I have Image Synch on my mobile. I have tried to download onto my android tablet, no go. Is it possible that because I have it on my mobile, using the same e-mail address as the tablet it will only allow one download. The message I get is it has downloaded, but does not appear on the tablet. Sorry this is a bit rambling, the old mind isn't what it was.

So very sad, a beautiful place. When it's gone, it's gone. Generations have farmed it, vandalism on a huge scale. You cannot make more land. Very annoyed to read this. (ex farming family)

To Takuman. Hi John. Your just a youngster. I'm now 82 and have just bought the silver limited anniversary K1 Mk2. Now that "MIGHT" see me out but you should look ahead and buy something new for your old age.
CHEERS Vic.

Just a thought on this. I am in my late seventies and have owned Pentax cameras for many years. I have 4 Pentax DSLR bodies, I will not buy another as these will see me out. I would hazard a guess that the majority of Pentax owners are also increasing in years and new (younger) camera owners will not buy Pentax as new technology will change cameras completely. I do hope I am wrong. Any thoughts on this before I am thrown out for heresy!

Completely with you on this one Robl. We have just lost during a hard frost a much loved Camellia that came from late parents and it is like losing an old friend, now I am searching for photographs of it. I shall adopt your approach and have a photo book made. Good luck with yours.

I have previously posted about this lens. Paid £19.99 for it. Works well on both K1, K70 and K3ii. I will not part with it, good performer when used in M mode for me.

Just received an SMC Pentax 200/4 purchased from Japan, absolutely mint, arrived via DHL in 4 days! I now have enough vintage lens, 28mm, 2 x 50s, 135/3.5 2x200/4s, (my original one purchased by me in 1980 has developed the dreaded F....S and is sitting in what passes for sunshine at the moment) and my original 300/4 completes the manual line up. All a pleasure to use. Love them
