Loving my Pentax K200D
And welcome back to the fold from me, too. But ignore Spad's 'brotherhood of loonies', we're the sane ones, it's the rest of the world that's gone crazy :lol:. Steve

Bought another lens for my K200D
I bought a DA 50-200m WR lens off E-Bay for £68 which complements my 18-55mm. I took a couple of quick photos in my back garden and it seems the lens is nicely sharp

Bought another lens for my K200D
Nice pic's and nice purchase. The purist prime snobs will often decry zooms but I love 'em even though I have umpteen primes to choose from. Try the 55-300 if you can. A superb lens with extra reach an relatively cheap.:smile: I use to have the 18-135mm which was a good lens but a bit heavy if I ...

One advantage of dSLR that I'd forgotten...
I've been using largely mirrorless in recent years and had missed the more immersive experience of using a dSLR. So I took the K3iii with me to a theatre dress rehearsal in St Albans last week and was generally very pleased with how it all went. Highlight metering is brilliant in these circums...

One advantage of dSLR that I'd forgotten...
Yes battery life is excellent on dslr, my K1ii also ( have two Pentax original batteries) and as well as the available Live view screen option, can be very handy in tricky light for optimum exposure and then easy to flick back to the viewfinder mode for framing and timing of the photograph. Never...

K200D - First image overexposed
My Pentax K200D works correctly, BUT When I turn it on, the first image is always overexposed (too clear) Exif aperture and speed of first image are the same as next takes of the same image. I have tested many ways to solve this issue. - Use normal batteries instead of rechargeable - Disable ...

K200D - First image overexposed
K200D does not suffer from the aperture block failure of the K-30/50/70 series. I have two K200Ds, and I recently got overexposed images with Rokinon manual focus lenses with the aperture ring locked in 'A.' Pentax A and FA lenses set this way do not overexpose locked in 'A.' If you're using lens...

The Pentax K-1…
I am requiring some advice from you guys about the K1. As you know I have been doing some work with a dirty word camera, while a great camera, I believe it not to be Pentax great. I have recently been playing with my K3 more, and as a result, I have fallen back in love with Pentax. It feels bett...

Text of the interview as translated by Google: ------------------------ Ricoh / Pentax made its big comeback at the Paris Photo Show for this year 2024 after 6 years of absence. A period during which the market evolved well and Pentax refocused its activity on sometimes surprising niche sectors, s...

I have invested even in the film days mid 80s, so I won't be leaving Pentax anytime soon and having the privilege of owning a K1ii, till death does us part or which ever comes first.:surprised: K70 as well and still building up my many lenses. I love the fact that I stuck with Pentax, It cost me...

This might be of interest, unfortunately.
What do each of us want from a photographic device? I want the ability to create a work of art from the fusion of an antique lens and the controlling possibilities of a 21stC camera. They seem to want a whizz-bang box of gimmicks to render their endless selfies sufficiently well to post on social me...

On the bright side that does show a degree of realism and awareness that frankly has been missing from past interviews. I always viewed this as Mirrorless and DSLRs with mechanical shutters and interchangeable lenses have more in common than they have differences. We're fundamentally just talk...
