Har! I'll end up with a Pentax that works with Minolta lenses, and Minolta lenses that fit on a Canon. I just ordered a K-5II from Prodigital2000 on ebay, for $820. It should show up on Wednesday with my new colormunki. There is someone else that keeps bidding $810 for them, so mine, and the previous winner went at $820. On the plus side, when it shows up, I won't have to wait for hours while the battery charges. Note to self: when I'm ready to upgrade to the next new model, by my third party spare batteries and charger before I buy the camera, so that when it shows up, I can just pop a battery in and go. Now that I've ordered the K-5II, I expect that in a couple of weeks, Pentax will announce a mirrorless 24x36 sensor body with evf. It'll come with a K-mount adapter, and will have an optional optical rangefinder, that automatically zooms to the focal length of the lens. > > -- > > > Cheers, > Cotty > > > ___/\__ Broadcast, Corporate, > || (O) | Web Video Producion > ---------- <www.seeingeye.tv> > _____________________________ > > > > -- > 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. -- Larry Colen [email protected] http://red4est.com/lrc -- 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.
