Shropshire Brook Update
Last year when I was doing the monthly photos, someone asked me if it dried up. If this year is anything to go by, the answer is no. Do we get more photos then? Not unless something unusual happens ...
New DSLR Rumour Mill

A Short Visit to Totnes.
As you've demonstrated how effective "snap" mode is - have you considered a viewfinder, one of the type that sits in the hotshoe and matches the angle of the lens? I use one on my GRIII some of ...

Positive (colour) vs. Negative (b/w)
Thanks, Stephen for your comments. The colour version is an environmental portrait, hence I did not consider vignetting to remove the clutter. The negative version is an attempt at creative photog ...

Disappointed with results when using a Pentax 1.4 x convertor on a Pentax 150-450 lens
Steve, this is interesting and point well made - I had not considered this.

Sigma 600mm Mirror Lens
Hi I regularly use my Pentax 40-600 reflex zoom. Most shots at 400 mm are fine, but at 600 mm a monopod or tripod are essential. Also, as Chrism8 has already said, a shutter speed in excess of 10 ...
