Pointless award season!
I think a special consumer award to Jules for keeping the industry going almost single handed :-) That's right, his recent move back to Pentax has caused an unexpected upturn in the Consumer Prices Index :lol: Cheers Guys! Got to keep Pentax going somehow, I already prefer my KP to my X-Pro2, if ...

Pentax Camera Utility 5
Somebody hasn't read the last sentence in my query. It reads: For what it's worth: I do not own or use any Adobe software e.g. Lightroom, so that is out of the question. That is a roundabout way of saying that I won't entertain them. OK, you didn't say that! What about Serif's Affinity Photo. The...

Corel aftersot pro 3 updated for Penta K1
What a battle with Corel to get their Trial free version corrected. I will take a pat on the back, thank you. I kept after Corel to update Aftershot pro 3 to include the Pentax K1. I haven't yet updated, but I will. Also using Adobe lightroom which I really like, I'll play with both and see how t...

First DSLR, K5, shutter count...
I have had a lot of experienced buying cameras and in the early days bought a number of them used. After the writing was on the wall in regard to Olympus abandoning the DSLR I decided to have a second system available to me and tested the water with a used Pentax K-20D. I can't recall the shutter ...

I did 1500 clicks in around 2 hours when I used my K-1 to do time lapses. At the time I posted on here as I was quite surprised that timelapse frames counted as shutter clicks, but I'm over it now. Show your appreciation for your kit by using it! 1500 clicks in two hours, impressive! I got a ...

K3 firmware update - does it wipe settings such as focus fine adjustments?
Hi all I'm just about to update the firmware on my K3 from 1.11 to 1.2, no real reason other than to keep it up to date, but it occurred to me that this might wipe some of my customisation and settings. In particular, I spent an age calibrating the fine focus adjustments on all my lenses and...

K3 firmware update - does it wipe settings such as focus fine adjustments?
Why aren't you upgrading to v1.30 which is the latest and enables PLM lenses? I didn't notice any settings change when I updated.

K3 firmware update - does it wipe settings such as focus fine adjustments?
I've had a KX, a KR, a K5, a late K3 version 1.18 bought sold recently with 1.30 for the PLM lens, now on K3 II which only had the one update for my PLM lens. No updates (and i've done them all) have ever altered my personal settings.

In my experience the UK site has rarely been up to date. The parent site was better in Hoya era as well as present Ricoh era remains the place to go for latest stuff. Link at http://www.ricoh-imaging.co.jp/english/support/digital/k3_s.html [quote:3496ace15f="mattie"][quote:3496ace15f="JAK"]Wh...

Continuous shooting with a K3-ii
From the 'drive' button of the 4 way controller I selected remote trigger with continuous shooting. I focussed a DA 55-300 on a bees' nest, disengaged the AF to keep the focus and pressed the remote button. The thing went off like a machine gun. How the hell do you stop it? Press the remote again? N...

Continuous shooting with a K3-ii
it was a good job that the bees didnt take offence as it would have been a full memory card off blur and out of battery you would have had to put up a smoke screen to get the k3ii back

Where to now? Upgrading my K5
@McGregNi Thanks! I've read about the Flu-Card and people only complain re their transfer speed and general pita so wasn't convinced it would do that good of a job. Unless someone has any real life experience with it? I didn't even think of KP if I'm honest - might need to do some homework although ...

Where to now? Upgrading my K5
Newer cameras will have focus peaking and digital zoom in live view, making manual focussing much more easier. For manual focus lenses, or subject matter where the exact focus point is very important, I'd suggest manual focussing like this, with the camera on a tripod and the subject matter station...
