Repacement Focus Screen

Getting a bit frustrated.... my K3 focus screen has been sitting in the Parcelforce International Hub since the 24th February 'AWAITING CUSTOMS CHARGING'. I received an invoice from ParcelForce on 23/02/2010, which is 7 days after the parcel arrived at customs. If yours arrived at customs on 24/02/...

Samsung gx20 jpeg settings?

Carl, If they are going to be anything more than 'holiday snaps', then shoot RAW. That way you will have much more latitude in terms of post-processing when you get home. After all, it will be more of challenge to return for a re-shoot, if you can't edit them the way you'd like. Hmm... But t...

Samsung gx20 jpeg settings?

You could always get bigger SD cards as well. I bought a 16gb card for my picture frame from Amazon for £18. The frame was faulty so I sent it back. I tried the card (Class 2) in the K20D and was amazed how useable it still is. I think I can get about 550 RAW files on it.

More coloured KXs coming...

Tony, it was entirely my fault with the K20D. I had an Ist Ds which I loved and was happy with, but I decided I wanted more. The specs of the K20D were great, and my husband offered to get one for me. What I should have done was play with one first. I find it too big and clunky for me. I foolishl...

I tend to have two distinct ways of using my Km. I do try to take photos with artistic merit, but I'm just as prone to putting it on green and using it to record an event or object for future reference (or just to take photos to post online). Sometimes that doesn't work - for example, taking photos ...

AP Gives K7 award of Innovation of the Year 2010

and anyone who has read John Hedgecoes book knows his preference in cameras, at least back in the day (not sure what he's shooting now).

AP Gives K7 award of Innovation of the Year 2010

Not all Sigma lenses front focus. Going back to the K-7, having had more on my hands to consider the merits of the camera I think it's right that it won most innovative camera of the year. I'm still not entirely convinced that the automatic horizon correction is the main event :) Coming from ...

Me JPG's are B+W ?

Today I thought I'd test all those features on the K7 which are sadly JPG-only: lens correction and HDR. So I shot RAW+ and then set JPG for the couple of in-camera HDR shots. It was then I noticed the preview image was monochrome. Now back home and I can see all the JPG's are B&W while to PEF's ar...

Sounds like you may have activated it by mistake instead of changing focus points? It's easy enough to do!

Why the need to focus before adding filters? I doubt that the addition of filters is going to affect where the camera focuses, they will be too close to the front element. But as Amin says simply swithc to MF after focusing

Im going to be using a Welding Mask Glass that will be glued to an old filer less its glass , but I cant see through it at all .. Thanks again

I wouldn't even think of putting even a good quality welding filter in front of a lens if I wanted good results. There's a reason why they cost 3 quid and ND filters cost 50 quid. Can't you use the menus to you move the AF to the button at the back so that there is no AF when you press the shutte...

Then again at a couple of quid it's a risk worth taking! Rather than buying ND filters for £50 and finding you don't use them very often.
