camera, how about getting an XA2 Plus or Ultra which appear to have the same camera but with more memory?
4. Or get a cheap phone with lots of memory but mediocre camera, transfer your SIM card to the new phone, get rid of all but photographic apps from the old phone, load the new phone with other apps. Then use the old phone for taking photos and the new phone for other things. Just like carrying a phone and camera around except that the camera looks like a phone .
5. As 4, but get another XA2 (need to mark them somehow so you know which is which :shock.

As for me, I'm with John Riley. A camera for photography, a phone for phoning (and apps :wink.

PS: Why do you need to have Android 9 updated? I'm typing this on a Windows 8.1 PC (2 versions behind the latest Windows), a friend still has Windows 7 and it works fine for what they do.
