Not sure how to post this, but on the other forum, JohnCPentax (who I think is a Pentax employee) posted this tour. I also got a notice on my Facebook page for the Minneapolis event. Since the only place I can get a hold of Pentax gear in person doesn't currently stock it, I just might make the drive up from San Diego to OC to check out the K-7.
PENTAX is planning a K-7 tour through several U.S. cities. We will show up in the towns below with the K-7 and some of our favorite lenses to try out. The best part is we will hold a drawing for a K-7 at every gathering! We would love to involve our PENTAXIANs with a little help on location (and permit!) advice, etc. Is there a great gathering spot in a park or do you know a restaurant or hotel with some space we could use?
Please make sure you post your city in the subject line of the reply. Sorry, we can't add any cities at this point.
