K20D versus Nikon D300

Lets get back to what we do best (Taking the micky out of Jessops)etc:wink: Hmmm you saying that, I had a good time in Jessops the other day trying out cameras. The sales assistant had no idea what to do with the camera I selected (no camera brands being mentioned here). I just wish that they had...

K20D versus Nikon D300

Well, let's all just relax a bit and take it easy now. Won't upload any emoticons even though I really would love to, I find those jumping moving images just hilarious :). Well not until I hear back from Martin and making sure he understood my point about the emoticons. I have already made my pea...

K20D versus Nikon D300

" please post a good comparison as GL suggests although I guess that means getting an M42 to Nikon adapter - we could have a whip round". Ken M42/Nikon glassless adapters do not exist due to registration distance problems (correct me if I am wrong please someone!) The adaptors that include glass ...

K20D versus Nikon D300

I think the irony here is that if Pentax had priced the K7 more keenly (sub £1000) and not hiked their lens prices up so drastically recently, this discussion wouldn't even be taking place and Pentaxians wouldn't even be considering an 'alternative' to the K7 for similar money. As it is the prici...

K20D versus Nikon D300

Of course, it's not so many years since the *ist D cost more than the K7. G That may be true George and I have to admit that back then I wasn't in the slightest bit interested in a DSLR, as I felt the technology wasn't up to the level I wanted it to be (I may have been mistaken but that was my pe...

k200 vs k20

hello all, first real post - been a forum lurker for awhiles... I am looking at getting my first DSLR - have used a few friends etc and I come from a film / slide background shooting mostly on a retro p30n with a number of lenses - hence I want to keep with pentax to use my old lenses.... N...

k200 vs k20

Hi Paul, You asked about the 18-55 kit lens... They are well regarded and worth getting at the same time as a body as the prices of body+lens are often only a small percentage greater than body only. The quality of kit zoom lenses is masses better than zoom lens of 10/15 years back and can ...

k200 vs k20

NOTE the focal length does not change and the depth of field does not change only the effective angle of view of the lens. Good for 50% though since the circle of confusion with APS-C sensor is smaller the DOF is smaller as well. The 18-55 would give the same angle of view on digital that your 28...

k200 vs k20

This is a thing that's often misquoted, but smaller formats have more DOF for a given field of view and that's because the focal length of the lens to achieve that field of view is shorter. An extreme example is that a Minox with its 15mm standard lens has such an immense FOV that it doesn't need...

k200 vs k20

John my last observation was with the FA*85 only on both formats at the same focus distance of 10m so the lens was acting the same for both cameras so only the senor/film size makes a difference. If you mean that the APS-C needs to be magnified more then the 35mm to cover a standard 6"x7" photo t...

John my last observation was with the FA*85 only on both formats at the same focus distance of 10m so the lens was acting the same for both cameras so only the senor/film size makes a difference. When you do this, the lens has a field of view similar to a 127.5mm lens on the 35mm camera, so you ar...

k200 vs k20

I too got a K200, mostly because it felt right in my hands (which aren't that big) but also because at £360 with the kit lens it was around £200 cheaper than the K20 (which was out of my budget!). I have only recently begun using it properly, but have managed to take some pictures that I am really h...

k200 vs k20

Well I've had a K200D since April 2008 and I am very happy with it. Then a few months ago we got a K20D at work but I can honestly say I still love my K200D. For most functions I use there is little my K200D can't do that the K20D can - you just have to go into the menus more often. I really like th...

Buying cokin filters

i have just checked out the website of fotokonijijenberg.nl. It is a winner compared to all the rest i have seen. To buy a 77mm ring adapter, ND grad filter N8 and filter holder for z pro series it will set me back 120 euro delivered. It is far cheaper than anywhere else, by atleast 50 euro. Thanks ...
