Re: Cosmicar
Pentax is using the Cosmicar brand name for their CCTV lenses. They come I think in "C" mount. A rather specialized line. I don't know if they at one time used the name on consumer lenses or not, but certainly not currently.

Re: Cosmicar
Hi, Wendy, I could be wrong, but are Cosmicar lenses mostly for video, especially surveillance type cameras? They are made by Pentax, that much I know. And I have seen a few on eBay that are for still cameras, but they seem quite rare. regards, frank wendy beard wrote: > Just idly surfing e-bay, when I came across a listing for a 80-200 zoom of > the make "Cosmicar" > The seller say that this is a Pentax made lens. > Is this true?

It is titled Cosmcar/Pentax and the implication is that they are Pentax manufactured and Cosmicar badged. Seems like "Cosmicar" would be a name better applied to an automobile. Toyota could drop the Prius name and call it a "Cosmicar". Regards, Ed M. - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
