Light spot
Hi Stefan it seems Samsung are not keen giving anything back Im getting pretty fed up with the whole situation. I have to phone them in the morning and hopefuly they will be able to let me know what they intend to do. I am pretty sure though I will not get another GX 20 more than likely they will of...

I think I said it in the last conversation in a similar situation - you are not obliged to accept an alternative. What I'd do is see what they offer and at least work out what it's trade in value would be. If you're not happy with that, go back to where you bought it from and ask what they can o...

I had a Samsung pocket camera that would just lock up, to reset it I had to remove the batteries, wait, then try again. After 3 returns to Samsung (who didn't even open the body!) I went back to the store, explained and was offered a refund or replacement. That's why I have a Panasonic Lumix D...

Random long shot, here (I concede I have no experience of the GX20/K20D or its sensor), but is this basically a "stuck pixel" issue? If so, when Philstaff gets the Samsung back, is it perhaps worth trying some of the (allegedly folklore) tricks cited on Wikipedia to try and 'unstick' the pixel(s)...

Don't forget the sensor is covered anyway, so you can't apply a bit of pressure to it in the way you envisage. You're assuming I envisage it the way you envisage that I envisage it! ;) I'm not thinking LCD screen squeezability here; no moiré fringe pressure/stress patterns, or stuff like that. I was...

Well it did not turn out as I had hoped as Currys insisted the camera was returnd to them before giving me the credit voucher for the full value of the camera. Seems the guy at Samsung should not have suggested that I may keep the camera as Currys needed the unit to send back to Samsung to claim the...

Shutter clicks twice
Hi. First, what mode are you shooting in, as far as the main dial is concerned? This may explain things (some of the SCENE modes automaticaly engage Continuous mode, for example). Secondly, what does the main LCD display show for the top icon out of the five that make up the 'paw-print' group of ...

pentax optio w80 problem
If it`s under warranty you ought to take it back to the retailer. Failing that try Johnsons Photopia ( Pentax Authorised Repairers ) Can`t be more helpful, sorry. Cedric

Dropped K20D
Hi I dropped my one year old K20D on the back garden step, the ‘TAX’ of the Pentax logo took the full brunt of the fall and has been pushed in slightly and to the right,(viewed from back) the flash still pops up but needs slight persuasion to stay down, once down its fine. Looking at the top fro...

AF MF Switch problem K200D
Hi, The AF/MF switch on my K200D has started to give problems. If set to MF it does not always disconnect the focus drive and this is happening more frequently. With the lens removed and operating the switch the drive sprocket does not withdraw flush with the lens mount when set to MF, it only mo...

curser control on computer
The Logitech Marble Trackball is superb. I would never go back to the old type of mouse. I have 3 of them. You move the ball with the first and second finger and click with the thumb. The third finger operates the mouse right click on the right hand button. Edit: . (also ebay, but I wouldn...

curser control on computer
It's down to personal preference, but the reason I recommend the Logitech Trackman Wheel Mouse is that your hand/wrist is firmly planted - and stationery - on the main body of the Trackman and the desk, only your thumb needs to move. This is a great way to limit exposure to repetitive stress on th...

Hi I am new here my pentax SFX
Hello and welcome to the forum. Your Mum is right in so far as film cameras are quite expensive to run (feed with film, get pictures developed, etc) compared to digital models, but the end results can be just as good - if not better in some cases! If you'd like to have a go at running some fil...

Losing EXIF data
As a random thought, what happens if you re-import the photo back into Lightroom and save it from there?

Losing EXIF data
As a random thought, what happens if you re-import the photo back into Lightroom and save it from there? Might work but it's more work though and come photoshop must be able to do it right? :(

Losing EXIF data
There are programs that let you save or strip off the EXIF Data and put it back later. PhotoMe seems to have a menu item for it, but there are probably better programs specially for that purpose.
