bob-c Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 <p>Justin, thanks for the link. It is most likely a venture I will never get to take but I would sure love it. It was a very enjoyable read. Thanks again.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpo3136b Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 <p>The lead photo and the photo of climbing down the waterfall were really good in there. Far superior to the typical canyon rim photo. I've never been out there, but if there's any way to get photos from inside that canyon, like down by the water as he did, I think that's a good idea just because it's apparently done less. That place is probably a treasure trove of passed-over nature.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleahy73 Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 <p>For those of you who did not make it to the workshop, that article is pretty much what Kerrick James covered, minus a few comments about some of his other outlets for his photography and the sales pitches for Pentax gear. At least, that's what I recall from the 11am workshop. It may have been different at the later ones. The opportunity to meet Kerrick and Ned Bunnell was worth the trip, though. <br> Sean</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miserere_mei Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 <p>Now I <em>really</em> wish I could've made it! Would've been nice to meet Kerrick and Ned. Maybe Sean and I could've cornered Ned and got him to spill some juicy information :-D</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sleahy73 Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 <p>Na, he was real quick on that "no comment" line (re: questions about FF, etc.), but he did mention that Pentax (Japan) is listening. Pleasant to talk to otherwise, though. I discussed with him some of the challenges of some of my recent project and he made some suggestions based on some of his experiences. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mountainvisions Posted May 10, 2010 Author Share Posted May 10, 2010 <p>Ahhh, the dream of full frame still grows strong in pentaxians...face it fellas, it's done! The 645D is FF, the K-7 is DA. That's it. And truthfully, not a single Canon/Nikon shooter would have paid a bit of attention to a Pentax FF camera, while the 645D has already generated rumblings of defection. Pentax did the right thing IF the 645D really does generate the migration that has been rumored.</p> <p>Also, unless you start seeing FA mount lenses popping up, I don't see any chance of FA coming to market within several years. It took them a long time to fill out the DA line, almost 4 years. To think the FA line will come around fast enough to satisfy buyers anytime before 2013 is just wishful thinking.</p> <p>If anything Pentax is showing that it has two systems with unique characteristics, and then we still have the mirrorless revolution upcoming for Pentax.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
