Lens for K100D super
Just been offered a Sigma 70-210mm Zoom Lens Fit Pentax KA Mount by a friend. Unfortunately he lives a far way from me. I know this is a manual focus but will it fit my K100D and does anyone have any views on this make and model lens?

GX20 Grip with WiFi?
I like the helpful tips on the back screen: "Please press the shutter if you want to take a picture". G

K10D Jpeg settings
This story seems all too common, I was at a christmas party and the host had just got a new 6mp compact from santa (kodak as I recall) anyway he asked my advice but totally ignored it by letting another guest change the jpeg setting to the lowest possible resolution, I gave up and went back to enjoy...

K100D AF switch jammed
Nooooooo! My K100D has been perfect for months! Now, the autofocus/manual focus switch is jammed at MF. In spite of this, the AF drive shaft is still protruding, and AF is fully operational. The lens release button retracts the drive shaft as normal, but the switch WILL NOT MOVE. I don't...

K10d or K100d for novice
Hello, I'm trying to decide whether to get the K100 or K10 cameras right now. I haven't touched SLRs for around 15years, however I do still own that Pentax SF7, with an extra zoom, plus my dad has an old ME Super with some lenses I could 'borrow'. I would like to get back into photography, an...

K10d or K100d for novice
I'm trying to decide whether to get the K100 or K10 cameras right now. I have the K10D and like you I wanted more creative controll and not scene modes. I made the jump from a MZ5n and haven't looked back. I have not had any experience with the K100D but I would suggest that the K10D would provi...

K10d or K100d for novice
Don't forget that the K100D is 6.1MP and the K10D is 10.2MP. There is more detail in very large images with the K10D but the K100D does offer lower noise if low-light photography is your style. The K10D offers longer battery life between charges, but not in the same league as ME Supers where you ...

K10d or K100d for novice
...and poorer low-light performance if that's true, would be downsides for me. Pete, it's swings and roundabouts ;) The 6Mp SLRs cover ISO 200 - 3200. The 10Mp covers ISO 100-1600. The 10Mp noise at ISO1600 is different to the 6Mp. From what I've seen (as I have 3 Pentax DSLRs) the 10Mp has far...

K10d or K100d for novice
Thank you very much for all the replies. I think I will get a K10d, this was really my plan but I needed to be sure that it was truly worth it. Although it is not US prices, the current K10d seems a bargain, and not to be missed. Otherwise I'll be stuck getting a K200d (the same as a K10d but the...

Cleaned the sensor of my K10D
oops I am another one. I used a lens micro-fibre cloth to clean both the mirror and the focussing screen. Giotto blower on the rest. I do have a very clean K10D now, I just am worried what you write John and all the rules I have broken! My problem was, my camera had to go back to have the mother-...

Saving Raw File Setting in K10 User Mode
If you set up, say RAW capture, DNG format, in, say, Program mode, it will save it for Program mode. If you want it to save it in User mode, you have to go to the Set-up menu, and explicitly save the current (Program, in this example) settings as User mode. Then when you select User mode, it...

Saving Raw File Setting in K10 User Mode
turn camara on, press 'menu' button, select 'rec mode', scroll down to 'file format', select 'raw', then select which raw format you want, dng or pef. pef will give smaller image sizes with no loss of quality over dng. All true, but doing this will not save the settings to User Mode, which is what ...
