Hi CharLac
Coffee is my poison nowadays.
Work too many weird shifts.
Has to be watchful drinking nowadays the law likes to ping you anytime of day.
No way to get to work without taxi's and that costs more than what you would earn for the day(s)

It's no good selling them here.

Yeah I'm sure not many NASA actors would be interested.
Get out of the studio and you might find some potential buyers.

Trying to pull a fast one, eh?

If it is comfortable, and you like it, then it is perfect!

If I am walking around shooting, a cap or hat gets in the way. Since I use the diopter adjustment in my viewfinder, I always push my glasses up my forehead when looking through it. A hat gets in the way. With a ball cap I can turn it around, but I think that is a dopey looking way to wear a hat.

I have a huge collection of hats.

Maybe I'll lay them out sometime and photograph them. Like one of those gigapano images I've done. Just laying all my hats out will take a fair bit of room. More than half of an average sized room in a residential abode. Probably use my Sigma 16mm Rectilinear Fisheye or the 28mm Mini Wide, on my K5IIs, which works perfectly.

So I won't be needing a K-3.
