Great picture, but just skewed enough to be slightly annoying, which distracts from the content, in my eyes.
But perhaps thats the intention in order to give the place an "edgy" atmosphere....

Nope, most important of all, is have a camera with you!

O.K. I'll stick my oar in then.
Upgrade the 18-55 kit lens with either the MkII or the WR if you're out on the hills a lot, get the 55-300 ( which is excellent!) and a 100mm Macro. PC world had some cheap and the Samsung version ( same lens) can still be had for under £350 if you can find one. Sell your other lenses and decide what to buy next!

Taken today with the M40 which is now sold my last photo with it

Don't worry Jack , it's going to a good home. I'm just blowing the cobwebs off my MX as we speak. Batteries are still good! Now where did I put that B&W film? Hope it doesn't mind the cold and the rain.......

Do they do bigger ones for telephotos?

Metz 36 would get my vote but it takes 4 AA's and isn't all that compact.

"Weather Permitting"... Amin, we can tell you aren't using your k20 anymore!
Unlocker, I was there at SRS at the same time as you and Amin. You handed me the K7 with a 60-250 on it and the focusing was INSTANT! I was quite taken aback not only with the speed but with the complete silence. It's a shame they "broke" it on the production models!
Personally I have no use for a FF camera. For a start I'd have to buy far more expensive telephotos to get the same reach. I would like to see much better low light/high ISO noise performance though. Some of the pictures I've seen come of a FF CCD sensor in the dark are amazing. The new cough, Canon, cough, 7D looks equally good with a CMOS chip, if the web reviews are true. When Pentax get there I'll be a very happy bunny indeed.
