PENTAX K-M 18-55mm AL CRYSTALLIZED EDITION · 01:01 PM

This is the special Swarovski Crystal edition. It was shown at Photokina in 2008 but was never sold on the open market. I believe that purchase was by special order only direct from Pentax. I have never seen one offered for sale before.

WTH...

They give you extra crystals in case any go missing. No need for that, you will find the crystals inside the mirror box or lens, just shake em out before using

**stevebrot** · 11-19-2014, 03:06 PM

Even the strap was blinged...

...price new would have been at least 2X that of the plain jane K-m...

My biggest question is why they didn't make it in white or silver instead of black? It would have looked way better.

Na Horuk · 11-19-2014, 03:55 PM

Well listen to the Voice of Reason

I don't get such special editions at all. For spoiled teens? Dunno who else would use them.

VisualDarkness · 11-19-2014, 04:00 PM

I use a silver K-5 (and a regular black) and I'm not a teen anymore for sure.

Ron Hendriks use a silver one too and I bet he's not 18 either.

bsamcash · 11-19-2014, 04:10 PM

A bedazzled K-m? Just what my collection has been missing!

I should glue sequins onto my *ist DL2 and sell it for $500.

Like a rhinestone cowboy......

mrNewt · 12-01-2014, 10:15 AM

I'd rather buy a canvas and go paint my subjects than take that think out on a stroll...

VisualDarkness · 12-01-2014, 10:21 AM

You guys simply aren't bling enough to handle the camera!

And I NEVER want my bling level to reach that high... I'd rather kill myself...
