Older than thought?! Wow! That's gotta be really, really old because thought goes way back in human history. Another example of poor wording of a headline.

You can't use the sync chord because your Pentax K10D does not have a socket for it
Youre right that the K10 lacks a sync socket but that is irrelevant. As I pointed out above, the Wein adapter, which attaches to the cameras hot shoe, has one. (And it works just fine.)

Got my first serious camera, a Yashica-J rangefinder, while stationed at NATTC Memphis in 1968. Did all my own developing and printing at the on-base facility. Still have the little gem and many of the old negatives.

Leica M series
Agreed with regard to street photography but the digital Ms, especially the Typ 240, even with a smallish Summicron 35 (like mine, pictured below), are not exactly pocket cameras, which seems to be what the OP is looking for.

The Rock :) has a brief How-To; for a more in-depth discussion, you might want to read: An Introduction To Tilt + Shift Photography by Peter Hill.

The Agfa Ambi SILLETEs are interesting but not especially collectible or valuable. Heres an eBay link to a three lens kit similar to the one you describe which sold for $255.00USD. (If you scroll down on the page, the seller has a little blurb about these cameras. You can do some other eBay searches or Google for more info.)

Your's seems a bit top heavy though - could be dangerous.
It is, a bit, and I do have to be careful where I park it. (Ill even lay it down on its back sometimes just to guard against any disasters.) But since I basically just use it to truck the gear around the city, that hasnt been much of a problem, really.

Thanks Goofy ! Yes, as I mentioned back in the film days( '77-'85) I was using the converted golf cart for the same reasons as you mention - light stands and tripods.
Not to horn in but for what's worth, heres my DYI tripod caddy using an oxy cart :) (Really comes in handy sometimes.)

Unfortunately you have to use Nikons to use it, no one else made such a unit that I am aware of.
Good luck.
Good luck.
About a year after Nikon introduced the TC-16A, Pentax came out with the SMC Pentax-F 1.7x AF Adapter. Essentially the same thing as the Nikon gadget (but for Pentax lenses of course), it was in production until 1997.

This story has nothing to do with national artifacts [?]. Its ostensibly about what seems to be an unreasonably strict interpretation of Danish copyright law; but IMO what its really about is, as the commentator, David Trads, puts it in the original article from The Local:
