What a sad thing to want to write, even more so that you actually did write it.
Do you think David Cameron would have turned his back so easily though.
Sorry to see you go and I do empathise with some of the sentiment you have shared in your post.
PS: I've never even seen a Panda.

The one from Pixmania may not have had an English manual. They used to often supply French manuals with Pentax kit in the past.
Your SRS receipt will have the serial number of the body that they supplied.

The sellers name is 'waxyclean' and can't spell lens correctly. Also claims to use them for car valeting. I wouldn't put one of those in the same room as my lenses, let alone clean them with one.

Pimps, I don't think anybody wants to part with theirs. Dangermouse has given you good advice. Harrow Technical or Asahi Photo are your best bet I think.

Peter, I think you should look around photo sites on the WEB a bit more.
Maybe I was laying it on a bit thick but then, I think that there is a lot more to this image than just the image itself. This shot shows me that the desired result had some thought put into it.Peter, I think you should look around photo sites on the WEB a bit more.
I couldn't possibly replicate it, I haven't got any bricks laying around.

This is one of the best images I have ever seen. Brilliant.
If you don't win anything else for this, you have won my admiration.
Again, brilliant.

Curious.
I'm with John on this one, but I can also see Algi's point about using plain focus screens. If there are no lines, you can't use them to adjust the dioptre.
It should be possible then, using a lined screen, to get an in focus image in the VF, and the focus lines on the screen out of focus.

Now we all know that very little sells at MSRP prices, but it gives an indication of where it would have featured in their range at the time, which was about 10 years ago. I'd say it was near the top.
The earliest review I can find is dated August 2000 and the reviewer paid US$460.00
