"The Ultimate Asahi Pentax Screw Mount Guide 1952-1977"

audoandleydo · 05-23-2009, 03:44 PM

I'm a new member and have a newbie's question: does any PentaxForum member in the greater Houston area have a copy of "The Ultimate Asahi Pentax Screw Mount Guide 1952-1977", or know of anyone who does? I have quite a few questions, most of them too basic to post in this forum, which I believe can be quickly and authoritatively answered by this Guide.

Many thanks for any information you might be able to provide!

As i said in your welcome thread (in case you didn't see that)

That book is very rare and can be pricey.

Just ask your questions here, there is a wealth of knowledge here on pentaxforums.

Thanks for the reassurance. I feel embarrassed to post what must seem like incredibly dumb questions to Pentax aficianados. Perhaps I'll screw up my courage in the weeks to come. In the meantime I'll just read as many of the other members posts as possible and keep searching for my book. Any other wonderful Pentax guides you can direct me to?

There aren't any dumb questions. All of us started out newbies, audoandleydo.

I used to think, "There are no stupid questions, only stupid answers," until I started going online. Uninformed questions are one matter, easily and politely and helpfully dealt with. Stupid, trolling, leading, and other toxic questions, the malware of discussion forums, are quite another matter. Fortunately, PentaxForums does not experience such bad behaviour, right? Right. For such, see the 4chan.org /p/ board.
