dutik Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 'cause I am such a nice guy , and SWMBO came to the opinion that I am taking a real lot of pictures (modelling and military museums related) my Xmas present was this beautiful toy: Pentax K-70 with 18-50mm zoom. Well, I had a reflex camera with Pentax bajonet back in the days when taking photos was related to negative film, so I own still some lenses with Pentax bajonet, even one ready for AF cameras. So Pentax was the choice. Special feature: The K-70 is dust- and wheaterproof. The right tool to stroll around open air displays collecting photos for your next modelling project Regards - dutik Rick Griewski, BloorwestSiR, Daniel460 and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thierry laurent Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 I also got a very nice Christmas present: a book I was looking after for ages: The blue-nosed bastards of Bodney. I finally concluded it was close to impossible to find one for a reasonable price. So, the amount was not cheap but at least I got a pristine copy and it has been signed by close to ten pilots and crew chiefs of the 352nd fighter group! I am happy.

ScottsGT Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 I fell for the trap. We both agreed no gifts since the wife wants to take a big trip in March. So as a joke, I bought he an electric toothbrush she was telling a friend about. Christmas morning she gave me a new $1000 iPad I’m posting from right now. I’ll never fall for that one again.

Rick Griewski Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 My wife and I are going to Ikea after the holiday to buy me a display case. Now that I am retired some models are nearing the finish line. I get to keep it upstairs to.

Rick If you get the Detolf, you can install some wire clamps on the vertical supports which will allow you to double the number of shelves. I did this with the one I have and will be doing it on the new one as well. scvrobeson, Iain, Out2gtcha and 6 others 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
