Re: K5 arrived

I have a K7 and I also had an MZ-S, which I dearly loved. Build quality is about the same but the ergonomics are much better on the K7. The two wheels just make it that much easier to operate. On Wed, Feb 2, 2011 at 1:31 PM, Ken Waller wrote: > Jim > Just wondering how you'd compare it to the M

Got from my brother in Wisconsin Super Multi Coated Takumar 35/3.5 with caps and case. Cherry. Tomioka Tominon 21/3.5. Also cherry. Both for $100. Not cheap but very reasonable. I am happy. At least when it comes to hardware. Sincerely, Collin Brendemuehl http://kerygmainstitute.org "

Re: Big Chicago Blizzard

About 100 miles north northwest of Paul and Ken, the sun is shining, a mild breeze blowing, about 27°F. I just came in from shoveling a path to the bird feeders - looks like we had 8-9", drifts up to 24" or so in a few spots. A decent snow storm but I don't think the serious blizzard ever got he

Re: K5

Short answer no. Long answer. I've read somewhere, (wish I'd saved the link), the Pentax is working on it, probably in concert with the 645D. Well, that last part about the 645D is my conjecture. On 2/2/2011 1:31 PM, Robert Blakely wrote: Howdy guys! Currently I mostly use my K20D via rem

Re: PESO -- Snow got your goat?

From: "P. J. Alling" Yes, it's a 6x6 articulated vehicle. Semi amphibious. A friend of mine managed to sink one in the middle of a river in Germany in the '80's. It would be fun but being a military vehicle, it's not exactly a fuel sipper. I was officially licensed by the Army to operate one.
