Please please don't send me a personal check only cashable in USA, Canada,
or any country other than Italy. Send them to PDML distributors in your
country (once they'll show-up and buy some posters from me!)

 I would also be interested in a poster.  Just tell me where to send the
 check.

Hello,

This is a strange period of my life, where I resigned from my work after
twenty years, and now I'm trying to setup my own business. Maybe you'll
undertand I'm pretty puzzled and busy now.

Ok, this said, here are the news about the 1952-2002 - 50 years of Pentax
SLR cameras poster.

First, for those among you which are also AOHC members, please note that all
AOHC members will receive one poster for free, shipped together with
Spotmatic magazine No.33 next August (sorry, it will be shipped folded in
envelope). Extra copies can be ordered at $2.00 each (AOHC members) or $4.00
each (non-members), plus package and postage.

However, during this year 2002 celebrating such an important anniversary,
I'll be happy to extend to all PDML members the reduced cost per poster
($2.00 each). Then non-members will pay $4.00 each poster.

I checked the cost of carton tubes and postage for shipping it worldwide
from Italy (priority mail). For the full details following the link:
http://digilander.libero.it/pentaxday/postere.htm

Unfortunately, as you can see the postage for such a large and heavy poster
is also heavy.
Some time ago, somebody thought it could better to ship a bunch to some
PDML'er in N. America for distribution there, rather than many separate
posters being airmailed from Italy. What do you think now?

 Dario,

 I expect mailing within the US would cost $3.50 per poster,
 add to that the cost of the mailing tube,  plus the cost of
 production on your side and mailing to the US.
 What do you think this would run on a per poster basis.

 If this all is not too expensive, we can find a way to work it out.
 I'd be happy to pay for such a poster.

 Regards,  Bob S.

  In case I'll be happy to find a good way to do that. The problem will be
the
  postage cost, also depending on the way you'll want me to mail you the
  poster.
  Being it 100x50cm wide, I'll have the choice between mailing it folded
many
  times inside a standard envelope or shipping it rolled up. I bet that
will
  cost a lot more.

  As Greg suggested, it's probably better I'll ship 100 (say) to some
PDML'er
  in N. America for distribution there. Rather than 100's of separate
posters
  being airmailed from Italy.

  So, anybody interested in it? Please give me an idea of the quantity I'll
  have to ship. Now my idea is to print 500 copies: 300 for AOHC members
and
  200
  more for others.

  Bye,

Well, if Pentax wants to go really retro a new commemorate version of the 
Asahiflex would probably make more sense, although the market for such a 
camera must be strictly limited. It would be very expensive. Better idea to 
release a camera meant to be sold.

Who knows if Pentax ever intended to make a matching camera for the Limited 
lenses? The existence of a Limited camera was based on common sense, but 
Pentax and common sense?
Anyway, photography day in Japan is 1. June and is of course a nice

The 50th anniversary will be celebrated with the release of 'Limited' 
lenses for the 67 and 645.  ;)

Nah, every lens for the 67 is a 'Limited' lens.  :)

Maybe they'll make a commemorative titanium 67 and shave a few pounds 
off of the weight?

Yes, it would be sad and quite frankly a bit strange as Pentax usually 
commemorate such events. They even celebrated the 20th anniversary of the 
LX with a black titanium version. The 60th Asahi anniversary with the 
original LX. Their 75th anniversary with the Limited edition Z-1 and a 
silver titanium LX. The year 2000 with a Limited finished LX. The 10 
million sold slr with a gold edition of the LX.
Therefore, I certainly think Pentax will commemorate  the 50th anniversary 
for the Asahiflex; the 50th anniversary for japanese slr production and 50 
years of Pentax slr production. This is quite an event. Lets hope they will 
make a new version of the LX.

. . . and not just a special edition LX (i.e., another

Pentax NO good to produce another collector's version of the LX),
but a true, state-of-the-art, rugged, pro or semi-pro body that

A new special edition of the LX is highly unlikely as the production of the 
LX has ceased and because certain electronic components for the LX are no 
longer available.
A worse case scenario, apart from the nothing whatsoever scenario, I guess 
is a Limited anniversary model of the MZ-S. However, if Pentax have 
anything up their sleeves, then now it's the time to release it.
How about the culmination of 50 years of production of film based slr's? 
Lets hope that the wish for making an LX with AF is acceptable for the 
marketing people as well; not only the engineers.

Re: Anybody interested in getting the Pentax poster?

2002-05-27 Thread Dario Bonazza 2

When I had to write down the list for the cameras to consider for the
poster, at last I decide to only stick mass-produced models it is likely you
could buy in photo stores at their respective era, keeping off special
versions (such as Motor Drive versions, celebrative models) and rarities
(demo cameras, lab and military versions, prototypes, and so on). I had to
take a decision and I took it that way.
I believe thate any different choice would have flooded me with such
comments as: since you considered the model X, why didn't you add the Y
too? or You forgot to add the sub-version X of the Y special version or
the like.
Generally speaking, the Motor Drive versions of regular camera models are
just motor Drive versions of regular cameras, already present in the poster.
The only exception is the K2DMD, which is different in other details, so I
added it to the list.

And now, a small contest: the first one who will email me the correct list
of cameras in the poster (names in the same sequence as they show up in the
poster), will get one poster for free. Please send contest entries to:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

You'll get the answer, and know the name of the winner, after the Pentax
Day, since now I'm too much busy in setting up the last details for the
event. Thanks for your patience.

Bye,

Dario Bonazza

 Beautiful poster.  I wonder if it's possible to add any of the Motor
 Driver versions (K2DMD, KX MOT, Spotmatic Moter Drive, etc.).  BTW, what
 is the very last camera in the bottom row?

2002-05-26 Thread Dario Bonazza 2

Hello,

I apologize for not replying to you earlier, since I'm still so busy in
setting up some details for the upcoming Pentax Day, to take place
next weekend in Florence.
See: http://digilander.iol.it/pentaxday/pday71e.htm

In that same page, you'll also see a preview of the Pentax 50 years
poster, just released.

AOHC will distribute it starting next June 2nd in Florence. AOHC members
will get a copy for free (paying only shipping). Extra copies for AOHC
members (and copies for PDML'ers) will cost you $2.00 each (plus postage),
while other people will pay $ 4.00 each copy.
Once I'll be back home from Pentax Day I'll arrange a proper way for
shipping a single lot of posters to USA, so that an American friend could
then relay ship the posters to anybody wanting them at US rates.

About AOHC membership, please note that I can hardly cash US checks over
here in Italy, not to speak of bank fees in case I'll find a way to get that
cash. Why don't consider a Paypal payment? It works well!
Please see: http://digilander.iol.it/aohc/memberse.htm

Hope to get in touch with you soon.

Bye,

Dario Bonazza

http://digilander.iol.it/aohc/

 I too would enjoy having such a poster, Dario. Rolled, not folded. You
would
 find it a lot less expensive to either have your printer pack and dropship
 the needed quantity to a US distributor, preferably a PDML member with
easy
 acces to the time and facility to repack and reship the poster within
North
 America.

 Alternatively, if your printer has any ties with a US of A or Canadian
Print
 shop, the file could be sent here and printed here. If the finances
balanced
 out, that is.

 If you'd send me your address, Dario, I would like to favor you (or the
 current treasurer) with a check for the renewal of my AOHC membership.

Anybody interested in getting the Pentax poster?

2002-05-03 Thread Dario Bonazza 2

Anybody interested in getting the 50 years Pentax poster
from outside Italy?
In case I'll be happy to find a good way to do that. The problem will be the
postage cost, also depending on the way you'll want me to mail you the
poster.
Being it 100x50cm wide, I'll have the choice between mailing it folded many
times inside a standard envelope or shipping it rolled up. I bet that will
cost a lot more.

As Greg suggested, it's probably better I'll ship 100 (say) to some PDML'er
in N. America for distribution there. Rather than 100's of separate posters
being airmailed from Italy.

So, anybody interested in it? Please give me an idea of the quantity I'll
have to ship. Now my idea is to print 500 copies: 300 for AOHC members and
200
more for others.

Dario,

I expect mailing within the US would cost $3.50 per poster,
add to that the cost of the mailing tube,  plus the cost of 
production on your side and mailing to the US.
What do you think this would run on a per poster basis.

If this all is not too expensive, we can find a way to work it out.
I'd be happy to pay for such a poster.
