A Look at the Winners of our Special Landscape Photo Contest

By PF Staff in Giveaways and Events on Feb 5, 2023

Last month we wrapped up our 2022 Special Landscape Photo contest, through which forum member ivanvernon generously awarded a D-FA 645 90mm F2.8 Macro and FA 31mm F1.8 Limited lens to the two winners.  Today, we would like to take a brief look at the winning photos and share a little bit more about them, straight from the photographers themselves!

Giveaway: Wooden "J Limited" Grip for the Pentax KP

Post a comment for a chance to win

By PF Staff in Giveaways and Events on Dec 30, 2022

A highly limited, premium wood grip for the Pentax KP has recently debuted (only) in Japan, as part of the "Pentax J Limited" line of factory-customized gear.  Made of natural walnut wood by Miroku Techno Wood, it not only adds an elegant look to the KP, but also improves the handling via an ergonomic shape reminiscent of the grip on larger Pentax cameras.  The grip can easily be attached using an Allen wrench.

Given the grip's scarcity outside of Japan, we will give away one of these grips to one lucky KP user: the winner will be randomly drawn from among those who post a comment on this post.  This giveaway is open to users worldwide and shipping is included, but you must own a Pentax KP to enter.

The grip being given away is shown in the photo below.  The giveaway closes at the end of January 2023, so please be sure to leave a comment before then.  Good luck!
