Focus ring stuck
I don't know what's happened to that, but it looks in dreadful condition. The plastic seems as though it's been damaged or deformed. By heat? Could it have been accidentally left in a hot car for example? yes John I left the lens in box for more than 6 months :(

Focus ring stuck
It looks done for to me. A replacement one might be a good answer, perhaps even with an insurance claim.

Forum Question
I have asked that it be put back on numerous occasions (along with other things that I would imagine to be fairly easy to implement). Nothing ever happened.

EXIF data
What I've noticed, is everytime I update CC, the default export settings get reset to Meta Data - Copyright only; and I have to manually set it back to ALL. Drives me nuts but Adobe claims it's not there problem; yet fails to suggest how it could be mine....

Today's (very little) brainteaser
Movie mode ? By George, I think you almost got it ! As stated above, the mode section dial was set (and locked) to TAV. However, the aircraft flying around were doing that at quite varying speeds - especially when the F22 and the Mustang did some flypasts and then were followed by much slower pr...

Do you use the viewfinder or the back viewer?

Today's (very little) brainteaser
Do you use the viewfinder or the back viewer? 99% the viewfinder - rear screen only for checking the settings.

Today's (very little) brainteaser
Hooray ! I'm pleased this has happened to someone else I don't feel so stupid now. When out to take photos with a K-3 I had a very similar problem and checked the switches on the top. When I eventually looked at the back of the camera the little switch was on video. Can only assume this was done acc...

Site very slow.
I think there have been some UK-wide internet issues over the past few days. Whether or not that was affecting EPZ and PU I don't know. It seems to back up to speed now though.

K5ll&300sdm
My K5ll keeps hunting for focus any ideas? Not sure whether it is camera or the lens has anybody else had the same problem. It does focus one in five times, Not much good when you're trying to focus on flying birds

I have a 50-135 sdm that hunts if i have not used it for awhile. I have to wind the focus ring back and forth with the lens set in AF. It's rumored the SDM motors "go to sleep" if not used regularly, so you have to wake them up. Might be worth a try

K5ll&300sdm
...Pentax DSLR's are prone to hunting on small subjects due to the AF configuration, which is aligned more to accuracy on larger subjects than it is to focussing quickly on small moving targets ..... Hope this is useful info. Regards David :o:lol: I think that should be nominated for a...

K5ll&300sdm
You haven't told us how your camera is set up (focus points, etc) nor in what circumstances you get hunting. All cameras and lenses will hunt at some time or other. For example, if it's just the bif and the sky behind it, I'd say you'd be very likely to get hunting as the system alternates be...

I think that should be nominated for an award David .... Most Euphemistic Description' of Pentax AF ever known to have been written ! :D In fact, it clearly should be adopted in the Autofocus sections of all the Camera manuals (although once translated into Japanese and then back to English agai...

K3II weird colour casts from frame to frame
My K3II threw a tantrum today and suddenly started displaying images with strong colour casts. It happened just as I passed the camera to the wife to take a snap of me and at first I thought she'd managed to press a few wrong buttons in the right order so to speak. After checking the menu setti...

FA*28-70 focussing
was checking my Z-1 before sending it off to its new home at Hampton Court yesterday and boy could anything focus - no - oh I thought the camera was broke. No, the AF switch was in manual, turned on AF and still no focussing... turns out the focus of the lens is between just before infinity and ...

FA*28-70 focussing
Is this like the 645 lenses where you move the focus ring forward or backward for AF and MF? Have you tried that?
