They may have been spelled out (not as precisiely as I would have wished) but numerous other things were not. And yes I think the words "Photographer retains all rights or something like that should have been used". The whole thing was just sort of bungled from the Pentax side...
Shucks, they left out a phrase of legalese...... Perhaps they should have vetted it with the corporate lawyers, had an online contract written up and posted to their website with 128 bit encryption on the digital signature? And make sure you send the EXIF data, don't want some joker to send in an image taken with a Canon, do we? I suspect Marco is a sales rep in Toronto who is trying to dress up the show tables, and thought actual customer photos would have been a good way to sell the product on the merits of being able to take wonderful pictures with it. I doubt if it ever occurred to him that the lawyers should be invoked. William Robb
