Do they offer that in an online store? 'cause if I check my favorite pricing websites I can't get a deal in that range… :(

need a fill light from behind, which set a small lighting effect on the hair. Also the face is too dark for my taste. I'd used another reflector from the right side.
I personally prefer large studio lights/softboxes

you are right, I have some trouble with the focus-screen, which front focusses on my K-r.
I find it hard to adjust the focus screen.

I like the preset a lot. You choose the f-stop you want, than turn the small ring back to wide open for focussing, turn it back for exposure and do the shot.

Maybe you lack a focus screen, like the Katzeye focussing screens?
Since I installed mine from focussingscreen.com I have a 90% "hitrate".
Just keep practicing and follow these instructions how to learn to focus.

Apple is not a religion, although Steve Jobs would appreciate that for sure.
But most of Apple's product just work… it took M$ years to catch up and Windows 7 is now at a point, where it just works. Nevertheless I won't switch back to Windows again. Even with Windows 7 (which I also have installed on my MacBook) Windows is still awkward to use and many "features" are so well hidden somewhere in the system, that I really question the development team in Redmond if they ever have asked a non-IT person to try it, before they launch the next version…
Still, there are a lot of very good apps out there, which I miss on the Mac side. But when it comes down to day-to-day work, both systems will do the job. I stopped proselytizing years ago for one reason:
Once people know, that you are an IT-knowledgable person, they will start asking you for help and then, once THEY messed it up again and again, will blame you again…
Naaa, I tell people "sorry, I don't have a clue, that's why I use my Mac. Don't ask me about tips or support. Buy whatever you want and go ask the sales guy for support"
Just my 2cts.

that is pretty amazing and good to know. I always was told, that I need at least Class-8 cards or even better... stupid me, instead of doing the math myself, I was believing others…
Anyways - even Class-10 SDHC have become dirt cheap these days. Just recently bought a 32GB no-name from eBay for small money and this works pretty well.
The limiting factor for me is not the card, it's the buffer size of my K-r. This will make me buy a K-5 pretty soon...

anyways - you are damn lucky to get all that equipment for just $25.
It's worth at least $150 on eBay.
Go and buy some film and shot some pictures. I really enjoy my original Spotmatic ;)
