No friend, just a conversation that I couldn't help but overhear whilst in the shop and the sales person in this case makes money whatever the sale as they were the owner. They are willing to give advice and light on technical knowledge but they are pleasant to deal with and the prices are good. They are enthusiasts but really it's just a business in the end, the days of truly knowledgeable camera shop staff are numbered. -- Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~distudio//publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998 -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
