On 3/4/13, Mark Roberts, discombobulated, unleashed: >I just received an email from Don Nelson, the founder of the NPW, that >he plans on attending - probably for the final time - this year.

Don is a now-retired former Pentax rep >who has shown kindness far above and beyond the call of duty to many >of us on The List over the years. He was instrumental in getting the >List turned over to Doug Brewer when Pentax decided to farm it out. He >was the guy who was able to get a pre-production sample of the ist-D, >Pentax's first DSLR, into the hands of Doug and myself and a few >others before anyone else outside a couple of review sites. > >He's a good friend to a lot of us.
Back in 2009 there was a presentation ceremony in the restaurant at GFM which I filmed. In case there's anyone who hasn't seen it, or indeed if you'd like to see it again, it's still here: <https://vimeo.com/user2607591/review/8226245/7eba7a9a86> Haven't watched that for a while. It reminds me of old movie reel footage from the 70s! Apologies for the quality, I need to clean up the sound and re-encode it :-/ Bless you Don. -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ Broadcast, Corporate, || (O) | Web Video Producion ---------- <www.seeingeye.tv> _____________________________ -- 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.
