should shake reduction on(mono pod)

This is my take on SR... To SR or not SR depends mainly on the shutter speed rather than what you are mounting the camera on. There are, IMO, two factors: 1) Shutter speed 2) Amount of movement If the shutter speed is too long, then SR can introduce a measure of blurriness. If the amount of...

Scott I do follow quite closely your photos in the gallery :) they are always a joy to look at. I love wildlife and your shots are really wonderful. And you know what? you seem to get better by the day :). I remember that lovely blue tit perched on that lovely vibrant green plant that was awsome. I...

this one also was with the DA*, unfortunately missed the focus on the eyes, the little fellow was at its antics again :)

this one also was with the DA*, unfortunately missed the focus on the eyes, the little fellow was at its antics again Nothing is particularly sharp, I suspect this to be the 1/80th shutter speed. Try shooting in shutter priority at 1/500th with your 300mm. You can set the other control wheel to ...

Shim, The SR is only activated when you press the release button and it takes half a second till it's ready so I think you press to fast.[/quote] :shock:And it would be very nice if Pentax did a firmware update to make this a little Quicker:roll:[/quote] Mhmm indeed! And there are some more thi...

Stefan, I'll try again tomorrow... it wasn't working with the monopod on the camera body today using a 50mm lens. I'll try it on a 300mm attached to the tripod shoe on the lens. shim You need to half press the release button so that the lens will autofocus (if you've it on) and just wait for the ...

Stefan If you have the setting on AF.S when you press the shutter release button it won't release it until its focused. Now I am not sure if the time it will take to focus is enough also to have the SR on. Unlike the AF.C if its selected if you press the shutter release fully it will release e...

should shake reduction on(mono pod)

Amin You're right about that and the time the camera takes to check the focus is enough for the SR to settle hisself. I have the autofocus not under the release button and only on the AF button on the rear of the camera so if I press my shutter release it won't focus so I can press all the way...

should shake reduction on(mono pod)

There is, however, one "bug" that has caught me out :( If you only use the "AF" button to focus, so the shutter release does not do autofocus, then pressing the shutter release too quickly with SR on can blur the image. The situation was this - I was taking some shots at a wedding, with everyone in...

ebay fees UP AGAIN....from today..

Whilst it's a bit annoying when prices go up I'm a bit suprised at the number of "moans and groans" about Ebay/Paypal.... think back a little while before they existed and what outlets did we have for selling our items, not much...most of them just gathered dust in a bottom drawer. They're a busi...

Thanks Brian I am still waiting for my cash backs, the point I am making is that my two emails to Pentax have been ignored.

I you call Pentax and ask to speak with David, they can confirm if they have received your correctly completed form and that a cheque or transfer will be raised by accounts. Although they cannot say exactly the date, but at least you know its on its way.
