Trekked down to The Pilot Tavern in Toronto's trendy Yorkville area this aft to catch some of Canada's jazz A-listers slumming it. Barry Elmes, Artie Roth, Kelly Jefferson, and Lorne Lofsky putting their stamp on standards -- it gets no better than this.
But what really took me by surprise was seeing a guy near me pull out a K-01 with what I'm pretty sure was a Super-Takumar 135/2.8 on it. I'd never even seen a K-01 in real life before let alone in a place usually disfigured by Canonistas and Nikonites. I had only just got over the shock of that when another guy arrived and produced a K-5 with a DA*55/1.4 on it. WTF? Was I dreaming? The only other cameras in sight were the usual iPhone wavers. If I had brought my kit we might have attained some sort of strange critical mass and caused temporal havoc, so it's just as well I'd only come for the music. -- -bmw -- 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.
