RE: Religion 8-) -------NOTE
Takehiko Ueda wote: "I drive a Mini, and it's more like religion, though" I know this religion. It's related to the one where you hit yourself until you bleed isn't it? Or maybe that one where you nail people to things? mike --- Mike just imagine - you (and me) into Mini! All what we'll do - thinking about better life :- If Pentax MZ-S will be $1700 it will be only religion for me too :-( Den - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.

RE: MZ-S Info Not Yet
I find this terribly funny and ironic. Here we have hundreds of members from wealthy, high tech societies. And one of our members in a remote outpost in Slovenia sees and handles the camera! --- Hmmm. This camera was shown on PhotoFair'2000 (St. Peterburg, Russia, 19 Oct 2000)... but f hotel's stuff - I goes to show after time when this camera goes back to Pentax Europe n.v. :-( Den - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.

RE: A lens that only fits on plastic lens mount
My guess is that under similar use, the metal lens mounts will last substantially longer than plastic ones. --- Sorry, what do you mean with longer? 300 years longer than 250?

RE: A lens that only fits on plastic lens mount
Well, if you just mount one cheap zoom lens onto it, the plastic mount may last 1,000 years. [...] If you keep changing lenses, the plastic may not hold up as well. And if you keep mounting lenses that cut grooves into it, the plastic mount may not hold up beyond a year or two. I'm not opposed to judicious use of plastics in cameras, but lens mount and other stress points aren't the place to do it. --- Hi again. It all depends on many conditions. Some kind of plastics very durable. Polycorbonate of course just for very cautious use with one zoom lens. But as former composite materials engineer I know many materials which can be MUCH better than metal in lens mount (and not only in mount - all camera's "skeleton" can be produced from composites and it can solve many problems - especially! for long time or hard condition use). But of course they all expensive :-) best wishes from cold (-23 degree below zero) Russia Den - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.

Dear Takehiko and other Japanese PDMLers. I know about this museum. But as well as majority others PDMLers I probably never can personally visit this museum.

RE: Any suggestion for ultra-wide angle lens
Hi! Years ago I bought Zenitar K 16/2,8 - It`s made in Russia and I am very happy with it. And it's cheap too - only 1100 EEK ( 1 $ = 10 EEK when I purchased it ). Cheers , Raivo --- Current Moscow price ~$80. Last year I heard some rumours about russian people who sell it in internet (~$150). Rumours was very bad - they catch buyer's money but not sent lens. Please be careful with such firms! I can't advise good way to buy it. But IMHO only help of your friends or workmates who goes to Russia will be safe :-( If you will use this way - please write to me and I'll help to this person where to find it. But I can't send it to anyone by post :-( Russian post office works very bad. We just shall lose money or lens. Den - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.

RE: Enough bodies. What about new Pentas 35mm Lenses
[...] A while back Pentax also announced that there would soon be a 24-90mm zoom. Now, that might be a must-have item (for me, at least), great for travel or just walking around if it is any good. But I have seen no further information, not even rumors, on this potentially very interesting lens. Anybody know anything? What aperture, variable or fixed aperture, close-focusing distance, etc. When? Bob --- Just waiting for PMA (Feb). Aperture was presented on photokina'2000: -http://www.mtu-net.ru/penta/archive/4/exhibition/photokina_ eng.htm (Ralf Engelman's photokina review) -http://digilander.iol.it/aohc/photokina2000_3e.htm (part of Dario Bonazza's photokina review) but no other detail AFAIK...

RE: Digtal is here. Film production to be stopped!
The worlds third largest film manufacturer, Agfa, will stop the production of film. Agfa will gradually fade out film production. The reason is that the 35mm and APS film market is shrinking while the sales of digital cameras is exploding in most markets. Will others follow? Pål --- ??? They just show a lot of new films on photokina'2000! Are shure about stoping? Den This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
