FWIW, the Vivitar 285HV has a trigger voltage around 6 volts & is safe to use
with Pentax DSLRs (and probably Cannon or Nikon).
I currently have three of them and am always on the look-out for more (although
I prefer the older "Made in Japan" models because they're more reliable).

Single malt scotch can only be distilled from malted barley from a single

Hi David -
Isaac Szabo did the conversion -

His prices for conversions are very reasonable. The K01 is the second
camera he's done for me, the first being a Nikon P6000 compact.

Many years ago I was a Marine stationed at Yuma AZ. We crossed the border
into Mexico, and after a nice dinner, we visited a liquor store. We bought
a few bottles of brand name liquor, but one of my friends couldn't resist a
gallon jug labeled "alcohol" for 15 cents. He

You could probably get something from the hardware store, and pour some orange

I bought the K-01 back in 2012 when Pentax discontinued the camera and
liquidated their inventory. For a few years it was my studio macro
camera - comparable to the K5 in IQ but with focus peaking for macro
work. But the K01 has been pretty much idle for the past several years.

No, Costco liquor prices are the same as the fancy wine and liquor store in my
town. But Costco does import scotch that’s bottled as their house brand,
Kirkland. It’s good and somewhat of a bargain. But it’s a blend. Some of the
bottles sold online by Flaviar and others can be purchased here.
OUCH!
Sounds like socialism.
Not even Costco can offer lower prices? WTF?

I usually don't pay $90 for Lagavulin; one has to shop the discount liquor
stores and keep an eye out for specials.
When both Laphroig and Lagavulin are priced too high, I go for Green Label
