I've always liked the black spotty but no luck getting one and I have a chrome one already. Oh well... can't have every single model. I'd feel bad if they are lying around for too long - unused. Just me though. :)
 

I hope nobody screw me for this photo:bsmilie:, it's my workhorse with the ultimate brassing.

LOL, your k1000 and my spotty have exactly the same construction except for the mount.
Thanks Ivan.:D

precisely why i wld prefer a spotmatic. I have 2 m42 lenses sitting around~ a 35mm 2.8 and a 135mm 2.8.

I think i should use C41 film more, this lucky 100 im using is kinda "weak" lol, and amplified by my WEAKER skills in developing.

Your Spotty looks spanky clean! A very careful owner!:thumbsup:

hmm, im not familiar with b&w yet, i prefer using colours to represent the real world. That said, i think you must experience the characteristic of lucky 100 or whatever to amplify its power :bsmilie: Go out and shoot! I'm really underutilising my spotty lately:cry:

The camera that start it all for me.
Think it was 2000, had only started working not long ago. There just wasn't a DSLR that cost an arm and leg, and it happened that Pentax offered a lot more for the price. (Well maybe Minolta as well, always very well featured bodies).

That's so cool, welcome to the club! SO when are you gonna ditch the 50D for the K-7 ;)
i mean....having the same system as your gf would greatly enhance your argument for future lens purchases :bsmilie:
 

I don't know leh. The offers are too low. Want to change also difficult unless I'm prepared to lose a lot. Sigh.

Hi bro,

Congratulations on the purchase of the Pentax (although it's for your gf)!

By the way, from the picture you posted, it seems like you went for the dual lens package with the white K-x..I checked and was told that the dual lens kit is only available for the black K-x...white coloured ones do not have this option...

Can check with you the price for the whole set and where I can get the white K-x with dual lens option?

Thanks a million!

:D

If i not wrong, he got the white single-lens kit, and then the shop substitute in the 55-200mm. It's not the DA-L(silver band) telephoto kit, but rather the mainstream DA telephoto(green band)

Hey bro thanks for your reply!

That means to say his 50-200mm is not the same as the one that comes together with the original dual lens that is available on the black K-x, is that right?

By the way, if possible, can point out the main difference between the 2 lens? Sorry ah I super newbie lah...

Thanks in advance!

The DA 50-200mm costs $348 on its own. But Manly did a special for a few of us. So we only have to top up a bit more from the dual lens kit of $899. But I bought the last 50-200mm that he had. So I don't know if he still have stocks or not.

You need to call Mr Quek at Manly to check.

This special set is only available at Manly, not SLR revo, not MS Color, not anywhere else.
 

348? think it costs more than the WR on special price, need to show a k-7 for purchasing though.

Hey bro!

Thanks for the info!

I called to check with Mr. Quek already..he says he ran out of 50-200mm for the DA ones but he can offer me the WR ones...

Slightly more expensive than the price you paid.

But the thing is I dun really know what does the WR do haha...

But thanks again for your reply!

:thumbsup:
 

WR is good, if it is not much more, you should take it.
