Three years ago they were spoken of everywhere including here strictly in the past tense now they are leading the way. At B&H its flagship is only $22,995.00 The perfect solution for kitty cat emails and uploads. I imagine it might also work on doggies too! I'd get some black tape and a white marker and write Pentax on it before I brought it into the city. Just in case one of the muggers reads dpreview. I'm looking forward to seeing it hanging around somebody's neck on the sidewalk. I'm bringing scissors. And sneakers. And a reversible Trenchcoat. Plus an entirely different set of ID and wallet. A hat with a blond mullet wig sewn into the bottom of it. And some iron on tattoo's. f 30 x 45 mm's and be there. Congrats on the S2 to you and the next guy too. And may the next guy be me or run slower than me. [Rabs] Mark William Rabiner
