Firmware query
Something fishy here because with my GX20, the 60-250 locks on focus impressively fast. Could this be a lens rather than camera issue?

Firmware query
I'm seriously thinking of getting a K7, focus speed on this lens is a major point. I've seen that there are some people trying to get to grips with firmware so something may happen in the future. However not sure how much I like the idea of using unofficial firmware.

Gwyn I've just looked back over some of the angry threads. All that seems to be the problem...unless I'm misunderstanding this... is the brand debates. When people are passionate about a brand they become almost fanatical. The discussion then becomes like those around political or religious pref...

I am really very sorry that you have come to this conclusion Gwyn. I really wish you would reconsider, or at least give it some time, and then come back. I have been called upon in this thread, and I don’t particularly appreciate being mentioned ‘behind my back’. I often prefer to say what I t...

Dear Amin, I understand what you are saying, and appreciate that the choice of words was a wrong one. Therefore, whilst standing by the meaning of my post, I am here apologising to Feeb, and her tutor, for the use of the word 'idiot' which was inappropriate and rude. Nathan :D Now there is...

Gwyn, Like everyone else, I am very sorry to see you go. I too have found find these recent heated debates less than enjoyable, particularly when they are so many other things in life to really get wound up about. But then I switch back to thinking about my possible competition entry and ca...

Having been (mainly) away I missed all the fuss and bother. Sorry to see you go, Gwyn, and I hope you lurk happily and re-enter the fold when you feel more comfortable again. I tried a few more general photographic fora before discovering this one, and have stuck with this one since I joined j...

You belong here Gwyn. Come back soon. I am one who needs a reason to keep coming back here, hopefully you will find a reason too. It's not all doom and gloom, those who have spoiled this forum in recent times either have, or will have very soon, left it. :wink:

It seems to me that most forums go through stages and this one is no different. A while back there were a lot of feathers ruffled (mine included) by a particularly selfish, demanding and thoughtless poster, who finally desisted and who we rarely hear from now. Since the re-design, the post coun...

Sorry to see you go Gwyn, I really wish you were'nt. To be brutally honest, I've stepped back a tad on the forum too for the last couple of weeks for similar reasons. But I'm sure things will get back to the old ways again.

I'm new here with only a couple of postings but a long time reading the posts. I've been a member of forums for many years and was a very early member of a WW1 related forum. However, as the years went by I got the feeling that things were changing on the forum so I took time out. But I returned, a...

Pentax lenses for other mounts and will we ever see a DA 11-16 ?
As far as I understand, the 10-17 fisheye, 16-50/2.8, and 50-135/2.8 were definitely designed by Pentax optical engineers. As part of the requirements for using the design Tokina are prevented from making PKA mount versions (so avoiding cross-competing). It is also highly likely that the Pentax ver...
