Newer P&S's have really bad AF speed.

I had the pleasant surprise of having the weekend off.
This afternoon I was at an event in SF called Lindy in the Park and noticed
a fellow with a K20 around his neck. I wandered over and observed that if
had a K-5, he wouldn't need to use his cell phone to video the dancers.
A while later,
It looked a great deal like either of these guys,

but it looked like it nicely covered the whole face of the mount area,
so it may have been the larger diameter 2.5.

Love it, Bruce.
The Super Takumar was probably a 135mm f2.5.
I don't think a f2.8 was made in that focal length.
The f3.5 is much narrower (49mm filter size).

this aft to catch some of Canada's jazz A-listers slumming it. Barry
Elmes, Artie Roth, Kelly Jefferson, and Lorne Lofsky putting their
stamp on standards -- it gets no better than this.
But what really took me by surprise was see
I went to a concert at a small club on Monday evening. John
Vanderslice and "Tallest Man on Earth".
I only saw two other DSLRs in there besides mine - both were K200Ds!
The one woman who was standing right next to me was shooting with the
K200D and an old f1.7/50mm-A lens. Towards the end
Taking pictures of steam locomotive 4449 in Portland, Oregon, I saw a man
using his 6 X 7 Pentax and a woman using her Pentax DS dslr.

I noticed a billboard just outside of Perth (Ontario) when I was
driving by last weekend. Picture shows a hand picking up a DS, and
some comments about reasons to buy Pentax. I think it was the same as
in the full page add in this month's Photo Life. (I don't have it
here at work, or I'd give more
It's probably the same one I've seen round here. Sort
of odd-looking 50s retro look. (That's how I see it
anyway :-) ). A couple of times I've meant to stop and
take a picture of it. There's a billboard on the road
to the airport. Happened to be going there ths morning
and noticed it. Meant to stop
The word Pentax was sighted, anyway...
I'm crossing the Don Valley Parkway, one of Toronto's busiest and most
congested controlled access highways, and in a ~very~ prominent spot
(atop the old Lever factory between Queen and Richmond, for any
locals) there's a huge Pentax billboard ad. Every one
I'm quite new to all this photography... we don't have Pentax representatives in
Colombia, but I bought my Spotmatic to a "professional" and he only uses Pentax... my
first book, by John Hedgecoe, has a Pentax in the cover and only Pentax in the inner
pictures... I have two teachers, one usin
On Thursday night, I went to the annual banquet of the Victoria Camera Club, and as it
happened, the two other photographers at my table were both PZ-1 users. I had my MZ-S
along to take pictures of a couple of speakers, and they were pleased to see it, with
one chap commenting on his high opi
great excitement. It's almost
as if we're using a "cult" or (as you said) underground product or something!
I guess it's up to us to keep the brand alive, as Pentax sometimes seems to be less
than willing to do so...
