Fun for some of us; others feel their space has been invaded because all of the added activity.

None of the prizes is so wonderful that I'll feel a need to get many 'raffle' tickets - in general I'll be comfortable with something close to my usual posting rate.

Any freebee is "wonderful" in my book.

My point is that nothing in these raffles will motivate me to post 100 times in a single day. On several times, I did exceed 100 posts in one day in summer 2018 because I was trying to push or pull the total to our overall goal. With only me benefiting from my posting more, I have a more casual attitude this time, so my posting will be less evident to regulars in particular sections.

This is fun. I too want the hot shoe cover.

**mlt** · 09-30-2019, 08:59 PM

Great fun will be rotating the hot shoe cover from Pentax body to Pentax body so they don’t get jealous of one getting too much time looking terrific ��

I would probably lose it.
Of my three digital Pentax cameras only the KP still has its hot shoe cover, partly because that is the only camera I've never used flash with.

I would put it on a K1000 (or other vintage camera) as a decoration

Do you think it matches the silver on the K-01?

stillshot2 · 09-30-2019, 09:51 PM

Since I'd never pay $50 for the hotshoe cover let's see if I win it?

I don't even have an external flash, so I will be a good owner. Now pretty please let it be sent my way? :P

I also don't think I will push myself to post a 100 times. I might make it, I might not.
