Well, works for me.. I'll write it, and I'd like everyone else to contribute and actually do some of the answers... That said, what ARE some of the common questions we see here? If not just here, also on the internet at large that people could be answered with just the FAQ? Why Pentax, and the Pentax strengths. Lens compabability from screw mount through 67. Best "beginner" body. What to look for in your new LX. Which is the best "consumer" zoom (ie, I've seen lots of talk on the various 2x-through-105/135 zooms), and which is the best "consumer" long zoom (ie 70-210/300, etc) General list ettiquete. General list info. Tricks with the bodies/lenses (ie, allowing matrix metering with non-A lenses on the ZX-50, changing the screens in the ZX series, etc). Russian Lenses. Injokes (enablement, brotherhood, weenie little negs, etc). Sources for good info, suggest links (Boz's, the Italian historical club, Luminous Landscape, etc). I know there's more. Tell me, I'll write what I've got, then ask for additional information, get your comments, then present it to Doug for if he wants to put it on PDML.net, send ou with new subscribes, etc.
