Hard Drive Back-Up
Hah, I simply don't back up. Actually, thats a lie. I copy my music and photos to dvds every once in a while. My CDs would take too much time to copy again, and obviously photos are lost if the HD fails. Everything else, I don't care about.

Hard Drive Back-Up
I now keep minimal info/pics/music etc on my PC - its all on the ext hard drive And when (not if) that drive fails or is stolen, what then ? I still have my work backed up on disc - so why two systems? because I have instant access on the ex HD, either via my PC or laptop but so far - the only pr...

Hard Drive Back-Up
I always when I used windows subscribed to the separate partition and disk theory. So in those days I had a C: drive for just windows and a drive for D: for programs I bought or downloaded and installed, a E: partition on drive D: for Data. Then I moved to Linux and also Mac, I continue to have ...

Hard Drive Back-Up
I lost about 100GB of DNG's today (never mind the PSDs). Lost the master boot record on an encrypted drive and found no way of fixing it. Had to rebuild Only myself to blame :oops:

Hard Drive Back-Up
I had 3 Buffalo 500gb Raid drives that lasted, in order of arrival, 10 minutes, less than 30 seconds and 1 day - after that many repalcements as all were proven faulty I opted for a Maxtor 500gb 'one touch' external hard drive. Its a few years old now but the software is great, plug it in and it...

Pentax Original case, anyone know what it is / want to buy?
My guess is that it will fit the MZ series. The normal designation for the black plastic version is is Fg followed by S M or L (for size of lens). Edit, just found this information on an old Pentax User page https://www.pentaxuser.com/pages/pricelist/pl_afslracc.htm CAMERA CASES FOR MZ-3, MZ-...

A true loss to the photographic community.
Mr. Keppler was probably the biggest reason I went with Pentax back in my K1000 days... I liked the way he seemed to be able to cut through all the marketing spin and hype, and detail what was 'right' about a piece of equipment. (or wrong, as he sometimes did..) There goes probably my last re...

Cheque for a canoe will be fine. Either of would probably do me, although I can't guarantee when/if I'll reach you, or whether the cheque actually gets spent on a canoe. :D Dan Watch out Clarky - he'll be off to Panama with your money :lol: So long as he sends back some great pics i don't min...

No Pentax at the Focus on Imaging at the NEC this year...bit of a let down. is there any reason, all their rivals will be present. :(

Gordon, I'm not sure Pentax were there last year... or the year before. IIRC, ePhotozine hosted the main Pentax distributor. Matt

I don't think Canon were there last year either. Perhaps it's not the place people go to buy cameras? Well it wouldn't be if there are no manufacturers there... :?

Hi, Pentax have had some representation for the last two years, but last years stand was awful...small with dreadful presentation. Maybe a high ranking Pentax exec saw it and told them do much better or do not go at all. Canon have missed the last two years, but are back this time. Olympus mis...

'Focus' is a useless show in a horrible venue.... It's been deteriorating over several years and is best avoided...... The last time I went I did actually wonder if serious photography had a future in the UK due to the attitude of both punters and demonstrators. If theft is a big problem then ...

I think most people know that stealing is wrong, regardless of what they think of pricing levels. I don't think "The price was too high so I stole it" is a tenable argument. We actually enjoy Focus. We don't go there to buy things but to have a look at what's going on generally and get ...

If theft is a big problem then perhaps they could drop prices to be in line with the rest of the world instead of nearly twice the US prices and they might find a better minded set of customers. I keep hearing you guys complaining about high equipment price in your country. So, just for compari...

I keep hearing you guys complaining about high equipment price in your country. So, just for comparison sake, the Pentax K20d is at pre-sale right now in Canada for CAN$1259.00. To that, we have to add 7.5% for provincial sales tax in Quebec and 5% Goods and Service tax for the federal government. ...

Thank you Gwyn. With the current exchange rate, it ends up at about CAN$2001.15 (that is figuring out a price of 1019 Euro). With the taxes mine will cost CAN$1422.21. The difference is quite substantial. Now, I understand more the complaining. My dealer said he got confirmation fro...
