'Allo Jan, It was not a blanket statement, I always assume since you and others post here you must have and use Pentax gear. I was aware that Pentax does not make printers, scanners, (or, not because of your message, a DSLR) Perhaps I wrote poorly, it was really directed to those that use digital P&S and DSLR and spend the cash on the darkroom stuff. I wondered how many of those, were actually using a Pentax digital camera.
Hope that clears it up!
