Horses are always a challenge though in my experience. Glad to hear you managed to sell some on the day too. What a good id...

I wuv my KR

My kids laugh at me for thinking WD40 such a wonder fix for things. Worth a try on the wheel problem if out of warranty but given the newness of the camera I think I'd be sending it back. I gather some of the 645's have had a similar problem so Pentax service must be aware.

I wuv my KR

Hello Everyone. Call me lazy, but. Just got the KR. Nice camera, you can see that it is a little more consumer, than pro. But I am more consumer than pro as well. Havent really tested it as yet. Sometimes setting all those whistles and bells on the K20D becomes burdensome, particularly when you a...

Batteries again (sorry...)

That one's easy to answer. Because the manufacturer (Pentax) has specified its requirements and these are to a very high standard and the opentax guarantee of quality stands behind that. It's a pity they are not so demanding of themselves. Let's not talk about quality control in the same thread as t...

Just got a K-7- some setting questions

I've often wondered about these settings - there are various others eg sharpness, saturation etc. Is it best to leave these on the midway setting without adjusting up or down and leave it to Elements to do any adjustments necessary. I shoot in RAW so what I mean is it better to do any editing in ...

Auto focus speed K5 vs K20d??

Hi everyone I am currently a K20D owner and I love this camera. But there is a few things that drive me crazy sometimes with this camera. 1st is the level of noise even at iso 200 and when I use iso 400 noise is very noticable already. I personaly never shoot highter than iso 400 on the K20d. I n...

Auto focus speed K5 vs K20d??

If the K5's auto focus speed can match with the Nikon D300 than I will purchase my K5 very soon. Pentax are getting there but imo no, it is no match for the D300s or 7D.

But is it a lot faster than the K20d? say 30% faster and more accurate than the K20d? I wouldn't say 30% but it is faster and more accurate than the K20D.

Auto focus speed K5 vs K20d??

Thanks John and Mike Sounds like I have to start saving up for the K5 now. Spend the money on a K5 or use the money to spend on another trip to photograph?? Decision decision.

Auto focus speed K5 vs K20d??

AF speed etc will depend on the lens, I find with the Sigma 50-500 the lens hunts just as much and it doesnt appear that much faster, the Pentax SDM leses I have are considerably quicker on the K5 and also lock on without problem 99% of the time

Auto focus speed K5 vs K20d??

I've only had my K5 for a couple of days and not used it for anything other than test shots yet, but AF speed is faster than the K20D. It also focusses better in low light too. Noise control is very good, but I never really had a noise problem with my K20D's and was happy to use it up to about IS...

Auto focus speed K5 vs K20d??

US Mag Popular Photography actually measure focusing speed in their tests. At EV 12 the K-5 was faster than the Nikon D7000 and Canon 60D (0.28, 0.37, 0.35 secs) It was slightly faster at EV 10 and EV 8 at EV 6 (light in a kitchen) they were all about the same.

Stop bringing facts into the argument, Algi. Everybody knows that Pentax cameras focus slowly, and no amount of testing will convince people otherwise. G

Auto focus speed K5 vs K20d??

It also focusses better in low light too. I thought there was a major issue with low light performance, as detailed here: http://www.falklumo.com/lumolabs/articles/k5focus/K5Focus.pdf John
