Well yes indeed I have discussed Pentax many times and fallen out over that also having been told what I'm meant to be thinking. I read many of the threads but only really got involved with the politics from then on as a divergence of views was expected, there would be no such thing as politics otherwise.

I know exactly where you are coming from there and I must admit to being a little jaded myself. I was asked to cover an 80th party in April, I took a small deposit on the promise of further print sales. I then sweated my b8lls off for an hour and a half and got the pictures she wanted. Not a peep from her since and this is not an isolated case. I've been thinking along the lines you took (metaphorically at least), bin the digital and return to the darkroom

Thank you for your kind words, with the advent of Twitter, Facebook etc I think that forums are changing generally. It was sad to watch the demise of the British Journal of Photography forum as that was an early and completely open site, it just ran into the sands as it's members got bored with the constant yap of technology rather than the considered debate of the craft and I see this happening elsewhere. IT people do tend to be a bit cliquey and it's noticeable here to a certain extent but there are still some good people around.
