Perhaps, Nick, you're the exception that proves the rule.  Pros who use 35mm -
PJ's or otherwise - seem to overwhelmingly use C**** or N****.

Of course I'm basing my conclusion on personal observation.  Whenever I see
someone who seems to be a "pro", whether on TV or in person, I try to see what
he's shooting with - I'm sure everyone else on this list does so as well.

Since you're in the business, you must hang around lots of other press
photographers, both socially and professionally.  How many others use Pentax?
What, in your observation, do most press photographers that you have contact
with use?

I'm not trying to "trap" you, or in any way take issue with what you said (mere
text doesn't do a good job of conveying intonation and other such nuances).  I'm
really just curious to hear what your thoughts and observations are.

regards,
frank
