    oly and pentax?????? pfffftttttttt....

    Olympus market share 3.3%. Pentax market share 1.1%. Sony market share 9.5% up from 4.5 n '07.

    Pentax going down? I'd give odds of 4 to 1.....
    Olympus. Dought it but ill give odds of 20 to 1.

    Sony? Meh, they could pay the entire slr division out of their petty cash book. I'm not worried.

    Panasonic? Like sony, major electronic giant behind them so its unlikly.

    Get a sony. You now can poke fun at canikon for begin generic and overpriced.

    You can also poke fun at olympus for having a queer mount (four thirds?? Whoever thought that was a good idea)

    See? Best of both worlds. :-)

    Pentax could hardly catch up now, only if they were working on something that could beat 5D MkII. And I doubt that. Unfortunately, because I am so much used to their controls and handling. And lenses.

    The Pentax MZ 50, which is considered to be a starter camera, has taught me how to take photos.

    Samsung will probably never return to the variety of lenses that made Pentax so popular in the past and the bigger companies are bound to continue to gain ground.

    Any Pentax links would be gratefully received here, as many photographers who use Pentax also seem to write very well.

    Now I'm wondering why that might be so...

    Yes thanks Tele :D I turned off system restore and it has quietened down considerably. I hate Vista though. It is the one of biggest scams in history I reckon.

    I had a right laugh last night watching this. It's a pity they didn't spare me the hassle and tell me after the sensational season one. A time machine... WTF!

    What happended to the suspense the first series brought?

    After two episodes of Season 2 i gave up watching it and told my then girlfriend "it's really gonna go down hill now, they will end up being mutated or traveling in time or some ****".

    Swish!

    I love Family Guy, but it's repition of the "Brian's Book", "Chicken Fight" and the whole "how do you pronounce that" thing is really old. It's a shame as well, as MacFarlane is a great comic writer.

    Scrubs is another show i used to love, but the turn that JD has taken in the last season really put me off.
