I know. Leave me alone, it's too much money.

It's just a massive K-3.

You know you want one biggrin.png

He's probably already bought two. And now trying to fit Russian lenses to them.

I did just pick up a Helios 77K-4. This is the K-mount version of this 50/1.8 and is quite rare.

Cannot see the point of this massive 645Z thing. Pentax should have put the effort into sticking a 35mm equivalent sensor in the K-3 instead. Many people have been waiting for a full frame Pentax for many years now.

It look quite beefy, almost Hasselblad like.

The only Pentax I ever owned was an SF-7, couldn't afford the costs of film and processing with my virtually zero knowledge at the time.

Digital is a great thing when you compare what your shots would cost in film and processing.

A couple nice and short reviews....especially about the price & its

relativity to the camera vs the other MF players auch as P1 & Hassie.

If anybody wants to get into MF this is a great camera to buy....only $8500.

Second hand Hassies go for around 10K + just for a "basic" body.

And besides...Pentax/Ricoh make a great camera.

Sip satang from YT.

Sooner have a 35mm equivalent K-3 plus integrated grip with 10fps and a much better AF system and lenses with less LoCA and PF with SDM that works.

Could someone in admin please close this thread?

I have never owned a Pentax; but the lust metre is growing for this 645Z. That system chart didn't help.

But the price tag should dampen the lust just a wee bit!

I reckon £15k for a 645z system. But you can use legacy 67 lenses too and they are cheap and many are sharp.

That's pure filthy porn w00t.gif

Camera Porn at it's best brother! Proud to say I designed it myself and entered

it in the Nik Rumours forum contest. Sadly...the admins had just closed said

contest. Better luck with the D5 contest I was told & that's soon to happen I have

read...hah...Nikon! licklips.gif

I've got the GPS unit.

My old Pentax 645 and 67 never looked as good as this! I did love my LS though ...and my earlier SL, SP, ME, MX, 110 .... I don't miss film though.

It's alright. Rabbit's buying one. I'll just use his.

I am tempted, I'll admit this much. Using legacy 67 glass will bring the cost down.

He probably isn't, and if he does, you won't.
