Shel, Considering this is about the only concern I've had with the K10D launch, I'm really wondering where the hell you're coming from. I've been relentlessly positive about the entire thing, and my response to Godfrey was pointing out a potential problem that he had dismissed as 'never going to happen', not even saying that the problem would happen, just that it had before in a similar situation.
Stop reading stuff in my posts that I'm not saying. I've damned well not been angsting about the camera. In fact I've posted at least once that Pentax has essentially got every feature I want to have in the K10D. -Adam Shel Belinkoff wrote: > Well, it seems that you're a "glass is half empty" kind of guy, and I'm a > "glass is half full" sort.
