Since my investment now is in Pentax bodies and lenses, and I'm extremely satisfied with what I can do with them, what Sony does with their Alpha line is of little immediate interest.
I could really really use a DA28/2 Limited ... that's the one lens I don't have that would net me the most gains. And if I'm going to continue shooting much with the 645, I need to upgrade my scanner to a V700 or dedicated film scanner to get the most out of it. Once the other cameras and bodies are sold, a second K10D body will be needed. I have pretty much everything I want in lenses already, although I am awaiting the DA35, DA55, have my eye on the DA70, and occasionally think about the DA*60-250 ... And then there's the Pentax 645D. LOL! It never ends. "More pictures, less equipment." A new mantra for 2007. :-) Godfrey On Jan 1, 2007, at 9:07 AM, Paul Stenquist wrote: > Not me.
