[Stanley Halpin]

Thanks for the link Paul. That was a good read. I did try to click through his 
17 images, after first 4-5  the next click caused a system restart on my Mac. 
But I saw enough to appreciate his work.

Re: pentax sighting....

[Godfrey DiGiorgi]

Very nice! 

You remind me of a Pentax Sighting I had in Summer 2018, while I was visiting 
the Greenwich Observatory in London on my "big trip 2018". I can't recall 
whether I posted this photo before… 

  https://flic.kr/p/2hcZeM4

She was a young Vietnamese woman who happened into the Camera Obscura while I 
was in there. We were talking about the observatory things we'd seen. Her 
husband was waiting outside as we exited and I used her camera to make a 
portrait of the two of them for her. Then I asked if I could snap her picture 
for the PDML, and she was gracious enough to let me. 

Very sweet and attractive young woman, her husband also a very attractive young 
man, both very nice to chat with for the few moments we had. I forget their 
names, sadly, and can't find where I wrote them down. I seem to recall they 
were traveling on holiday from Sydney, Australia, where they live now. Their 
English was pretty good; lucky because my Vietnamese is nonexistent… :-)

“Bond surveyed his weapons. They were only his hands and feet, his Gillette 
razor and his wrist-watch, a heavy Rolex Oyster Perpetual on an expanding metal 
bracelet. Used properly, these could be turned into most effective 
knuckledusters.”

I'm fairly sure that in the early films, up to mid Roger Moore, he wears a 
Rolex but not the Oyster.  My main (indeed only) claim to fame, however, is 
that I have never seen a Bond film in its entirety.

Breitlings were what I lusted after, too.  But back when I was an impoverished
student I bought a significantly cheaper brand of chronograph-like watch.
It was handy for timing laps at the (motorsports) track.  Of course it was
replaced a decade or two later by a push-button electronic stopwatch that
could do far more different functions (including converting lap time to MPH)
and which cost maybe $20.

OOPS...this was supposed to go to the list...

I still occasionally wear my Omega Speedmaster Professional - the 
Moonwatch -  that I bought in the mid-1970s when I was flying charter.  
I figured if it was good enough for NASA it was good enough for me.  
Mostly, though, now I wear a Fitbit smart watch because: a) it lets me 
monitor my exercise and b) my health insurance company gives me a new 
one every two years.

Re: Pentax sighting

[Daniel J. Matyola]

I don't understand why people are so enamored of Rolex, especially in the
US.  In Switzerland, I noted that the ads and stores were featuring and
promoting other quality Swiss timepieces.  I have always lusted after
Breitlings.  Back in the 1960s, the Navitimer was THE watch for aviators.
I have a mechanical one from that era in my collection,and it still woks
fine,although I had to replace the crystal and the replacement is not up to
the old standards.
May dive watch is a TAG, currently in for cleaning and rehab.

Re: Pentax sighting - ancient history

[John]

Sorry. Blind in one eye and can't see out of the other.

I am somewhat familiar with Ian Wright's work from my teen years when I was in a 
rock 'n roll band and we all devoured anything we could find about the Beatles & 
the rest of the British Invasion, although callow youth that I was, I didn't 
learn his name until much later.


All the teenage girls were screaming for the Beatles, so all of us teenage boys 
wanted to *BE* the Beatles so the teenage girls would scream for us.

I think the "pirated" image on Pentax Forums is Paul rather than Ringo.

IIRC, all four of them had Pentax cameras during their first American Tour, and 
I'm pretty sure they used during the "Ringo's Theme (This Boy)" segment of /Hard 
Day's Night/ was a Pentax [although not a functional one].

Fair Use, Perhaps?

It certainly is improper, unethical and illegal to download copyrighted
images to sell, to use for commercial purposes, or to pass off as your
own.  Is it, however, improper to do so, with credit to the copyright
owner, for critical or educational purposes, or to introduce someone to the
work of that photographer, or to illustrate a point about photography?

That description sounds familiar - do you know if those images or the composite 
photograph have been published? If so, I may have it, or I may be recalling a 
scene from "A Hard Day's Night" or "Help." When I get a chance I will look 
through my extensive collection of books about My Favorite Band, and if need be 
I can look at the DVDs of the films.

There's an article with an accompanying video from a guy who's building a DIY

But the real treat comes at the end of his video (14:05) when he gives us a look

sitting on the counter next to the roll of processed negatives.

When Hoya bought Pentax, it was for the medical imaging division. When they
sold the photographic side to Ricoh, they kept medical imaging, and
apparently the rights to the brand name.
Ricoh picked up the photographic side for something like 125 million USD.

I remember joking at the time that the PDML collectively could probably
have raised the capital to make the purchase, probably Stenquist could have
done it himself by putting a second mortgage on his castle.

Pentax Sighting - The Price is Right

[Mark C]

Flipped on the TV a little while ago and the Price is Right came up just 
as Drew Carey announced a pair of digital cameras - one mirrorless and 
one DSLR. The camera panned to a burgundy Q-S1 and a K70 (I think). 
Ricoh marketing?


The 'full retail price" was ~$1200 for the two.

Re: Pentax sighting in product photos

[Zos Xavius]

I guess you get what you pay for. The fact that the L-plate is not
from a single piece of metal gives me a lot of pause. It also lacks
the precision to be screwed together square which says a lot about the
quality of workmanship.

Based on the photo, I guess that they said just slap any old thing on 
there doesn't matter what.  They couldn't even be bothered to take the 
aging protective film off the LCD or make sure the rubber eyepiece was 
mounted straight.

Re: Possible Pentax sighting

[John Sessoms]

That's good, but it's probably an 'M' lens rather than an 'A' lens.

I watched the whole episode hoping maybe I'd see someone with a camera
taking photos of artifacts "in situ" - I thought archeologists were
supposed to do that - but I didn't see one.

Someone posted it before. I remember a discussion on whether the camera
was a Spotmatic or not.


It isn't a Spotmatic. The black line on the pentaprism identifies it
as K-series, either a KM or a K1000.

The KX has a distinctive little window on the pentaprism, which this
one doesn't, and the K2 has that knurled exposure factor ring around
the lens mount, which this one doesn't seem to have.

camera model, but I do remember the video & the discussion that came
with it.

Pentax Sighting

[Steve Cottrell]

Can't remember if I posted this before or not. Pentax sighting in this
lovely video made to mark 67 years of Land Rover production. Asahi
Pentax content, if fleetingly!

Re: Pentax sighting

I just saw a screen grab.  It looks maybe like an MX.  I love that
Pentax body.  I have a black one still in good condition.

Pentax sighting

[Gonz]

We watched a couple of episodes of "Stranger Things" on Netflix.  In
the second episode, one of the characters is taking lots of pics with
an older Pentax.  Looks like an ME or ME-super.  I didn't pay close
enough attention.

Ringo's a pretty decent photographer. He has a book out at the moment:

There's a Pentax in this picture too, but you have to look carefully.

Certainly looks like it.  Of course it could be a Spotmatic 500 or 1000
(without the self timer) but McCartney would have been far too cool to
have a lower spec version.

We don't have cable or broadcast TV (now that it's gone digital our rabbit ears 
are gone). I'll take your word for it.

Betty White is still working? That's amazing.
