Originally posted by creampuff Well Russell, you're making a lot of assumptions with regards to your guesstimates on numbers. Even then, the absolute numbers of SDM failure don't appear high.
Anyway just so you know, the number of Pentax users in Singapore is most certainly greater than 50...
(the pitfalls of making simplistic assumptions based on group photos posted)
I'm not making any assumptions about the numbers. 75 is 0.1%, 1%, 10%, of the numbers given. If you think there are 75,000 SDM lenses owned by the people that post on DPR, then more power to you. If you think there are 7500, well, good for you. If you think there are 750 or less, then you really need to rethink your assumptions.
While you state there are more than 50 members to your group, you didn't answer the real question of how many SDM lenses are actually owned. If you can't answer that, then your pronouncement of the extent of the issue is about as good as your understanding of 1st grade math.
Thank you
