For my part, I was extremely polite and business like. I think it was the
lack of 'official sounding' wording that led to the questions people had
(the word copyright was never used) and the fact that the request came
second hand (albeit through Frank :-) )

not proactively provide what would be considered fairly normal
information
The original message clearly stated their intended use -- for a slide show
to run at trade shows. It explicitly said that the images would not be
used on their website or in print ads.
Marco is a close personal friend of mine and asked me if I thought the
membership of the PDML would allow Pentax Canada to use a few images so
that they could get rid of the boring, standard sample pictures they have
in their slide show. I said that I thought they might, but directed him to
Frank since I hadn't been active here for years.
I'll just say that the nature of some of the responses sent to Marco really
surprised and embarrassed me.
