Mattias Klum has been a Pentax photographer since the age of 17 when he knocked on the door to Pentax Scandinavia HQ in Uppsala and asked for help. Pentax lend him expensive telephotos and in return he was an official representative for Pentax Scandinavia at trade shows, messes etc. Pentax Scandinavia has used many famous Klum photograhps in their adverts. All his shots for the Borneo project was done with Pentax 35mm (LX and Z-1p) and medium format equipment. Recently, he changed to Nikon, and he has appeared in many Nikon adverts in swedish magazines. To me it seemsl like Nikon simply made a better offer to him than Pentax Scandinavia could, and this was the reason for the change. If Mattias wife uses his remaining Pentax 35mm outfit but with 645 lenses, this could be because the telephoto lenses was borrowed from Pentax Scand. and that they no longer are able to borrow the lenses any more - due to the deal with Nikon.
