B&H are a very reputable dealer but their shop in Manhattan is a complete zoo. Too many people, too much hustle, too much hard sell. I like to contemplate my purchases not be rushed into them. Adorama is almost as bad; 17th St. Photo were better but they seem to have stopped stocking Pentax stock.

Good luck with your search. My eyes are set much lower until I have a windfall of some sort.

Clarky... I too have the Ebony edition of the 43mm and wished I had the Titanium version. SRS only had the one colour at the time and, well, I wanted it NOW...

Best wishes, Kris.

I see Nikon tilt/shift lenses in K mounts from time to time. Would that cure you?
I didn't realise that Nikon lenses ever came in PK mounts. I certainly be interested in seeing what they go for.

Yes, a bit of a trek but I have family in North Cornwall so I might do it as part of a trip down to visit them.

Perhaps I should bring the Horseman

Best wishes, Kris.

Seems unlikely someone would want to sell the FA31 unless they has completely lost their marbles, but good luck in your search!

Yup, like this you mean? I haven't tried it myself but others have including Clarky and Anvh.

Best wishes, Kris.

I'm tempted to book too. It would be funny if the entire group was toting Pentax!

I think Aiki should get a special prize for setting such an inspiring theme!

Now to ponder long exposures. Shame I won't be in Cornwall over the next two weeks...

Seems a likely situation Malo.

Sadly the dioptre adjustment for my K20D is as far over as it will go and that is just about OK. I have the FA-1W on my LX which is wonderful. I really must get a Katz-eye for my K20D. I have been thinking about it for ages but haven't bitten the bullet yet. I am sure I'd use my manual lenses more if I did, and it is a shame not to get good use out of the Jupiter 90 or my various nifty 50s (although the f/1.2 is getting a fair bit of use which is a shame because I intended to sell it on! ).
