K7 Battery
Well as it's shown as a 1300mAh I have only used it in the grip as a back-up power source. It still takes ages to charge though - probably as long as the original :? Can't really say how many shots I get out of it though but it seems okay as a back-up. Hope this is of some use. Rob

How to change Sharpness and Contrast settings in K20D
Yes a bit I've no idea how photshop elements read the metadata but that's besides the point. First time hearing that you need to change the contrast if you change the sharpness though. Ithought the Menu was quite the same as with the K10D but they have moved those settings it seems. You now n...

Bought a K7 today
Well i went to look at one as I had to handle one before I made a decision - local currys & LCE shops had Nikon D300s and canon 50d's which are nice but i really like the pentax features - so i had to travel 55 miles to find a pentax pro dealer with one in stock. I was worried about the size but its...

Bought a K7 today
Will, I hope you are enjoying the K7. It is an awesome bit of kit. Hardly touch my K10d now. However keeping it as a back up & to shoot remotely behind the goal at football. with regards to the white balance on the K7 I often shoot football in lighting that can change from quite bright to floo...

Samsung Battery Grip GX20
George This is also available at Argos at the slightly less wallet-bashing price of £141. I bought one a few weeks back and they still have stock by the looks of it. This came up at the top of a Google search I did, so I'm surprised that you didn't see it. Apologies for that, I would have post...

Samsung Battery Grip GX20
Tony, I did get an e-mail from argos to say it was back in stock a few weeks back but I picked this up 2 days after they sent it and they were out of stock again ! Have just checked it again and it still shows out of stock after keying in postcode when you go through the order process. Perhap...

Memory Speed K-X
Ken I hesitate disagree with you but I have one card that is substantially faster than the others and I make sure that's the first one I use. It's a Lenovo (?) and the other Lenovo I have is slower oddly. The only time it shows is when taking 5 shots in very quick succession and then wanting to p...

Impressed with the K-X
My uncle now has a K-X and I've played with it for a good 3 hours and like the title said I'm impressed. The AF (real 11 point vs 3 point KM) seems to work like it should and is quite snappy, It feels also faster then the K10D focus. Viewfinder was certainly very decent compared to the K10D, whi...

Impressed with the K-X
Did an interesting portrait exercise a few weeks ago. Took a series of head and body shots of my wife modelling t-shirts, for a friends website. She hates having her photo taken and is always blinking or pulling a face. So for this I set up the camera on a tripod and used remote control release t...

Will a camera lose it's focus with heavy use?
My K10D is starting to show signs of age now, I have had it over 18 months and put nearly 40k on the clock .. previous user had it for 12 months and did 5k. I have noticed that the focus has shifted slightly and I am starting to miss my target on occasions when using fast apertures. Will a camera do...

Will a camera lose it's focus with heavy use?
The autofocus shouldn't 'drift' with age, because your K10D uses the actual image through the lens to adjust focus in the same way that you or I would when using a manual focus lens. In a system where the camera assessed the distance to the target, then adjusted the lens mechanism to match it wi...

I have noticed that the focus has shifted slightly and I am starting to miss my target on occasions when using fast apertures. Will a camera do this...? My K10D is nowhere near as old as a shutter count of 40k (about 13k), but I have seen evidence of the AF adjustment moving. I described what I f...

Will a camera lose it's focus with heavy use?
I described what I found , and there was some discussion in the posts that followed. Interesting, I was asking this question after trying my new 55mm f1.4 (because I have seen a lot of reports saying there is a focus problem with the K10D) and then comparing with the FA 50mm 1.4 which showed ex...

It seems pretty likely that Mike-P already had one (or more likely, several) f1.4 lenses before this one :)
