Yeah, anyone remember this? I suppose this was the
real Pål too :)

From: Pål_Jensen [EMAIL PROTECTED]  

One of my inside contacts just gave me a lot of
prototypes that I have
never seen before!  So now I have a 20/1.4, 35/1.4 and
a working
24-70/2.8.  Pentax experimented with this AL ED IF
lens but shelved it 
in
favour of the less-expensive 24-90, but it's a
beauty  Except the
plastic window fell off and it's all dirty inside and
I think it 
doesn't
focus at infinity.  Oh well.  I gave my friend a
couple of Vivitar 
Series
1 50/1.2's in trade, since I have no use for the 6 I
picked up at a 
garage
sale for 50 cents.  Has anyone else heard about the
new 16-32mm 
f2.6-3.3
Limited Zoom?  Sure looks like a beauty.

  Hey, at least when I did it I used my real address
 so people knew it was a
  joke.

That's too bad, Collin.  Perhaps next time you'll learn to lock your
car, or at least keep your gear out of sight.

Goodbye Pentax

2001-04-01 Thread William Robb


Effective immediately I'm switching all of my equipment to Nikon brand.
I used to have an F2 that was a beautiful camera, and I realized lately
that there's no way my Pentaxes can meet that standard.  I'm going to miss
giving up those Limited lenses, but Nikon's new Fun Lenses look too
enticing to resist.  Imagine getting a fisheye for that little money.
Har!  I'll probably still keep one of my broken Pentaxes around just to
remind me of what an awful camera it was.  If you shoot Pentax these days,
then the best of luck to ye!  Did I ever tell you about the time I got
those 40/2.8's for $10?  Almost as good as my $40 Nikon F2 that I found
yesterday.  Har again!
