Hi Jason, Firstly welcome to the list (I'm sure I'll be one of many), seems like you've found about the best bar on the net to chat about all that is Pentax (you'll get over the Zenit eventually... at least you got a free work-out). There are plenty of film users here although these days you will see quite a bias towards digi-discussion, just don't let it put you off any. > My wife and I live on the Oregon coast, with no kids so I can dedicate > some funds to camera gear instead of to toys for the tots... ;) [Hey guys, we've got another one, LOL] You may hear the term enablement on occasion around there parts. This is a term which you may quite quickly associate with a peculiar type of addiction and a distinct lack of excess cash. You might be wise to employ some kind of third party cash management/purchasing plan early on :-) > Hope this post is not inappropriate or thatr the list is not meant > solely for "pros". OMG never never mention the word "pros" around here, you'll regret it. Oh and the answer is "no". > Have a great evening all... Will do, it's the start of the weekend very shortly in these parts. If you would like to cast your eyes over a crash course on PDML etiquette, it's a general consensus but is seems to hold things together: http://www.graywolfphoto.com/pentax/pdml-faq.html Cheers, Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://members.ozemail.com.au/~distudio/publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998
