K100D and focus screen
Because it may not be well made and will black-out at around F5.6. You will value and appreciate a Katzeye screen as much as a lens, and will keep it for the life of the camera. It's good to use with AF lenses as well - to confirm whether AF has worked properly. Thanks everyone. After reading th...

To Shake or not to Shake
I'll post at more length when I've refined my approach a bit, but I've done a very rough preliminary look, aimed more at choosing subjects and setups than a careful investigation into SR. However, although I've seen no evidence of SR causing shake yet, with things set up right, I've found a very,...

Photosop cs3 vs Paintshop Pro X2
I had used PSP back in the old days, now on CS3 which I find meets all my needs, its just finding out about all the other stuff it does. Has a vertical learning curve, but it does get easier, plenty tutorials all over the web. Also I love Bridge software that comes bundled with CS3.

First DSLR - K10d queries
Well I've been thinking about getting a proper camera for quite a while so I was always figuring 500-700 (euro that is) but obviously I'd LOVE to spend less :) I'm definitely closer to 'skint' than 'loaded' I sent a mail to srsmicrosystems (who seem well thought of here) to price a kit with th...

First DSLR - K10d queries
I sent a mail to srsmicrosystems (who seem well thought of here) to price a kit with the K10d body+Pentax 18-55+Pentax 50-200+ memory card but no word back as yet. I have found that it is generally quicker to send Chris @ SRS a PM via this forum or to use the telephone. The best time to telepho...

First DSLR - K10d queries
reading around a little it seems like some people consider the K10d to have quite a steep learning curve. as a first time user would any of you consider it to be too much for a beginner? no word back from srs - it is a bank holiday today but i assume theyre open.

First DSLR - K10d queries
Bought my K10D a couple of months ago after weeks of indecision. I was originally going for a K100D super but after plenty of advice from this forum decided on it's big brother. It is a steep learning curve for a beginner but is so much more enjoyable, especially when you start putting out some dece...

Does your K10D's auto-focusing ever do this?
1. In Av mode or similar, select a medium to small aperture on the camera, say F8 or F11. 2. In AF-S and SEL or single-point modes, point at a static subject and half-press the shutter button or press AF to make the lens focus. 3. Let go and press again, just to make sure it's finished focusin...

Does your K10D's auto-focusing ever do this?
And of course I cannot get it to re-focus, now that I try to make it happen. Of course, no matter your selected aperture, the lens should always be wide open until you actually take the photo. So focus should not differ with your AV mode set at f/2.8 or f/11, etc... (unless you're moving an aper...

Does your K10D's auto-focusing ever do this?
I suppose they know more that I, but logically it don't make a lot of sense to me. I would assume that in addition to aperture, the subject distance would need to be known to correctly adjust for aberrations. There would be a few points on a graph that it would "know" about. Anything ...

Cleaning the Sensor of K10D
Thanks, will take a look. Wanted the picture as large as possible to show the particles in question. Got a rocket blower yesterday and gave that a go but its not really for the sensor so not much good, but it did get out a lot of the dust I aquired when fitting a new focus screen from ebay, then...

What's happening here?
Just a brain teazer. 16-45, 6th of a sec, hand held, manual focus, SR on, any idea why the wheels look like that? I could understand if it was lit by street lights cycling at 50hz but sunlight? Ignore the bad pan :) looks like I was panning too fast amongst other things...

keep it up guys the answer is out there somewhere! Antilock braking is another far-fetched idea that occurs to me that would cause a strobing effect I like this :) they were certainly braking when they saw me, but maybe not quite that hard ChrisA :P I'll nip out today if I get a chance and turn...

I quite like this mage actually, if that dog in the back had been pin sharp I think I would have flooked a pretty cool image. Maybe Photoshop a dog in :roll: I also kindof like the image.
