> I wish someone had warned me that reading this list can really pull one into buying more stuff. Unsubscribe. Do it now. Righ now. I used to be happy with my LX, 2 K-1000s a half dozen lenses, my 6x7 and a few lenses, and the 4x5 and a few lenses. Then, I decided to buy a computer, so as to learn a bit about digital photography, since that is where my industry is headed. One day, while surfing the web, I came across the Pentax USA website. Spotted a link saying Click here to join the Pentax Discuss Mailing list. Joined this mailing list. That was 4 years ago. Since then, I have nearly retired from active photography. Not withstanding that fact, I now own 3 LXs, a couple of ME-Supers, a Program Plus and a few other bodies. I have bought a couple of dozen more lenses for the 35mm, 3 more lenses for the 6x7, and a nice wide angle lens for the 4x5. A 6x7 bellows (SHEESH!!), and a couple of bellows for the 35mm system, a microscope adaptor which I will likely never use because I just don't find that stuff all that interesting, and a bunch of LX viewfinders, one of which I will likely never use. Two fisheye lenses (one is never enough) and 5 teleconverters, including two Pentax 2x-S. 2 of my camera bodies have never had a roll of film put into them by me, my 300mm f/4 for the 6x7 has not had a shot taken with it yet, and at least 3 of my 35mm camera lens purchases have not been mounted on a camera since being purchased, and one has not been on a camera at all, I just picked it up off a shelf, gave it a cursory inspection and bought it. This list is a very bad place. William Robb
