Re: Pentax Optio S advance orders
That's why the Pentax factory is in full speed. they are making 60,000 units per month, which is three times the no. for 430RS or 330GS. That's why today the share price of Pentax is rocket high: about 250 yen. It was only 150 yen a month ago Regards, Henry Chu 6/2/2003 From: Mike Johnston [EMAIL PROTECTED] FWIW, I just heard from my friend at Pentax that the Optio S is generating an impressive amount of advance orders.

A Pentax rep told me today that they've sold all they can get. They had just gotten in through the door... He swore that he had never heard about a new 67 and it didn't figure in their budgets... Pål

Re: Pentax Optio S advance orders
Hi Mike, Please answer my email! Alek Alek, I have answered your e-mail several times. I have nothing to add to the responses you've received on the list regarding the lenses you asked about. Sorry I can't help. --Mike
Re: Re: Pentax Optio S advance orders
Mike, Sorry:) Yes, it is truth that many of my questions to you have already been answered. So the only way is to mount my Tamron (when I get adaptall) and shoot and shoot and then assess the quality. On the basis of many opinions and tests it should be great macro lens I hope. and 90mm is also very nice for portraits so nothing to add, just shoot! recently I thought to leave Pentax and buy Contax Aria+some primes but probably it is better to stick to Pentax and hope that new solutions will appear. And it is open system. I take mostly slides that is why I ask about quality of the lens so often. Cheers, Alek PS Have you ever used K lenses?

Re: Re: Pentax Optio S advance orders
hi I just wanted to say that I take slides where it is easy to see if the lens is good or not. Of course if you enlarge you prints very much you also see it. I just do not enlarge prints more than 20x30cm BTW Have you scanned slide and print?any comments.. IS it better than from film, i.e. for instance 30x40cm is better to obtain from slide or from film?

Re: Pentax Optio S advance orders
PS Have you ever used K lenses? Has Mike ever used k-mount lenses? O, I'd say so! g But, I hate to speak FOR someone...it's just possible he never HAS! I've used a few. g Actually, to be perfectly honest, there are several lens lines that I'm more familiar with than I am with Pentax...namely Olympus, Zeiss Contax, and Leica. All things considered I also probably have more experience with both Nikon and Canon than Pentax. And most of my personal expertise is in the area of 28mm to about 100mm lenses, as those are what I use. This is fairly typical for lens testers...for instance, Bob Shell knows short teles best, since those are what he uses, and George Lepp knows a great deal about long teles. I know virtually nothing about long teles. I had one 180mm lens once, but I couldn't get far enough away from _anything_ to take a decent picture with that thing...not even the moon. gg I also know a fair amount about enlarger lenses. --Mike
