Question
Do these ship right away? I live in San Diego, but I'll be out of town on 17th. Think I can get them by then? Thanks

Yeah, what's going on with Pentax's Canadian prices? It's shot up like 100-200%!? The only thing this price hike will bode well for is the resale market, but that pretty much screws Pentax's earnings from new lens sales. I dont' know what their strategy is on that one .
Thanks for all the friendly bumps. This was my favourite lens for a long time before I got my FA 35mm F/2 (thats my fav now). It is simply a joy to use, and the build quality almost puts Canon L glass to shame.
I've got a local buyer pending. Will update tomorrow.

PentaxForums.com Marketplace Listing Item for Sale
Pentax 12-24mm f/4 Asking Price
$525US or $645CAD firm Item Description
Bought used locally since last october, comes with front and rear caps and lens hood. No box. Perfect glass and excellent cosmetic condition. Selling because I just purchased a 5D mark II and need the money for Canon lenses.
Fellow Canadians, please don't PM me about your ebay prices, this lens is selling for around $1200CAD before tax in your local retail camera stores since the Pentax price hike last month. Good investment as used prices should only go up in the future.
Low-baller user names will be posted here and ridiculed. :p

I got wind of this site off of Gizmodo today. An analysis of the sensors from the major camera manufacturers. Quite revealing stuff.
Comparing the K200D, Canon 50D, and Nikon D300: Compare cameras
They measure RAW output instead of JPG which is really good because it always bugs me when biased review sites like DPreview (Amazon.com owned) compare sensor noise using JPGs (instead of RAW) AND with the camera's default settings (ie. Pentax has noise reduction off at default while all others have some NR by default). That's like having some unequal variables within an experiment and expecting us to take their reviews objectively.
Comparing the K20D, K200D, and K10D: Pentax
Very similar sensor performance between the 3 cameras.

Thanks for the free bump :)
Here are some sample photos of what shots from this lens might look like. All of these were shot last spring in JPG (didn't discover RAW then :p)
17mm
Yours truly in front the Ottawa Museum of Art. I cropped the bottom off because my friend took this photo and got too much ground and not enough sky
17mm

10mm
I would contest this is one of my fastest AF lens.

If you're going to work on it with adobe anyways, why go through the trouble of converting PEF to DNG?? For the sake of SD card space? That's the same argument people have when they shoot JPG instead of Raw. So why not just shoot DNG straight up?

Oh no, I think I fell off the wagon tonight. I sold my Leica point and shoot a few weeks ago and I got this tonight:
I do think this is starting to become mission impossible, I only lasted a month and a half! :o Why does Pentax have to make so many highly attractive lenses? :lol:

Leica D-Lux 3 Asking Price
$530USD Item Description
Hi there,
I am selling this excellent condition used Leica D-Lux 3 10 megapixel camera with everything included. There is not a single scratch anywhere on the camera, so I am confident to say this is in Mint/New working condition. You will get everything included in the original packaging, the camera, the leather case, the battery, the charger, all the manuals, the unused warranty card, the Adobe Photoshop CD, all the cables, and even all the plastic wrapping to the manuals and chargers are in the box.
I have done some purchasing through these forums and I do have some feedback. My ebay name is tachyon1701 and i have 100% there. I am posting the item here before I list it on ebay. Hopefully a fellow pentaxian would enjoy this sweet camera as I have!
Please message me for inquiries. I will do my best to answer them quickly and concisely.
Thank you.
Kind regards,

I'm still on board! (Sort of...) I didn't buy a single lens since i joined this thread but I did pick up a old rangefinder for a heck of a deal! A Konica Auto S2. Going to use it to play with expired film. :)
