I love this guy's stuff with his Pentax K1 & 24-70, all long exposures of city scenes.

Wow! Exquisite. Both these photographers have set themselves apart from the crowd, which isn't easy.

He's very Clarksonesque.

Kai at Digital Rev has mentioned angry Pentaxians as well, he said we probably didn't get enough cuddles as children. Granted this was after he described Pentax cameras as 'made by Aspergers, for Aspergers'...

NB I noticed a couple of chips on the body of the lens, on the macro switch and near the focus ring. £45 inc P&P.

I found this guy on Flickr; I love the understated dry wit and low contrast look of his images. And he uses a K1 and FA limiteds.

The idea of off camera flashes is quite interesting; each flash would freeze the water, and you'd get a multiple exposure (rather than long exposure) effect. It could look awful, but it would at least be original. Foreground rocks etc would be supernaturally pin-sharp.

I think I will be selling my K30 soon, but it's in full working order and I'd want a bit more than £50 for it . I'd be happy to undercut eBay prices if sold on the forum though. There are a some scratches to the rear LCD but other than that it's in great condition. Boxed, charger, spare batteries etc.

3 is an excellent travel shot / street scene. (I don't understand the title?) I really like no. 6 too.
