Well, I can't think of anyone more famous than the Beatles with any camera,
but John Hedgecoe uses a Pentax on occasion and you can see him with his
Pentax LX on the cover of his "New Book of Photography". John Hedgecoe was a
former photographer for the magazine Queen, and has published many (perhaps
the most) books on photography. He is (or was once) the official
photographer of the British royal family. He was the photographer
commissioned to take the official portrait of Queen Elizabeth II for the
postage stamps in use in the British Isles and Australia.
This would make him up there near the top of famous photographers who own
and use Pentax on occasion.
If you are a Pentax person and you don't own his "New Book of Photography",
shame on you. Go right out and buy one before you buy your next lens - even
before you buy another roll of film or SD card..
Regards,
Bob...

I saw today the Beatles anthology on video and when they went to America
the
first time,
Paul says: We had a lot of fun taking photographs with our Pentax.
Later you see some photos of Ringo Starr and George Harrison with cameras.
Are there any more famous Pentax users than the Beatles?
