We may have different definitions of "running". I ended up only covering about 2.5 miles in over an hour. Even at my best, I barely beat a 12 minute mile (8 minute click). But I specifically chose the K-x and DA40 rather than the K-5 and 16-50, though I was wishing for faster glass and wishing that the 31 weren't so large. I barely noticed it's weight in my fannypack, though even without the camera the fannypack flopped around a lot more than I like, I need to see if one of my others works better. I ended up just carrying the K-x in my hands. -- Larry Colen [email protected] sent from i4est -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
