And at $6500 US! This is inside the tantaive price spoken by Pentax for the MZ-D. Sounds like Pentax had a change of heart then, because the sensor is obviously available, and it can be done for the money that was rumoured. Thanks for nothing Pentax - you have now officially MISSED THE BOAT!!!

For slides, EPT or EPJ (do they still make these?), or if no tungsten then possibly Fuji Multispeed. For prints the Fuji Press 800 is admirable. I shot indoor sports on 400-1600asa, lens apertures generally 2.8 and wider. Kind regards Peter - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
