How many I didn't have my camera with me stories have had on this thread? Here is one more.
Last night we had the annual Art Night festival in my city. The biggest event here.
Every year I take my camera with me. Every year.
This year I decided that I will not so I can enjoy the festival, as I also have to pay attention to my kids so they don't get lost in the crowd.
I was watching an orchestra playing when a guy with a camera two meter away crouched down to take picture. I gave a quick look and saw a white lens. So I thought canon. Sad face.
Then I gave a second look and it looked like it was silver rather than white. I then tried to look at he strap but the colors were faded somehow. At this moment my curiosity had gotten the best of me so I just approached him.
.....and behold it was a Pentax k20D with a SMC 28-100m lens mounted on it. I almost hugged him. Aaaaahhhhhh!
A Pentaxian in my own city. He has had the k20D since its release. I spoke with him and he been planning to get a K-5 even though we talked a little about the K-3.
The only time I met a pentax user and did not have my own camera. Crap!
