Keep watching the link - I have seen them in and out of stock a couple of times. You might get lucky.

That's a shame. You can't beat this, in my view:Unfortunately I'm not made of money [ are any of us ? ] and I'm intending to spend what to me is an obscene amount of money while away , so please don't suggest gold plated lenses or the like

One thought, are their any camera clubs near you?
While there is a wealth of knowledge and lots of helpful people here, it is hard to beat talking to someone knowledgeable face to face. You mentioned a wonky elbow but without seeing the problem first hand it is difficult to assess the problem.
I would say the best bet is to try out as many lenses as you can and see how you get on.

Sorry Mark - just had a dig around the suppliers I normally use (RS, Farnell etc) and no joy.
One thing in case you are unaware, flashes can give you a nasty electric shock.

Some electronic components do have a shelf life, especially old capacitors. One failing would produce the pop you describe.

Samsung version £479 Park Cameras.
Before I had the result with my DFA100, I had been looking at Samsung as an alternative. I found that most Samsung equivalents of "interesting" Pentax lenses (12-24, DFA100etc) seemed to be out of production. A lot of places advertised them, but none had any stock or knew when they would. Personally I will never deal with Park again. I wonder if they actually have stock.Samsung version £479 Park Cameras.

I quadruple checked (and I use studio flashes), and there is no such option. It works exactly like the K10D and K20D. If ever you happen to find it, let me know. I could use it.Quote:
Sorry to burst your bubble, John, but is no such option for studio flash on the K-7.
You must have missed it, because we were using it. As I said though, I can't tell you where because I don't have the K7 here. Next time I handle one I'll find out where the options are and report back.Sorry to burst your bubble, John, but is no such option for studio flash on the K-7.

It's OK, I was just tweaking Stefan's tail as he seemed so aggrieved that Silkypix was preferred by many!...
Surely you meant to say "the Elite".
