Yeah, probably, if you and others here were dealers and would commit to, and pay for, a large enough order to get them to change their corporate mind. Could we scrape together an order for a thousand of each focal length?
Actually, since you seem to have their attention, why not ask them how many we would have to buy for them to do it?

This may interest others on the list as well: I contacted the Japanese Head office concerning the issue, why the Limited Lenses FA 77/1.8 and FA 43/1.9 are not provided in black. They were very friendly and actually responded. It seems to be a purely marketing based decission. Maybe this decission can be influenced if sufficient interest is expressed? Best wishes, Knut From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: 43mm & 77mm in Black Colour Date: Fri, 31 Aug 2001 13:40:58 +0900 Dear Mr. Kampe, Thank you for your inquiry about Pentax lenses. As you indicated in your e-mail, we have two colors for those lenses. But we distribute only Silver model in Europe because of our marketing reason. We do not plan to introduce Black model in Europe unfortunately. Also we appreciate your inquiry directly to Japan head office. However, we, head office in Japan do not handle retail sales to overseas customers. Therefore we can not take care of your order here. Sorry for the inconvenience, but your understanding will be highly appreciated. Anyway we thank you very much for your special attention to Pentax product. Best regards, H. Onoda International Sales Dept. _________________________________________________________________ Downloaden Sie MSN Explorer kostenlos unter http://explorer.msn.de/intl.asp - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
