The way I read the rebate form is that the $100 rebate can apply to a camera body purchase alone but, for a rebate on the accessories, they have to be purchased with the camera body. So, a rebate can be had on the camera body even if no accessories are purchased.

Anybody agree or disagree with this interpretation?

That's the way I read it.

I may be posting a K10D in the "Marketplace" in the very near future.

Rebates... an indication that it's rebate time of year.

Now I want Pentax Canada to go away and Pentax USA to take over... not a distributor.

If I am reading it correctly, the rebates on the lenses are applicable only when they are purchesed with a K20D/K200D. This makes the rebates useless for me...

Interested in the lens? I was thinking about upgrading to the K200D from my K100D. Maybe I could get the lens and you could pay me back for it at no charge. Your profile says you are but a state and time zone away, so perhaps this could work out ...

Drop me a pm if interested ...

Just placed order at Adorama, K200D, 16-45mm, a flash and a battery grip.

I'm moving from Canon. Will sell off most of my L lenses, only keeping at 300D, 70-200mm F4 and 50mm f/1.8 to cover long end.
