I may have to bite the bullet and glue mine on. What kind of glue did you use?

Hi,
I shot my first and only wedding a little over a year ago.
I followed the advice of this site for my indoor flash photos, and the results were great. Bear in mind that I was using Nikon equipment at the time, and their bounce flash implementation is a little better than Pentax's. I recommend trying these techniques out in advance, if possible, to see how much flash compensation you will need to add.

There are quite a few pages and tutorials and the site navigation is a bit convoluted, but I recommend reading as much as you can and then trying out some of his techniques.

Excellent cosmetic and functional condition. I am the second owner of this lens, purchasing it from the original owner about 8 months ago. Glass is perfect. Includes front and rear caps and lens hood. $240
Nikon AF-S DX NIKKOR 55-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED VR
I am the original owner of this Nikon Refurbished lens, having purchased it two months ago. Fewer than 100 shots. Selling only because I replaced it with the 70-300, which can be used on DX and FX. Like new condition. Includes front and rear caps, lens hood, lens pouch, and original box. $175 |

If the seller is the person I have previously done business with, his native language is not English, which may explain the confusion regarding the 43mm lens. He explained to me that he is selling most of his Pentax gear to fund purchases of lenses for his Leicas.

I wish I had the cash right now.
Based on the wording of the description and the location, I think the seller might be the same guy I bought a 1.7x autofocus adapter from a couple of months ago. Very nice guy.

Hi,
I picked up one of these cameras a few months ago. I like it very much. I can't really address your first four questions, but I will comment on the last one.
My camera came with the SMC Pentax-F 35-70 f/3.5-4.5 lens. In my opinion, this is the ideal walk-around lens for this camera. Very sharp, small, and light. It takes 49mm filters, but buy a cheap 49-52mm step-up ring for your filters and hood, and you will be set.

Hi everyone,
I am glad to be back in the Pentax world after an extended absence.
I first started shooting Pentax in 1978 with my trusty ME. Over the years, I shot with an ME Super, an LX, a 645N, and a PZ-1P. I made the move to Nikon when I went digital about 11 years ago, but I kept my LX and a few Pentax lenses.
I picked up a used K-5iis a few months back and have added a few modern lenses to accompany my legacy glass. I am happy to say that I am quite pleased with the ergonomics of the camera and the quality of the images I am getting. I much prefer the K-5 to my D7000, which I have since sold.
Looking forward to adding to my lens collection, and I am very excited to hear about the upcoming Full Frame body.
Marc
