a) Pentax *ist-D -- which means I can use all my old lenses on it (some more easily than others; I lose some useful metering info with pre-A lenses because Pentax left out the aperture simulator lever on this body). I used a Super-Takumar that's about as old as I am, on a screwmount bellows attached to an M43-K adaptor, to shoot the 2mm buds that will eventually become grapes (http://dglenn.livejournal.com/1138797.html). (Of course, none of my wides are digital-sensor superwides, but I reach teles more often than wides anyhow, so I can live with that for a while I think.) Now if I manage to find an FA 50mm, that'd be nifty (none of my primes are autofocus).

b) I would very much like to go to Baitcon. I'll change that to "planning to go" once I've ascertained that I can actually get there.
