Shel et al, I have to ask what is with you and several others, that when someone on the list has a complaint or a negative comment regarding Pentax, that you now feel compelled to basically invite them to stop using Pentax, and by extension this mailing list?
That certainly comes across us 1) as rude, 2) as simplistic, and 3) do you really honestly expect that a person cannot both like a product line and have a few complaints about it at the same time?
