Losing EXIF data
Will try the work arounds then. I just find it silly that an advance program as photoshop has such a problem :( It's amazing how many adavanced/expensive programs (even Windows OS itself) still have stupid bugs in them going back years. The marketing people just couldn't care less. It used to ...

Pentax Photo Gallery
Hello, I tried to get the response in a thread relating to the subject some time ago, but didn't so I thought I'd create a new topic. Do you know how a user can create an account in the Pentax Photo Gallery? (http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/home). I sent them a message, but received no response ...

You just send them a message, and they get back to you with a login and password. It only took a few days when I did it, it sounds like your email has been mislaid. I would just send another one :)

A powerful LED Lenser torch gives plenty of light to focus by.

How do I get dust out of my zoom lens?
How do I get dust out of my FA 28-105mm f3.2-4.5 zoom lens? There's a speck of dust on the element which rotates when the focus ring is turned. This element seems to be near the front of the lens. The speck shows up loud and clear on every shot taken with this lens and has rendered the lens unus...

lens repair
Just stick a dispute into Paypal if they refuse to accept it back. No returns accepted only covers the seller if the buyer has a change of mind .. I think it even says on Ebay that if the item is faulty then the payment can be reversed.

Tamron 17-50 test shots
This isn't troubleshooting as such, but it certainly doesn't belong in "your photos". I just bought a Tamron 17-50, and wanted to post some of the test shots to make sure that it's OK focuswise. The traditional chart test was 'inconclusive': it seemed to FF pretty badly (ie the +80mm mark on the cha...

Tamron 17-50 test shots
Mine needs the lens adjust on the K-7. Most other lenses are fine. Tim, you and me all have similar issues with the lens, but once adjusted the results seem pretty good. The problem is that it's (more or less) fine at other focal lengths but inaccurate at 17mm. It's going back tomorrow because I d...

Tamron 17-50 test shots
Being widest, more things will be in focus at 17mm, also there is slight barrel distortion at 17mm. Is it something that appears on tests but will be inconsequential in real life? (just asking, your money, your choice). You have other lenses for critical close 17mm range , 10-20 and you have 2 ...

Help with lens mount
Thanks, I might order one. Generally Yashica's are sharp especially wide open and very well made. Yashica owned Tominon/Tomioka. Their f/1.2's go for £300+ The f/1.7 can't be put back together if you modify the pin with a piece of insulation, so it's either glue it or get an adapter with a fl...

18-55mm Kit Lens Performance
Hello all I got my hands on a K-7 finally (:D / :|) and was checking the kit lens against my 16-45mm. The WR kit lens produced the top two left and right side crops, the 16-45 the images beneath. Both lenses at f8. I am disturbed by the softness on the left hand side of the WR lens. ...

18-55mm Kit Lens Performance
My experiences: (1) my first copy of the WR kit lens was so poor I sent it back, but the second one a significant step up - so good I sold the 16-45! I'm sure there is some sample variation, so I would test yours some more (preferably with a tripod, mirror lock up and static subject). (2) whe...

pentax kx
Are you not just hearing the sensor moving and the mirror going back down as you take the picture? If you take the lens off and put the camera into live view you might be amazed at just how much movement the sensor makes.

pentax kx
What I mean is the kx that I have is noisy to the km and the k7 I have but when I first got the camera it seemed to be so noisy I went back to the shop and asked them was there a fault with it?, and they tested it with one of the other kxs in the shop and said no its just the way it’s made. But sa...

Looking to get a Pentax 50-200mm f4-5.6 SMC DA ED Lens telephoto lens for wildlife photography. I am looking at the following teleconverter and can't find out if I will retain autofocus.:?: Welcome to the forum. To be honest it isn't advisable to use a 2x TC unless with a very good lens and those...

Help with exposure
Since I got my KX I seem to get dark photos most of the time. First when I went on holiday (only had the camera a week then) I thought it was me underexposing, then that it was the circular polarizing lens. Now I don't know what to think. I did a 'shoot' for a church meeting last week and fair enoug...

Help with exposure
Thank you in advance..... I shall be back to point and click.... BTW I'm using the kit lenses (18-55 and 55-300) I don't think I have the problem with the 100mm macro.... This very strange... I don't know what it can be. As for prints being darker, that comes because the screen is illuminated so...

Help with exposure
I've spent all evening looking through the pics I've taken with the camera. Apart from the disastrous dark holiday shots once I changed to multi segment metering things did improve. One set of party (outside) photos were quite good especially portraits with the 55-300 lens. The weather was bright an...
