Support and Product of Adobe CS2 is the same in the retail and academic
versions. The only difference is the box, and even then I seem to
recall it is just a sticker that says Academic. I would bet the serial
numbers are on a list that let's Adobe know it is an academic version.

I thought the rule of thumb was the x-L teleconverter was recommended
for any long lens that could fit the added depth.
I use the 1.4x-L. I have never used (and do not own) a x-s series
teleconverter so I can't give you a first hand comparison.

I actually like it. Printed out on watercolor paper I bet it would look
spectacular, but not as a photograph per say. It makes the photo look
more like a painting and less like a photo.

We have the Optio 550. We were happy with it, but when our son entered the
picture it was just too long a lag between pushing the shutter release and
taking the picture. My wife picked up a Canon 30D this summer and absolutely
loves it. Her old SLR is a Canon A2 so it was a no brainer for
Google searching for the Pentax K10D brought me to this site.

While I won't be buying one of the first ones off the line, I should
have one by next summer (if not sooner. December is starting to sound
like a good month.)

I think we can safely say you have moved into the realm of collector. That
is a lot of Pentax gear. Reminds me of the poster I bought a couple of

I never felt the need to look at the ME-F. I think there is only one lens
that takes advantage of the early auto focus, and that lens is a bit on the
heavy side. While I like my ME-Super, when the light meter started acting
up I tried to get it fixed and then placed it on the shelf.
Does anyone have a PDF of the Pentax Flash AF280T manual that they can
Email me or that I can download?
Also, is there any advantage to using the new high powered alkaline
batteries as opposed to normal alkaline batteries in the flash unit?
Here is a simply question for a Friday. Do those new high drain alkaline
AA batteries provide any benefit over standard alkaline AA batteries? Do
they recharge a flash faster, do they last longer?

I can't help but wonder if this lens is worth what I paid For
The Tamron Adaptall 2 for the minolta should remove from the lens and you
can replace it with one for the Pentax K mount. I don't think it will pass
aperture information back to the camera.

The only thing I could think of as I was looking at it was that it was to
do the same function as the roller that is in that spot in newer LX
cameras. That way, as the motor drive is chugging along, it is keeping the
