However, there is no greeting card from Adam and the staff of the pentaxforums.

Allow me to rectify that.

So I created an simple unboxing video showing that I did get the camera.

You Tube

For any comments about my video, remember I am a Pentax shooter. I do not understand video

I think of Keeper Rate as the number retained - so higher is better at least in my vernacular.

Good SirTomster,

You did your duty, now we know that another member of Pentaxforums owns the Pentax K1 and is therefore more lavish.

And we need to post very actively so that in another month someone else can join you.

Am I required to get a tweed sports coat and a pipe?

As you can see from the video, my attire is not to be considered lavish. Maybe if Mikey was Retro or something. The joys of working for a small software development shop.

Yes, and be sitting by the fire with a glass of single malt scotch.
