What are you talking about?

I would like to request that if anyone has any photos stored that they trash them immediately because again they are my photos and should have never ended up onto the net in the first place.

I apologize to Pentax and more specifically Ned Bunnell and Ken Curry who had faith in us to and expected this to stay under the table. We appreciate all you have done for us in the past and hope this doesn't cause any separation in our relationship.

Dearest apologies,

Chris Warkocki

I think everybody here agrees that you're doing a good thing for Pentax.
Even I now considering to get this lens when I upgrade my camera.

Wish everything is well with you and your relationship w/ Pentax.
Otherwise you can show them this thread as a proof for them.
I look at Pentax's pitiful web sites, they need all the help you can give keep up the good work

But it also says: "You may pre-order it now and we will deliver it to you when it arrives."

Don`t forget that MSRP for DA17-70 was around $600 and the price was very close to it when it hit shelves recently......
