I was just wondering...I've seen one of these Camera And Lens Covers and I was wondering if anyone had one? If they were worth the money or should I stick to a Tesco carrier bag because it's pretty expensive with a telephoto lens?

Thanks Florian.
But I was thinking where this might be of some use. I would like to get one actually but it's just the damn price that puts me off. So if anyone has one feel free to chirp in and tell me how wonderful it is.
Did you even read the thread? The thread starter is looking for a bag or coat for his DSLR to make it waterproof. He's not actually looking for a new camera, a crappy Pentax at that. :P

Cool down.

There is no reason to be rude.

I was not in a bad mood, in fact I've been having a marvelous week. There was also a touch of sarcasm in my reply, which should have given the point of across, that I wasn't taking it too serious. Pretty much, just stating the facts.
Quoting TACAA320 (Reply 8): Pentax definitely will not agree with you.
Doesn't matter to me, however it is true that they'd disagree. But in my opinion, A consumer can get much better of a product than Pentax, even weatherproof/waterproof cameras. Pentax is definitely one of my least favourite cameras... even though I have to sell them!

Why do Pentax's people will care about a teenager's opinion of their products?
They definitely don't.
First of all, I am technically an adult. But that's not important, and is completely irrelevant towards anything mentioned. Simply just a lame attempt at an attack.
Also, considering I sell THEIR (Pentax) cameras, I think my opinion should be quite important. I could easily convince a customer into purchasing a brand of my choice. Seeing as 75% of the consumers know just enough to get by, they take my word, which is fine... but that's also why you don't bring personal opinions sales.

Just "technically" ? I supposed that.

Only if you are smarter than your clients. [I'm not saying the opposite, not endorsing what you said, since I don't know you].
But always remember, "the client is always right".

The client/customer is definitely always right, no disagreeing there. That is why you have to deal with every situation differently, but it's not hard to convince some people to try a different brand. I personally have done that before, just to keep the sale within' the company that I am/was employeed by. Just that, As long as the customer doesn't come back complaining, I can only assume I did it for their benefit as well.

Only 75% ? Are you sure ?
No, I'm not sure. I wasn't given enough time to do a worldwide survey. I do apologize for that.
