Many of them say, "I used to shoot Pentax in the 70's. Are they still around?" I did hear one C/N/S person once praise the mode dial interlock on the K-7. (I *really* miss having that device on my K20D.) > 2 Do you get the pictures you like with this equipment? If not, why do you > use it? Who not get the gear that does the job? Yes, I do. But I've been yearning for much higher resolution, dynamic range and bokeh look of the type that only medium format cameras and backs provide. So that's my target upgrade path. The D800e almost cuts it. So does the 645D. But I think that a Hassy/PhaseOne is in my future somewhere. As to why not get it? Heh: limited budget. But a used Hassy with a P25 back is within the realm of possible, so that gives me hope. Most of what gets me the pictures I want isn't due to the camera body and lenses anyway. It's more to do with lighting and grip gear. That stuff I can afford, so that's where my spare money has been going. -- -bmw -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
