Yes, Sylwek, your picture did not Draw The Viewer In. It exhibited a
Disconnect. It did not render adequately the Subtle Interplay Of Light And
Shadow. It did not Tell A Story. You obviously did not Have The Entire Scene

Shot with a Canon, eh?
Yup, people say that with 100-400 L IS - very good lens for nature as we can
see ;-)
PS: Unlike others, I happened to notice that you didn't shoot it, Sylwester

Bingo ;-) You have beer when we meet!

Body alone is more expensive. Must be an error. If I buy it at that
price, will they honor their price? I'll try... But too nice to be
true...
I think thay should honour it, anyway you can try - at worst they won't
sell it to you :-) I think this is imported (gray market) item. This
it's not listed on the BH site yet.
Adorama mentions nothing about Pentax USA warranty, so this must be
imported item - warranty honoured only by Adorama!

They are quite delicate, you have to handle them with care. Also they are
slower than fast CFs, and startup time of *istD will be 3-4 s. instead of 1
s.

Is anyone using the Lexar 1 gig CF card? I see BH offers it for $299.
You'd better buy Sandisk Ultra II or Extreme cards - they are simply faster

My experience with the *istD and the AF360 has been more of

I've just looked at some mentioned tests:
http://forum.digitalfotonetz.de/viewtopic.php?t=5123.jpg
and wow! This lens is much sharper at f4 and comparable in center + much
sharper in corners than FA* 24/2 at f8! And it is still slightly better than
Tokina 20-35/2.8 at 24mm/f4. Nice done Pentax! I

What do you think?
Are there websites with reviews?
