How about they produce the same (or a similar) effect in the viewfinder electronically. I use liveview a lot for focus confirm, but I don't like holding the camera like that, and the way it's set up is a pain. At least let us enlarge the central part of the image leaving the rest unaffected, Pen...

It's a lot easier than that to check a split screen. Put it on a tripod about 3 ft high. Focus on something vertical say a gap in a door/frame. Tilt the camera/tripod to the top of the door. If it still shows it's in focus..... throw it in the bin :shock: :lol:

...You could also confirm this by focusing on a box about 1m away from the camera with the split screen and then moving the box 50mm backwards/forwards and it will probably still line up indicating that it's still in focus according to the split screen. I've seen you say this before and so I have ju...

I've never actually used a Katzeye and it would be nice if they were better than other screens, although I think they are just cut from other screens. A 100mm lens will pop into focus better than say a 50mm or 35mm, possibly you don't even need the split screen with it due to the positive way it pop...

Just tried a quick test with a 50mm f/2 lens and a Super-A and MX. Opened a 35mm thick internal door so that I was looking at the thickness and face of the door at about 45deg. Had to move back to about 1.5 - 2m to get the thickness in the split image. The image lines up on the split on both side...

I have also discovered a quick way to switch back and forth between histogram and no histogram without having to scroll through all the screen display types.

Thanks also, will be useful and speedy. I must say that really the only interface frustration I deal with on my K7 is the flicking back and forwards from rec mode to playback, and the various screen options that appear when doing that. I do find I end up repeatedly pressing the playback, shutter and...

Printing Digital

cintelli67, You've got a number of things mixed up there. It's hard to know where to start with it. You are using a colour space that gives much more information than you can print, so generally this results in weak colours on your monitor and certainly so if Photoshop isn't also adjusted to be t...

Usino sdhc Memory in a pentaxuser k5

btw about SDXC, has anyone tried one of those cards in older camera's that support SDHC. When reading the papers about SDXC and SDHC it doesn't seem they are different when it comes to hardware or hardware standards so they might work in SDHC devices without a problem if the firmware isn't locked to...
