Do you want the long story? No? I don't blame you.
I was at the photo lab today (sold a coupla prints - woo hoo!), and whilst waiting for Robert to finish with another customer, I picked up a Canadian mag called Photo Life (or some such name).
First thing I notice is a full page ad for the Optio S, right near the front of the magazine. That's good, thinks I.
Then, one of those absolutely annoying advertising cards falls out of the magazine. I pick it up (because my mother taught me not to be a litter bug), and I notice it's a subscription card for the magazine. I turn it over, and it says in big letters: SUBSCRIBE AND YOU MAY WIN A PENTAX SLR.
Curiosity piqued, I read on, and it seems that they're giving away an MZ S and an FA 24-80 zoom, along with bags, tripod, strap, that sort of stuff. They tout it as Pentax' "pro level 35mm SLR".
So, kudos to the promo department of Pentax Canada. At least they're trying...
cheers, frank
