Re: BH - no respect for Pentax

2012-11-29 Thread Igor Roshchin

Jim,

I discovered those prices for Pentax later, after the original e-mail on
this thread, - and sent a separate e-mail (actually, more than one)
to the list.
What's strange is that they didn't advertise Pentax prices under
Black Friday day list (and banner). And that's what I first was
referring to. They never placed any of the Pentax items on that list.

I also got IIs, - just unpacked it moments ago and set the battery to
charge.

Igor

 K-5 IIs is $1049, a $250 discount from list.  Other deals are available
 as well.
 
 I placed my order over the weekend.
 
 Regards, Jim

Gives one pause about the future when they discount the 50-135 that much. 
Perhaps clearing the way for the *new* FF camera lenses!  :)

it's worth refreshing one's memory about Pentax's recent price restructuring:
