A devastating news

Hi, guys. The much hated k-5 basher here.

I have just learned, despite my desperate plea, that my best friend on the forum here raffwal bought a silver k-5 . . . . I think he went for the looks.

OP, I think your best friend probably knows a good thing when he sees it.

But there is nothing wrong with beautiful, highly functional neck bling!

If you really cared about this friend of yours it wouldn't matter if he used a Nikon F6 or a Pentax K5

Can't be all that bad...it put a big smile on Otis' little face!

Just let me know when RiceHigh's got one and I'll stop correcting the pink cast I've been getting in my skies recently.

Raffwal is a harsh but quite a sensible critic of things in general. I have not lost my hope yet.

Well, I rather that he shoots with F6, or 645D is ok too. Not a bad camera.

Hm . . . . Seeing is not believing, at all. That is to me the single most important implication of photography.
