Hi Fred, Well you may be right. If they aren't buying any big glass anymore, then they sure won't sell much. That is kind of a shame, although I don't own any of those faster 300/400/500/600's.
In fact, I was quite surprised to hear that you have been collecting them on ths sly. <g> How am I ever gonna catch up if you go off and buy that really expensive stuff! More seriously, all the praise that the A300/2.8 is getting has been enabling me. I just don't know how to sneak a 4 digit purchase price past the wife. <g> I've been wondering about an old 6x7 too or maybe an old 4x5 Speed Graphic for a really big negative. The issue seems to be darkroom work for larger format, and I don't want to go there. In fact, I'm resisting buying slide scanner. I have found that my Epson 870 (or is it 780) printer does a really good job if I get the settings right and use the right paper. I have been amazed by the results from a 2K by 3K or even 1K by 1.5K jpeg. Bob - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
