Yep, thanks. +1

Almost forgot, but I did handle the Q in Paris. Just for a breef moment and didn't pay enough attention to the settings of the camera. It is small, very small, and maybe to small for my tasting. But with some attention you can actually make some descent pictures. This one is from a girl working at the Pentax boot and trying to keep visitors from stealing (they lost the view finder

).

So this is just from a jpg. Also have two DNG's and they are huge (almost 20 MB).

Well it is almost one year since I visited the Pentax boot in Paris and up till now there are limited things coming.

Big on the list the long telelens, but the coming off the 560mm is a very expensive item that has limited customers.

It's sad that no feedback between us and Pentax...

You might want to resend the information. By now I doubt anyone who still works there has it.

Good idea. Why don't you, Ron? Hey, maybe at Photokina?

If you have the time, it would be great to "remind" the new management!

Only a 2 hour drive to Köln from Eindhoven... in Canada that would be a "trip to the store" kind of drive!

I'm planning on going to the PhotoKina. I just bumped the poll to get some extra votes. Hoping to get 600 entry's and make a new version. Maybe not much changes, but it would be great to say that it is supported by a larger group of Pentax-users.
