Just one today
Posted By: Jimbo, 08-25-2008, 01:39 PM

Well my camera was just sent in for repair. As I mentioned earlier, it left the camera on top of a rental car in Salt Lake and drove away. All seemed to be ok until I tried my Pentax 12-24 and found it wouldn'r auto focus at all. Found out the len attachment ring is loose. Darn and this was my week off to shoot pictures. Looked at the K20... if its more then a few weeks I will be ordering the K20.. Cheers JIMBO<

PS: picture taken with my Tarmon 90mm... hand-held. any one have a spare K10 hanging around.. Just kidding

Nice shot, Jimbo, sorry about your camera.
My philosophy is - the camera stays around my neck until I'm sitting in the car because that's just the sort of thing that I would do.
