Pentax woes

Journal Entry: Fri Sep 25, 2009, 5:46 AM
Don't get me wrong, I love my Pentax K20D!! BUT I, while shooting the other day I noticed a vertical line (in landscape orientation). I have posted examples in my scrapbook. I've sent it in to Pentax Service and await word.

I also purchased DA* 50-135mm. I will say I am very happy with the lens, though it is much bigger than I expected. Still this is currently my only weather sealed lens.

On the personal side of things, the wife and I continue our plan to move to Cameroon. We don't yet have a firm date, but are looking at the week of Nov 29.

Yes, finally! I ordered my second lens: Pentax FA 50mm 1.4. The price was right. Here is the first image:

The wife and I are in Cameroon. After a wonderful day in Paris we arrived in Douala Cameroon and are now in Buea.

Today we went to Limbe,on the coast: botanical gardens, black sand beaches, etc. We'll be in Buea a few more days before heading further south.

Look for images first week of May.

Well, it looks like I'll be in Paris April 16 and then touring in Cameroon for almost two weeks. My wife is going to Chad for three weeks before that. I'm sending along our little point and shoot for her.

This week marks the 1 year birthday of my Pentax. I'll have to get birthday shot!

Best to all

Catching up

My goodness, it has been way too long since my last being in here to catch up. I have 442 deviations to view and 108 messages! Well, I still have some writing to do, so it may take me a little longer.

We survived our -19 degree (F) day, Jordan didn't much like that as she is good to zero degrees. But we have a good foot or more of snow and she's been having fun playing now that we've warmed up.

I have a few shots waiting to upload. They will have to wait until my next paper is written.

Cheers!!
