Of course, I'd forgotten that Gwyn. He's probably very young too and therefore doesn't waste any time on sleep.

Good to know that PentaxUser land is in good hands, 24 hours a day. Our man in Holland/Nederland is there to answer all the tricky posts . . . so that we don't have to.

Stefan, you are a diamond geezer.

Keep it up Stefan! You'll soon be ahead of George's post count, and he's been around since Noah beached the ark

Better get selling then, but I'd draw the line at a kidney.

I think Mike_P should buy it, after all, he hasn't got one of those any more.

The f2.8 would be useful to me on occasions, but not enough to make me choose it over my DA* 60-250 f4, otherwise I might have been interested.

Why don't you PM Guiliano (ccxx)? He was really keen to buy it from Mike_P.

If you have any experience of Adobe (and I know you do) you'll already know the answer to that question.

will the Lightroom beta cease to function after it's free availability expires?
Probably. I think it will work until the end of June '10.

Lightroom is an excellent total workflow package. I rarely use Photoshop now since using Lightroom.

The one caveat is the reputation of DSG stores for... less than perfect customer service. I got a front focusing one of these from Park last year, phoned them up and it was no problem getting it returned and refunded. Try explaining to the staff typically employed by PC World what front focusing is!
There is evidence in the listing as to their capabilities.

This would be the Samsung 35mm D-Xenogon lens (clearly visible on the supplied image), yet the text describes it as a D-Xenogen
