K20 D
...mount a small manual gun Like the AF160 which will cost you all of, say, £9 :P Or, get an IR transmitter that sits on the hotshoe... that'll trigger most Elinchroms etc. That'll set you back around £30. Triggering studio lights isn't the only reason I want to be able to switch pre-flash off. ...

K20 D
I am also tempted by DA*300. Ik woon in Den Haag, en werk in Leiderdorp :D Know any dodgy traders at ABN AMRO or Rabobank? They may be able to spare a few thousand euros from their multi-billion haul? I guess ING won't suffer after Nick Leeson's activities :roll: Glassware for me this ye...

K20 D
First to Golfdiesel. Thanks for putting McBrian straight on the EI-2000 being a genuine DSLR. Olympus followed on a year after Pentax and made a compact DSLR but all the reports still rated the Pentax the better camera. To McBrian. I never said I wanted everything for nothing (there's no such thin...

Auto modes on K100D anyone?
I believe the Auto Picture modes as we currently recognise them were first introduced on some of the MZ 35mm cameras, although there was an earlier simplified version as far back as the the P50 To quote from my MZ6 manual in Auto PIcture mode the camera selects a Picture Mode depending on the ca...

Auto modes on K100D anyone?
While in Dogging mode, press Fn and Menu simultaneously to bring up a sub menu. This contains a list of 25 popular breeds of dog. The camera will automatically select faster shutter speeds for the faster breeds, and smaller apertures for the larger ones - to get them all in focus. However, thes...

Auto modes on K100D anyone?
I was pulling your dogleg about the sub menu :lol: , but the rest was serious. The Scene modes do influence the selection of shutter speed or/and aperture. To see if the saturation, sharpness and contrast, etc, are affected too, try looking through the menus to see what they are set to when u...

K10D complete failure when pop-up flash popped up
Roseanne, sorry to hear your sad story of repairs. I am indeed a lucky guy, as everything seems to be OK, apart from dirt on the sensor and one or two specks on the focussing screen. The flash seems OK, but to be honest I have not used the camera too much in the past 2 weeks since getting it back. Y...

K10D complete failure when pop-up flash popped up
Hi all, Just wanted to let you know that I have spoken to the Pentax repair Agent today. They had repaired the camera in Melbourne, and he had the camera back in the Brisbane office. He retested the camera and flash again. (this was the 3rd time repaired) The flash failed again when he tested it....

full frame..
I think if Canon can reduce the price of full frame sensors massively and quickly before there is significant further development of smaller sensors then maybe other makers will have to follow suit? We'll have to wait and see ................. :lol: The thing is, manufacturers don't have to follow...

full frame..
<snip>If they want to attract pros, they need longer range lenses, more flashes, high IQ, generally, good everything, and also good marketing</snip> Please don't take this as a dig at you ('cos that's not how it's meant) but stop for a moment and ask yourself why Pentax would want to go ...

full frame..
But I don't want to get hung up on size/weight at the moment, the original question was why a full frame sensor cannot go with in body anti-shake. OTOH size/weight might be just the point that the advocates of this argument are making. For me, though, it always sounded as if the laws of physics wou...

anti-shake
Excellent picture - I will be trying other non-pentax lenses at the weekend. Took about 80 shots last weekend out in country on a long walk with 18-55 pentax, some one handed shots, and only had about 2 out of focus

K10 Selling Fast in UK/Got Mine. Wow.
Like many I have been holding back on purchase recently until specs of K20 and costs were established. I am sure this will be a great camera. However for me the extra benefits for say £900 Body Only has persuaded me to go for the K10 at £450 inc 18-55 lens. In the last couple of days I have rung a...
