P.S. - I'll bet you're the one who sniped me out of the cool LX display stand...

Moi?

Actually I have several dealer display stands. If you want one PM..

There's also a Pentax belt buckle out there but a little too pricey for me. $10 is pretty much my max...

A former Pentax Rep I met on photo.net sent me a KX pewter belt buckle. As you ,may infer from my avatar, it is WAY too cool, but I can't find the image.

That is a Hot Pentax.

Start a flame war?

You know how many times I've burned my eyebrow off with one of these?

It's all fun and games until someone looses an eyebrow

Not just high Iso, but just plain HIGH. Cellphone pictures look great, when you are high....... I guess the new camera performs really badly at high Iso so people have to be high to appreciate it.
And they see in Technicolor

So, ISO now means Instantly Stoned Operator?

Wow a KX one too? Hmmmm...the only one out there now is the ME-not-Super...

You need to wear that...heck, I'm so tempted by the ME one even though it's like $25! I'm a geek like that and I love my belt buckles

My newest phone has an AF lens, and it's a Zeiss

But yeah...for the size, I'd rather bring the Oly Stylus loaded with Neopan 1600. Zeiss or not...f/2.8 or otherwise...cell phones have a long way to go...

Nah... Pentax UC-1 loaded with Tri-X - it's even smaller than the Oly...

ryan s · 04-25-2009, 10:47 AM

But can it be found in a thrift store for $3? Or $5 like my Leica?

Just messin around (although the prices are true). I honestly pay more attention to the P&S cams at St. Vinny's since the SLRs get snapped up quick. No one cares about the P&Ss. Still mad that I missed out on a $25 Yashica T4 on Craigslist

Definitely on the lookout for anything Pentax where ever I go.

It was a joke....and a good one...
of course (although my wife doesn't agree)...I have a highly tuned sense of wittiness.....and with this gift....I find humor in items that mere mortals cannot. I crack myself up all the time....
I won't buy the K-7......it'll light your hair on fire....
see...???
