J.Peg or Raw
I looked this up for you i hope this helps! A Raw file is… • not an image file per se (it will require special software to view, though this software is easy to get). • typically a proprietary format (with the exception of Adobe’s DNG format that isn’t widely used yet). • at least 8 bits pe...

Funny colours from a SMC-P 45-125mm
Hi guys, I just got a 45-125mm and, though I haven't gotten to take many photos with it, the colours seem somewhat off.. The pinks go kind of purple and the purples go blue. I think yellow and green are ok. If I shift the hue in the 'Custom Image' menu on my K200D (currently set to 'Natural') it loo...

Funny colours from a SMC-P 45-125mm
Thanks for the replies guys, I feel like a bit of an idiot, but what better way to learn :) Right, here's take two. I've done some (nearly) side by side shots with my Sigma 17-70 at 70mm and f/4.5 and the Pentax at 70mm and f/4. I did them in RAW+jpeg and noticed there's some strange things going...

Sorry about the custom setting - looks like it's back to checking the manual!

pentax ff camera?
that fits pentax full frame lenses.... This could only happen in dreams. The register distance (distance from lens to sensor) must be the same or else you lose some focus range. Since the register distance must be the same that means the image the lens make is too small to cover the whole sensor. :...

Strap for a K10 + 400mm lens

Book Advice Please
My bible has been the Photographers Handbook by John Hedgecoe, I bought my first copy back in the 1970`s and it was always full of inspiration and advice.

Book Advice Please
Yes John they can be a bit pricey at times. Another little gem based in Alnwick itself is the charity book shop, next to the White Swan hotel. I have managed to find some very interesting and cheep books / sheet music collecting dust at the back hidden away from the usual murder & romance books. ...

Anyone use a 50mm for landscapes?
No never tied it, always used the Siggy 10-20mm fine for me. It was just another option I was considering - having just read the Photozone review of the new Sigma 8-16mm though I've just changed my line of thought 100% back to the UWA, I was considering the used DA 14mm that SRS have but the Sigma l...

What lens for full body isolation ?
Does anyone have a firm grasp on the relationship between focal length, aperture, subject distance, subject size & depth of field Basically I'm looking to do a full body portrait of a couple & whilst obviously they need to be in full focus, I'd like to blitz the background as much as possible. ...

What lens for full body isolation ?
Those calculators are handy Matt thanks. It's just working out how far away you'll need to be to get the couple in frame. I'll do some guesstimation in the back garden & work it from there. I'll be taking the shots outdoors in quite a large area surrounded by mature trees, so space isn't an issue...

What lens for full body isolation ?
Thanks again Matt, you're quicker than me on the draw today, that's really helpful. It's basically for my Nephews wedding, I've been asked last minute & whilst I'd obviously like to say no for an easy life, they can't afford a pro tog & whilst having my reservations, I'm confident that my efforts...

What lens for full body isolation ?
No worries Terry... It was more trying to glean some wisdom from those with experience, I have a fairly firm grasp of the principles, just no experience of portraits (head or full) I've told them that I'm not doing the full monty with all the arranged family & such, I just don't want the hassl...

let''s support the powers that be?
I think it is worth noting the "press" have greater protection than the public. You do not gain all rights just because you have a camera. ...although the police have a long history of threatening behaviour towards the press via the abuse of rules (both real and invented), going back as long as bot...

They were too busy harassing black people to worry about photographers back then!
