Alex - I do believe you're being deliberately obtuse. :-D Both guys have said they want Pentax products represented. It's quite obvious that the only reason they are not is because Pentax (for some...

OK, then. From Shawn (DPR): They're  (K52 and K52s) not featured in the store at the moment, but it's not because we don't want them there. If that (and Simon's comment) does not make it clear...

From Simon in this thread: "We're pushing hard to make sure the GS team gets Pentax listed. But I would say maybe you should be asking Pentax why they're not on..." Alex: how do you interpret this,...

My take on the "no Pentax gear in the virtual store" is that Pentax has not made any gear available. If so, does this make this DPR's fault?

Simon - thanks for taking the time to respond to the criticisms posted in this thread. Unfortunately, it appears you're talking to the proverbial brick wall. There is just no pleasing some in this...

Hi Mike: Taking the first shot as an example, the primary and secondary wing feathers, the ear patch, beak and undertail feathers all show a  purplish cast. Now, looking at photo #2, the...

# 2 is my pick - the colours are more natural than most of the others. For some reason I'm seeing a strong purplish tint in many that could be removed in PP. Definitely worth the effort. Nice...

Placed 12^th in the challenge. Taken this January, this shot shows my dog Maulee in full flight as she races across a snow-covered, ice-covered river.

:-) Hey, don't be so sensitive.  I wasn't looking for faults, but when I saw the color on the guy's teeth, I couldn't figure out if he had somehow colored them (just the bottom of the tops (?)) or...

When I look at the original size version, I see that his upper teeth have blue/purple bottoms? Was this color actually on his teeth or is it something to do with the camera/lens combo?

Are you saying companies pay tax annually on their inventory? :-O

His "tests" are about as credible as RiceHigh's.

Placed 7^th in the challenge. This is actaully just one squirrel. The two shots were taken a day apart.

Placed 12^th in the challenge.

Placed 23^rd in the challenge.

As previously stated -not on the chart.

As Alex has already pointed out, Pentax is not even on the chart. It is Olympus that apparently has passed Sony. With Olympus and Fuji seeming to be getting attention from buyers, the competition...

But, but, isn't it the other way around - 560mm on a FF equates to an 840mm field of view on an APSC camera?

Hi Eric: Looks like I was confused by the wording. I'm with you on the "equivalent" deal. Whenever I read that someone needs more "reach", so prefers not to use a full frame camera with the same...
