RE: Pentax in Photo Mags
Hello, I must add that in this May issue of CdI it is the first time the big reseller 'CAMARA' has not mentionned any PENTAX item in its ad... The SIGMA SLR's have replaced the PENTAX ones in the ad, and I just hope when the MZ-S is released CAMARA will start again to advertize PENTAX.

Albano, I did open it and, of course, you are right twice: the mag is worthless and there is nothing new about MZ-S :) Matjaz > The May issue of Petersens magazine has the MZ S in cover, claiming an User's > Report or Test. > Since the magazine is pure shit, I didn't open it. > I'm pretty sure it will say nothing new about it, since the mag is just a > written infomercial. > Regards > > Albano > - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.

Re: Pentax in Photo Mags
Albano, Yes that part seemed suspicious to me too, but I just copied/translated from the magazine. I guess their interpretation doesn't hold water as I can't see the use of writing "AL" for aluminium on a lens you can pretty well see does not have the more common grey-black finish. OTOH, I thought I had often read _here_ that Pentax rarerly, if ever, publicized using Aspheric(-al) elements. cheers Fabrice > "Albano" == Albano Garcia <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: Albano> The new "trans-standard" Pentax SMC 28-105 mm f/3.2-4.5 AL IF exists (or: has Albano> been presented) in a 'Silver' version (or more exactly: brushed aluminium, Albano> hence the "AL" name).

The May issue of Petersens magazine has the MZ S in cover, claiming an User's Report or Test. Since the magazine is pure shit, I didn't open it. I'm pretty sure it will say nothing new about it, since the mag is just a written infomercial. Regards Albano - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.

Good month. And did you notice the double-page photo taken with a Pentax 67 in the first few pages of Outdoor Photographer? Very nice. BTW: I've concluded that O.P. can be educational if you look at the photos featured, but reading most of the articles is a waste of time. - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
