Raincoats? Hidden cameras? What are you suggesting?

Whats not serious? If you ran a company you would employ the best and not idiots no?
And anyone who uses top of the range Nikon gear has got to know a lot about what they are doing.
And his work with ow shutter speeds is out of this world.
On this basis I think his recomendation to buy the Pro 58mm lense is a sound one.

Peter let me answer your queztion
1 rhymes with press ups would not employ anybody who was not at the top of their game because they are such a respected established chain of shops
2 my mate has got his own nikon professional gear that i have seen on tv used by the presserazzi
3 he is really good at doing photos with a slow shutter speex

So after having my K5 fixed it came back not with 1.03 installed (the condition I gave it to them in) but 1.01. Now there is this release, I'm assuming that the latest Firmware release will always include all the previous ones too ? 99% sure they will but can someone confirm that other 1% ?
Cheers !

I won't be buying one, but then, I said the same about the K5.

55mm x 1.5 (Pentax DSLR crop factor) = 82.5mm = Close enough.
The DA* 55mm is also a fast & sharp lens, you may have to do some PP work to soften the images taken with it.

Steer clear, as the shop you refer to has more connection with mess ups than press ups.
If they have recommended something to you, it's probably only because they want rid of it, and saw you coming.
BTW: How does "pretty high up in the world of cameras" relate to "works in a camera shop"?
