Nope, I've never had a metal shaving appear in a lens, although I've
had dust and other debris in lenses. I would disassemble that lens
and remove the sliver. If it's a manual focus 50, you might as well
try to do it yourself, as the price

Let's hope the Pentax 645D is a trifle less expensive that that. I
expect it will be, but more than around $4000 and it's well out of my
league, for the present anyway.
If it ever surfaces (unlikely now IMO) my guess is that it would be

A studio stand like that would be a luxury for me at this point, but

I can't imagine why the 645D wouldn't surface. It's in the pipeline,

Indeed you're right. I've downloaded ACR 3.6 as was suggested but no
improvement has come from it. Now if someone would build an ACR profile
for K10D ;-)...
I do, but for ACR2.4. I know there is at least one other PDMLer that
has profiles

I don't know what the international numbers are, but locally Pentax

Exactly. I never met a camera I couldn't get used to. The grip on a
Speed Graphic sucks unless you have the flash attached:-).
I found the bare P67 easier to grip than the K10D. It's not a case of
just getting used to it, the K10D grip

If I'm there, I'm very keen.

I have an urge to say that I don't feel that my smoking habits are the real
