It was the AF 200T I recommended Mike NOT the 200S you have purchased. The S doesn't have all the manual controls that the T has.
The T allows for 1/8th, 1/4, 1/2, and full discharge. The S as far as I can see doesn't give you these options.
But it may be ok, let me know how you get on with it.

Oh ffs, another useless flash.
I will put it with the AF260sa that I also bought by mistake

Well I did as Clarky told me and got a AF-200 on Ebay for a reasonable price and am waiting for my bracket to arrive.
I still havent sorted how I am going to connect the flash and K10D yet though.

Probably best to email SRS and ask there, just to be sure.
If you are thinking about the Park Cameras refurb 16-45mm kit then afaik refurbs are not included in the cashback.

and what I think is a misprint K20 @ 16-45 (refurb) & £549!!
Not sure about that, SRS had refurb K20D for £389 so if the 16-4mm is a refurb as well then it would be about right?

indeed, however buyer is in Spain, and I have heard nothing from them since winning the auction. Mentioned I only ship to UK!... such is life!
I think you had better check your email again, I am pretty sure you will find one from the buyer saying that he will sort out a cheque and UK delivery address once you have sent a invoice.

By the way, it is actually against ebay rules to ask for 6% when paying via Paypal and if they find out you can get banned.

Oh, btw .. how much for the converter before I go trawling through Ebay again.

Shame the 60-250mm isn't listed.
You read my mind

No DA*16-50mm either.

Yup, I have to say Pentax are terrible when it comes to keeping their web site up to date. Last time they did the cashback offer it was still on there a month after it finished.
I clicked the ad on SRS site to have a look at the cashback offer on the lenses and couldnt see a thing about it.

I'm glad that one got in Mike, because several of us gave you advice on the composition. so we can all take credit
I count this shot as a group effort from everyone that contributed to the final crop and had I been allowed to add the numerous people who gave advice to the end product I surely would have done so.

But then again, maybe not

Just did a search and found this topic. I joined the Pentax gallery and submitted a few shots (around 12) and had this one accepted.

I had actually decided that if this one didn't get in then I stood no chance as I count it as probably my best shot in the 6 months or so that I have been taking photos.
