I agree a FF Pentax that uses K mount M series lens with out the green button. Also work with my studio strobe with remote light triggers. Dream on. I am still shooting Pentax 645nII, B&W Agfa aerial film in the desert under mid day sun developed with Pyrocatechin developers, taming the extreme subject brightness ratios that cause extreme clipping in digital sensors.

I want one, I just don't want one more than I want what $8500 + lenses could get me in terms of a couple of K3s and lenses. > > bill > > -- > 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. -- 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. -- 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.
