I recently moved away from Pentax to Olympus E-P3(mirrorless microFourThirds) mainly because of size. This interview was AWESOME to read as I still have a place for Pentax in my heart. I just love their way of thinking about size AND weather sealing which is both really important to me. If pentax were to release a Full Frame small mirrorless camera my wallet would really sweat. This is awesome!

I shipped it the only way the post office allowed me to. In a bubble wrapped envelope with lots of newspapers inside. I told the woman behind the counter that this lens was valuable and she told me it was OK, but obviously it wasn't. The front element was also scratched, but the case is still for processing at the norwegian postal service.

I had a filter on it when I sent it yeah and I haven't seen it after I sent it, no. So, the best scenario would be if the got his money back and then the lens is fully functional.

Looks like it's just the filter maybe?

I just sold my FA* 80-200 and the norwegian postal service didn't handle the shipping all too well. I almost felt a tear.

Just a question. Does this mean K-5 now has built-in geotagging?

TBH I never thought of that issue, and I understand your concerns. I mean, I am too a photographer and I know what copyright is. But one thing I personally wouldn't mind is someone using my photos for personal use. I will not take any photos unasked from anyone, that's why I'm asking. In these internet days there are free ways to get a lot of things, or at least cheap. Nobody until now has answered my question except boriscleto, but yeah, I did mind amateurish photos. I seriously doubt that there are no way to get photos of popular travel sites for free anywhere or at least cheap. Lonely Planet didn't offer me to print out my own, I had to order their print...

Hey, I've invested in about 50 small photo papers that I'm gonna print and hang up on my wall in my room, but I'm wondering where I can find some nice photos to print? I've tried googling after some travel photos as that's what I prefer, but I can't seem to find a place with many good photos. I've also tried flickr. Do any of you have any good tips to where I can find some? I prefer not paying for them and it's a must that they don't have a URL on them.

Only one of your sentences are on-topic. I hope you feel better after letting out your Apple-hate.

I'm personally just going for the Camera Connection Kit. Just as easy to just put the memory card in it and transfer from there... Not really an interesting app imho, but maybe useful for some.

I have to say I use mostly either 200 or 80, but when I look at the pics I would never be without everything in between when shooting weddings and concerts where I can't move a whole lot. Because of the size of telephotos I tend to put the camera on a tripod and that's when the zoom comes in handy. And I'm usually a prime guy investing in limitedprimes. But for me, telephotolenses just get too big for me to be primes. Especially at low-light concerts.

Is it your feet I see in the last pic? :P
Awesome photos. Tried this lens in a store once, the FOV is wild!

How far away can the subject be and K-7 still being able to light up with the focus assistance light?

Not fun at all! The only thing I miss about pentax is 3rd party support for underwater housings and GPS Geotaggers. I love my K20D for who it it and I'm always gonna love Pentax if they keep being the niche product they are.

I'm already investing in full frame lenses, but FF with higher res is not enough for me to purchase a new camera at this time. I will need considerably better low-light performance and I'm actually happy with 16MP FF. And please, pentax, include a GPS that auto-tags! Many pentaxians are travellers(light-weight, compact and robust system) and we ache for geotagging our photos in an easy way. There are no problems with battery life on current dSLRs anyway!

I would be happy with:
- Better sensor in general (better colors, sharpness etc)
- AWEsome ISO-performance
- compact body
- GPS with auto-tagging!!! If not in-body, at least a batterygrip!

Isn't the lack of new lenses lately maybe an indicator of Pentax developing digital FF lenses?
