K5 number 3...?
Seriously when I came over to the erm "Light Side". I mentioned my usual two Body set up and was told I was being a bit daft wanting two bodies, not so sure now, even if you don't use it it's nice to know it's there! Can I have my old K7 back please??? I am now using three bodies when out & about....

K5 number 3...?
Two bodies will always win for me, unless someone develops a 16-200 2.8 using water lens technology. LOL Anyway, the number of issues that the K5 has is certainly alarming. Let's just hope that this isn't as bad as it sounds since there are a lot more people who are happy with the camera but we d...

Even the focusing issue was blown out of proportion by people who don't actually know how to properly test for FF/BF. It only appears in very specific situations. No the focussing issue wasn't blown out of proportion. It's significance was very real. If anything it was under reported because of...

Being on my second troublesome K5 I'm with you on all points Smeggy! The second has troubles too and my be that I exchanged my first just too early and have another problematic one? It's going back to Pentax after the Bank holiday shoots I have planned and I don't want it back so "there may be troub...

Quick question - which 'type' of focus adjustment
ok, I'm having a 'moment' - even though I've done this before I'm now doubting myself. I have a Samsung GX20 and am attempting to set the AF fine adjustment setting for a single lense - do I need 'all types' or 'single type' to change settings for a single lense? Also, if are the settings cumu...

Quick question - which 'type' of focus adjustment
I know it sounds obvious :oops: but I'm having brain fade today! When I went into the menu options it was set to 'all types' and I could have swore it was set to 'single type' so I confused myself! :?

When a Pentax Full Frame
I shot mainly Portraits and Fashion , not so many landscapes and others. I'm quite surprised when you say there isn't much difference between the K-7 and K-5. Did you try ISO 6400? :lol: I personally do not want a FF Pentax. The K-5 is perfectly sized AFAIC. If resolution is critical then Pent...

When a Pentax Full Frame
Hefty1 .... I absolutely do not agree with you. If it is your philosophy I do not understand why you went to APS-C . The smaller sensors are full of positive aspects except for quality when printing. The 127 or 120 are exactly the same in terms of negative dimension and belive me you still make exe...

When a Pentax Full Frame
Lets say SLR film cameras had always used the frame size of APS-C. Would you still want a 35mm frame size? All these frame sizes are arbitrary. Sensors will evolve in the APS-C size that will out perform any of today's FF sensors. The K-5 sensor is the current step the this evolution. Less and ...

pretend you are picking up a camera for the very first time. That's easy to do. I'll just think back to that K1000 in 1981. When I picked it up I couldn't find anything wrong with it at all, except that it seemed a bit heavy. I didn't feel limited by having only a 50mm lens, needing to manually chan...

Don's right :shock: Pro's never wanted built in light meters and shock! horror! auto-focus. Nikons first AF lenses were about half the price of the MF lenses, because they were aiming purely at amateurs :shock: :lol:

the first pro mirrorless will probably hit the video market first by way of a 4k video camera that happens to take aps-c lenses and happens to take very high quality stills. when this bad boy gets a "Prosumer" little brother, priced for the masses, and a couple competitors from say samsung...
