Can you clarify the date these offers expire as other retailers indicate it is 26th June!!

Very impressive images.
My K10D is still going strong after 12 years and shows no signs of retiring itself. A really well built "photo machine"!! I use it as my back up to the K3 and am happy with the images produced particularly when using old prime lenses.

Congratulations. Very well done!!
It is not just Pentax entries that are few and far between in these competitions.
Canon and Nikon dominate with occasional entries from Sony and Fuji

LCE never did stock much Pentax. I think you can order and collect from Jessops.
In Scotland the only retailer where you can get your mits on gear is Merchant City Cameras in Glasgow.
York Camera Mart carries a good range of Pentax cameras and lenses.

If you are in Edinburgh during August a visit to the EPS exhibition is well worthwhile.
There are some 200 prints on display and for the £5 entrance fee you also get a colour brochure with all the prints.
There are almost as many mono on display as there are coloured this year.

I generally use the "Natural" option in custom image on my K3 and wonder if there is any real benefit in shooting "Reversal Film". I have tried this option when shooting landscapes and can't see any real difference

I have used Pentax cameras and lenses in all sorts of conditions and have not had any problems. Mind you I have never dropped one in a lake!!
I do however avoid storing wet/damp kit until it is dried out.
Pentax, along with other manufacturers, do not seem to have an IP (Ingress Protection) rating, so presumably they have not been independently tested.

It does not makeup for the "Pentax is domed" article a couple of weeks go.
