The photo of a camera shown in this advertisement has been used for other purposes for at least a year and most people here agree that it shows a K10D. Never easily put off by facts and reason, this has led the usual bunch of praters to indulge in wild speculation. No more, no less. The only real surprise is the fact that Pentax are for once advertising in such a highly visible way. Reportedly, over a third of the cabs in Cologne (out of a total of some 1000) and a bus now carry this ad. Oh, and the cabs not only have this ad on the roof but also headrest covers with "Pentax" written on them. :-) BTW, who's coming to Cologne? Haven't heard of anyone so far. Ralf -- Ralf R.
