http://www.mail-archive.com/pentax-discuss%40pdml.net/ I have the Nikon D1 so a starkist D is not high on my list, this year anyway. <g>I too have many Pentax 35 mm cameras and the 6x7,which i think is great. Possible some enablement in the 35mm format very soon,as is Frank. Looking forward to seeing your work on the PUG soon.
