That one lens is probably worth more than my entire collection of camera gear. I would love one but if I had that sort of money to spare I would probably buy a body/tilt-shift lens of a... ahem... entirely different make. I wouldn't abandon Pentax, just have that one lens/body combination to make up for the hole in the Pentax line-up.

Best wishes, K.

Well now the price has dropped I'd get one of the 300-800mm zooms but sadly they don't make them in Pentax fit.

There are a few of these available on abebooks and similar websites. I haven't indulged yet but I did just buy a large format volume called "Asahi Pentax Photography: 1964 Asahi Pentax International Photo Contest". I succumbed to temptation because I was born in 1964.

Best wishes, Kris.

Just tried it out... the focus point is selectable when using a DA lens (in this case my kit lens) and manual focus but defaults to the centre point with older lenses (in this case an SMC-A 50mm f/1.7). (This was with the K20D, I assume the K10D will be identical.)

Best wishes, Kris.

Try setting up a 5x4 view camera on one then covering your head in a towel because you haven't got around to getting a proper dark cloth yet. Then you feel a right plonker...

There was a review of one in this month's "outdoor" photography which was positive.

That was the intention! I used a long exposure and panned along the horizon.

Best wishes, K.

Well done Aiki. The quality of the images in this round was superb, I wouldn't like to have made the call myself.

Best wishes, Kris.

I like the first and the last. With the first I'd be tempted to crop it on the righthand side through the pier to add a little to the symmetry of the shot.

Best wishes, K.
