Your latest acquisition

Postman delivered it today ... I knew that it was going to be small ... but, this is really tiny ... my new Industar 50/3.5, straight from the Ukraine ... (xpost)

Look at that tiny little Tomioka, isn't it cute?

Left: Minolta MC Rokkor 58mm f/1.2, Right: Revuenon/Tomioka 55mm f/1.2

I'll miss the Tomioka's click-stops at 1.4 and 1.7 but it will have to go...

If anyone asks, tell them it shows that you have nothing to compensate for.

Came this morning : Just the K10D Body + batteries and charger ..
I cleaned the sensor , and put on the lens to check for dust bunnies ..

Finally, after a year having the K5, can't imagine why people don't use it:

Also needed for a while:

2x 16GB SD cards
New batteries for the K5&two battery holders,
And also hard needed a waterproof a memory card case for 8 SD cards. Cleans up the mess a bit, keeps my SD cards together. Can't live without it.

It looks good on there.

I found a yashica film body with a Zeiss T* 50mm f1.7 on the front of it. It was $9.99. I grabbed it, I don't intend to keep it so hopefully I can get my investment back.

K with Zebra lens

Had it for some time, but bought a cheap neck strap for it and taking it out shooting this weekend.

I'm waiting for a Canon Pixma Pro 100 printer due to arrive tomorrow, along with a package of Canon printing paper. This is the Adorama huge rebate deal, so that the printer and paper will end up costing $99.00! What's not to like??

when my old K10 died I did a lot of research, I had a list of other alternatives, I had the cash from a job to buy more or less whatever I wanted. But I bought another K10, It does exactly what I expect of it.

Another satisfied customer! Packard, during the first half of the twentieth century, was perhaps the finest luxury car produced in America. Their advertising slogan was "Ask the man who owns one." Hmmm. Pentax, Packard. Both roll off the tongue in a fine fashion.

Yes, agreed.
The K-10 is an excellent camera. You will certainly love it.
It's only limitation for me is the sensor noise over ISO 400.
Great with M42 lenses
