Meet you in Wisconsin Parallax, it must be about half way.

The beer's on me, Norm!

Ick... It's a bit too early for beer. I just ate a grilled cheese sandwich (just had to), now off to take some pictures.

No cheese for me, though picture taking does sound good. Sun is out...

I think it's the off-brand of Ricoh.

Yeah, what a shock that a company that specialized in pool tables and bowling balls didn't get motorcycles right.

Has anybody noticed that this thread is the most populace in the K-3 forum and is about 50% ahead of #2?

On a serious note, it may be the only thread outside PYP that has gone dozens and dozens of pages with no one calling anyone, or anyone's ideas stupid, or ignorant, or any other insulting remarks. This thread must not perish!

They bundle a tool kit with every camera!

Oh man, let's hope you have NOT jinxed it...
Kind of jealous on the OP... wish I would of started such a popular thread

Shouldn't matter what name is on your camera! Your images should speak for themselves. It's the photographer's eye/skills that make the difference not the brand label on the gear. Posers.
