And my mentor was also my dad, with his love of Russian rangefinder cameras. Still have his Zorki 4.

2010, was a good year in my life. Good knows where it went though, what happened to the Spring, Summer and Autumn ?
2011, photography plans, none really. Currently I have a rather large craving to buy a Spotmatic, and a couple of nice Takumar's, but I know this is just a nostalgic whim, and the kit would spend more time on the shelf than out in the field. So far I have managed to resist the temptations of eBay.
Anyway, A happy 2011 to you all !

I remember when I was trying to decide between the DA 55-300, or a cheaper offering from Sigma or Tamron. Then one of the forum members here (ChrisA) posted this shot of the Red Arrows link taken with the DA 55-300, and my mind was made up !
Its a very good lens and worth the bit extra. I use mine a lot.

Thanks for the tip. My son is 4 and I'm pretty sure he is going to love the book.

Back to the original thread for a bit. I'm rather looking forward to a 12-35 mm. I hope it goes into production and does not cost a fortune.
Happy Christmas one and all.

Not Pentax related as such, but none the less this might be an interesting youtube clip for the space nerds on the forum.
45 minutes or so of how NASA shoots footage during space shuttle launches.
Some very nice sequences.
