Bob: I've been meaning to go to Central Camera. I haven't been there in years. And I think I've heard of PJ's. Didn't they have a Pentax Day a few months ago? I ought to trek out there one lazy Saturday. And how fun you were "the 1st in the neighborhood." When I was talking to the Calumet manager at Cherry & Division, I was inquiring about equipment rental. I asked why they didn't offer any Pentax equipment for rental, and got the obvious answer. FYI, Helix does rent Pentax, but only the 6x7 stuff--shoot, was it 6x7 or the 645. D*mn, can't remember now. I'd like to try a larger format; I think I'd very much like it. Have you been to the Oak Brook shop? Cheers, Christine
