Re: PESO:Greetings from Zurich
You could have also recalled that I visited Jostein of Norway ;-) twice. And given that Switzerland is not farther away than Norway is, I am perfectly capable of making it ;-). Anyway, I see your point ;-). All three limited lenses of mine will come with me/us though ;-).

Re: PESO:Greetings from Zurich
Glad to help. The A24/2.8 is a very good performer on the DSLRs. I had one for a year or so and did a lot of photography with it. With the K10D it will produce the field of view of a 35mm lens on your film SLR. I don't know anything about the Tamron SP17/3.5. But the DA18-55 lens is at least a good performer, so one way or another you'll enjoy the camera. The DA21 is a little expensive but is well worth it, when you can afford to go for it.

RE: PESO:Greetings from Zurich
Paul, thanks a lot. Next week I finally join the digital Pentax crew with a K10D! A DA wide lens will have to wait a bit, I hope I get some useful results with the Tamron SP 17mm 3.5 and the Pentax A24mm. greetings Markus -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, February 27, 2007 8:17 PM To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List Subject: Re: PESO:Greetings from Zurich Beautiful city, nice collage.

RE: PESO:Greetings from Zurich
Thanks Godfrey for looking at the PESO and commenting on the DA21 mm :-) I ordered the K10D last week with a second battery and the 18-55 kit lens, since the body alone is still not available here and I don't want to wait anymore. I hope that I get some useful results with the Tamron SP17mm 3.5 and the Pentax A 24 mm with the K10D, I really like the 24mm on film and can't spend any more on lenses in the next month. I have to upgrade computer and backup storage as well, gladly fast and big harddisk like the 400GB IDE Samsung are quite cheap nowadays here. Indeed, my homeland and town is beautiful but there are so many great places all over the world as well as the landscape PESO's here prove easily ;-) greetings Markus -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Godfrey DiGiorgi Sent: Tuesday, February 27, 2007 8:26 PM To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List Subject: Re: PESO:Greetings from Zurich On Feb 27, 2007, at 11:08 AM, Markus Maurer wrote: > So, finally I can order one next week for my panorama calendar > project :-) > Does anyone use the DA 21mm lens with it? > Would you recommend it?

Hi Dan I had a meeting with PDML member Colin Brendemuhl's son in Zurich in January which reminded me of our meeting as well :-) We went to lake Zurich and http://www.foerderverein.ch/content/schauhal.htm, into the old city part having a cup of first quality organic coffee and truffes made of premium Swiss chocolate and later crossing the park of the Swiss National Museum to the Longstreet visiting the flea market and more ... thanks for looking and commenting greetings Markus -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Daniel J.
