Win a Pentax Limited Lens: Raffle Now Live!

Corgi · 08-29-2018, 01:12 AM

What would you do if you win the giveaway?

Gift the camera?
Sell it?
Keep and use it?
Put it in a display case?

also, what would you do with your old camera?!

I personally am torn I love my K-S2 to bits but the K1 is brilliant.

Keep and use it.

Tranzistors · 08-29-2018, 01:34 AM

Either sell it or have both K-1 cameras and won't swap the lenses as often, but it seems economically unjustifiable.

It's not for me, it's for my FA limiteds...

**ffking** · 08-29-2018, 01:52 AM

If by any chance we reached the K-1ii, I'd definitely keep it as I can't afford any new camera now and I'd like to see what it offered - if it was the K-1 (I've got one, but two bodies are useful fir some types of work) it depends on what costs it incurred (I'm outside the USA) - If I had to pay VAT I might have to sell it and put the money towards a D-FA* 50:1.4- just so that I'd won something. I'd think hard about giving it away, but there are so many deserving cases that that would have to be a whole new raffle.

It would become my daily driver. The K5 could become the backup.

Sell it and get 2 KPs.

They must be pretty cheap in the Philippines!

I will keep and use it. I have D-FA 100mm macro that suits K-1. A few aps-c lenses of mine also cover a full-frame image circle, so I should be good to go without buying a new lens for a while. For my K-50, depending on my needs, I will use it together with K-1.

**beachgardener** · 08-29-2018, 03:06 AM

Keep and use it.

thing is can we do 6,000 posts in two days?

First thing I would do would be to say thank you! Then we would find what to do!

technically, it's not that difficult - there's usially between about 90 and 180 members online at any given time - and if each of them (us) posted only 10 times, we'd rip through it - but I don't think that there's been any day yet where it's actually been achieved...

Keep it and upgrade it to a mark 2, if there still is time.

Saltwater Images · 08-29-2018, 03:25 AM

Keep it, shoot with it (a lot) and give my son my K-5II.
