I guess its no secret that many Pentaxians have had some wind taken off their sails post Photokina 2012 (at least imo).
No new higher MP sensor; and most significantly no 135 format FF when the competition has launched new FF cameras.
What did we get?
A K5II and more significantly K5IIs.
I guess the question running through many's minds would be "Is this enough?"
I'm reminded of old days in school......
Like the first day of the new school year and the rich kid has brought his shinny new Star Wars Return of the Jedi - Luke Skywalker in cool black and green lightsaber, top it off with a few scout troopers and a AA-walker..... cool....
The envy of the class.
Me... well still stuck with a bag of bottle caps I managed to pick up from the local coffee shop bin...
er.... who wants to play bottle caps?? ... :embrass:
So with this in mind, I went off for a short trip to Singapore's 'favourite' vacation location .... SENTOSA.
We had some leave to clear before the year end and it would not take too much effort to go for a non driving person.
More importantly the kids loved the place too....
This thing still lingered on my mind...
Should I go FF? Should I just get a "Return of the Jedi - Emperor Palpatine", ATAT and Imperial Destroyer to one up the rich kid... Er.. I mean FF or MFD camera... he..he..
Here are some photos and thoughts during/after some self reflection from Sentosa..........

Pentax/FF/new cameras - between the rock and a far off place...
Note : As usual, this is not a 'solo singing session'.
Please... pls..... add in your shots and thoughts as well...
Appreciate it.
