Alan,
I appreciate your comments and insight from outside the USA.
My daughter-in-law is a special education teacher in the public schools.
This year she sees students who are 2 or 3 years behind in reading or math.
But they are the good stories with involved parents.
Before this, she taught 5+
Interesting, but I think I would rather see a closer shot, with more

Hi, everyone. We're selling our last few black Pentax Q kits (with 8.5mm
lens) for $349.99 CAN. They're cute little cameras that remind me of the
Auto 110 I used to own:
http://pentax.ca/en/digital_slr/Q/
The small size and sensor make them useful cameras for macro work, and also
a lot of fun
I wonder how the sigma stacks against the 55-300. My m50 1:4 is
really sharp. Almost as sharp as the A50 1.7. I've heard the the FA is
much weaker compared to the m/K 50 1.4s. I see that still holds true.
