Took It By The Skin Of My Teeth....

I just killed my entire budget for WAY too long over this one and I won it by a mere $1 over the competition which was pretty darned fierce! ($104.50, the second highest bid was $103.50 exactly one dollar less.) Not Pentax, but not too shabby. This is likely the semi-pro kit I will use for a while till I can afford a DSLR. Looks like I may have to go Canon on that first one though. They won't go on a Pentax, alas, no adapter, but from what I can tell they are an excellent bunch for use with a Canon with an adapter. I'll probably go low end used Canon, then keep that as a backup DSLR as soon as I can afford to upgrade to some really good Pentax digital gear. But for my first "pro" starter kit I think they'll do even if it does mean shooting for a while analog and eating a heck of a lot of Japanese noodles for the next couple of months....
