Thanks Fred: You are exactly right. I was not in any way suggesting Boj was lazy ... I was, in fact, trying to convince him not to leave Pentax for the bells and whistles that Canon and Nikon offer. As photographers, collectors and gadget freaks (which most of us are including myself) I think it is wise to keep reminding ourselves of the importance of taking pictures rather than trying to buy them with the latest and greatest gadgets....Great photographs have been made for hundreds of years with a lot more basic equipment than Pentx's latest offerings.

Well, Greene, I also have the highest respect both for Boz as a person and for Boz's truly "herculean efforts" with the K-mount Page. �However, I really do think that Vic meant Boz no disrespect in his reply. �Rather (it seemed to me) that Vic was politely (and respectfully) offering some countering wisdom, which would seem to be very appropriate here on the PDML (and which I suspect that Boz, as a long-time PDML-er, would invite).
