In january my wife bought a Pentax optio 430 (from her own money). So I thought it would be the right time to spend my money for the 77mm limited the PDML had me made lust after. There was no serious discussion. (Just a grin now every time I am thinking about what equipment I would like lugging around .... )

Christian, if you could clone your wife, you could make a fortune selling copies of her to PDML list members - <g>. Fred - - - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
