K20d settings

Max it depends on what programs you're used to work with, if you've photoshop you have ACR in that so no need to buy one or get lightroom that works really well. Silkypix is a very good program for that money but I'm used to Adobe so couldn't get my head around it. :) I believe that free programs a...

K20d settings

Roger, have you checked to see whether your K20D and lenses are focussing accurately? It could be that you have front or back focus issue with your lenses. Luckily with the K20D it can be relatively easily corrected with a few tests and menu setting changes :)

K20d settings

I too would like sharp shots but after over a year with the K20, most of my shots are a little soft. I have seen some really nice sharp shots on this forum that are spectacular but mine are not. I normally use raw plus jpeg and play with the raw shots in elements 7 but when I attempt to sharpen up t...

ttk Thanks for the reply I completed the focus chart check a couple of months ago. One of my kit lenses has a back focus problem that is so far out, the k20 focus adjustment will not correct. I must send it back to SRS for replacement. The focus chart test on the 16-45 is however spot on so I ...

Blue bands with GX20

I've had it a year, though going back through some of my photos, I have noticed that the problem has been there since at least Christmas. Is this an inherent fault and I've just failed to notice it sooner?

If the sensor is one of the famous S--Y flops (produced down to a price)and it sounds a bit like it send it back. Cedric

Blue bands with GX20

?? :shock: Sorry you've lost me there - aren't they all the same in GX20s and K20Ds? I've sent the camera back to the retailer today - just have to see what they suggest as a fix. Having said that, given the option, I don't know whether to get it replaced with another GX20 or, bearing in mind ...

Auto-Bracket

I only shoot raw, I don't know if that makes any difference but certainly in ACR I'm often pulling exposure back up to a half stop. Lens wise I use the 15mm, 35mm and 70mm DA Limited lenses and metering multi mode. The slight over exposure seems to occur mainly on shots with a full tonal range. ...

K200D Problem

Hi, Thanks to all of you for responding. When I first saw the K-7 I did consider upgrading to that. However, I have been following all the forums about it and while I like the idea of the vide for the safaris I go on (sometimes it would be nice to capture the whole scene and the noises and if yu ...

Aren't these the modes it can send through the output socket (HDMI), rather than what it records? Thing I want to know is how to bracket now the button seems to have gone. And talking of bracketing, why does no one do focus bracketing as well as exposure, etc? Robert.

Here is an idea for the next model. Strip out as much of the gadget electronics and 'must have' features as possible to reduce weight in the body. Leaving the body as basic as possible, no in body processing, just a basic RAW file. Focus on IQ, lots of greyed out menus. Make gadgets and featu...

But Amin, Why should you have to put up with it? This is part of the whole HoyaPentax Problem! Just like when the British use to make cars! Good designs, good ideas - just rubbish, they would release their models and let the customers find out what the problems were! HoyaPentax is losing its way...

New K-7 Specifications.

Why are people expecting their camera to focus for them? Where's the fun in that? Have you tried trying to lock a focus on a moving subject? Or trying to get a sequence of shots of a subject running towards you for example? That's where in my opinion a fast focus lock would be handy. I get the fun ...
