London Shots - K10D vs 120
If I had to make a choice it would be in favour of the Velvia, for two reasons A) the top of the towers seem to be burned out with the K10, but then again the sun/cloud had obviously moved for the second shot - in fact the burn-out seems to have moved down the towers so it is still there B) I pre...

Focus on Imagaing 2007 Anyone Going ??
Hi, I am going on the Sunday also..I live in Walsall, not so very far away. Yes the NEC is a bit crap, but it is FAR better than anything London has to offer and the vast majority of the UK hate travelling to London due to the dreadful roads, awful roadusers and ignorant people who just shove ...

If you want to see specific products at 'Focus' then be sure to look at the website before traveling,...more and more of the big names are rightly giving 'Focus' the elbow..... Also check the website of NEC to find out how many other shows are going to be on at the same time,......the last and f...

Example of Adding white canvas frame with caption to images
That's a beautiful shot Prieni, very 'other-worldly'. :D Have to say though I think your border needs to be wider, the image looks a little cramped in there to me. I prefer it like this (hope you don't mind me 'remounting' your photo, I looked for one of my own to use but kept being drawn back ...

using k mounted lenses on DSLR: worthwhile?
You certainly don't need to use the lenses at open aperture if you don't want to - in manual mode you can stop the lens down to any aperture you like (using the aperture ring) and take a meter reading. The open aperture thing is only relevant in Av mode, when the camera does not close down the aper...

using k mounted lenses on DSLR: worthwhile?
In terms of quality all the pentax bayonet mount lenses come from an era of computer aided design and are top quality. Some film lenses are however not at their best on digital because of chromatic abberation effects (colour fringing) but most are fine. The 50mm lenses are all superb, and do indeed ...

infra red conversion of istD
It is possible to have a camera converted to take IR. The IR filter is removed and substituted with plain glass (hopefully coated to prevent reflections). Then the only thing to remember is to correct the lens focus point. Older lenses with IR focusing marks are very useful in this respect. This ...

K10D vs K100D Lowlight
You may find that you can get away with a faster shutter, a wider aperture AND still maintian adequet DOF. Interiors usually require wide angle lenses, therfore f8 to f16 may be more than enough if u use hyperfocal distance...ie focus 1/3 the way into your frame and bracket youur apertures in apert...

*ist-D in Action
Just been doing a spot of spring cleaning of files and dumping lots of the junk photos that I've accumulated. Stumbled across this one which I thought I'd share with you... Taken at Willen Lake in Milton Keynes last Sept with *ist-D and Sigma 70-200 f/2.8 EX. Was about the only shot I nailed out ...
