I'd stick with the Pentax. Olympus seem to be fleeing the DSLR market. Not sure if they are going to continue with their standard 4/3rds cameras and lenses.

On of the reasons for the difference is the K20D has a delta array layout for the pixels.

Look about half way down.

Delta arrays blur the image.

And any idea about UK availability? I can't see anywhere that carries cactus products in the UK

Wow, I definitely want two sets!!!

Any idea if a UK supplier will carry them?

Was about to go for some Securelink T2Ds as they also have a hotshoe design so no need for extra cables/adapters for my Metz flashes.

Wow, why do you want to rid yourself of such a fantastic collection of lenses?

I love my SMC-A 50mm f1:1.7. It is one incredibly sharp lens even wide open. From what I have seen the f1.7 lenses are sharper than the f1.4s.

BTW I couldn't manage a sharp shot with my A50 until I got my eyes tested. Now I use the dioptre adjustment and it has made a big difference.

Chris, glad to see that business is doing well. However, I still think you could have opened a shop in West Yorks. I never get to watford to play with gear..and there is no one else nearby with the wide range you stock

As I am a West Yorkshire lad, never say never!

Damn! How about the South West... All we have down here is a LCE (which is supposed to be a 'Pentax Pro Centre'). Sadly it is a small shop with low stock.

About the shop, great news and so is the lens hire. I may be looking into this in future to help with certain shoots and to help me decide what lenses to get (nothing like it being your own).

K10/20D can withstand torrential rain pretty well for an extended period and you can still use the built in flash! I wouldn't dare dunk my K10 but rain, spray, etc. I'm fine with.

I'd hate my camera to end up as muddy as in that advert, grime like that is hard to get rid of and when it dries the dust ends up going everywhere.

Anyone off to the fireworks tonight?

Comment by Tyr posted on Calling all Devon PUs! at 12/08/2009 - 19:32

I was there, have not checked my pictures yet, still wondering if I should go out again tonight for round 2...
