Stolen Camera Finder
I had my camera stolen the other day, and am pretty intent of doing what I can to - if not not get it back, then make it is difficult as possible for the thief to sell (which I suppose he will be doing - see, I "know" who the guy is). You wouldn't believe the circus I have been through - I'll tell t...

Stolen Camera Finder
Bad news, Joel, I hope you get the camera and lens back. Surely if you know who nicked it, it should be relatively easy?

Stolen Camera Finder
The plot thickens! I am now back in Denmark, and telling my mother about the the incident she explains that she recently saw a documentary on the Cambodian police. Apparently, they routinely do what they did to me: refuse to investigate the theft and instead spend all their energy proving it is a ca...

Go mad with Street Shots
Tricky stuff. Do we have the nerve to get in close with a wide angle lens? This style is intimate and intrusive. Standing further back with a telephoto lens is less intimidating, but more remote and detached. Confidence can be built though by starting off at events where people expect photogra...

Go mad with Street Shots
First all thanks to you all that have helped.:D I started this link so people could see street photography done in a different way by a guy called Bruce Gilden, at first I thought he was mad, and that’s way I put it on the pentax site so you all could see. I have been on about doing some street p...

How much stock?
We have no local Pentax dealers here now since the closure of Kamera Photographic in St Helen's a few weeks back, not a brilliant shop but at least they did stock Pentax. The other day I had to drop me son off in Liverpool and decided while I was there to pay a visit to the new Jessops shop, walk...

How much stock?
Harrisons in Sheffield is a big shop and have the pro (and full frame) Canikon models. I saw them last time I was shopping for a new Lowepro bag. The only Pentax stock was a used KX and some ME Supers, popular with art students, I was told. The shop clearly had time for Pentax but thought it some...

Anyone sell at craft fairs?
do you really make a bit of cash when you sell a print? If you sell it for cash, then yes. If you sell it for a hamburger, then you make a hamburger. Next question.... G To be fair the question did really ask for that!! back on track... I've now looked into a couple of local cra...

Yes, it's possible. When Rollei had TLR cameras and Leica their full rangefinder system there were all sorts of weird and wonderful add-ons and gadgets but none of them really were all that elegant. Nor could they disguise the shortcomings of those systems. They were swept away by the SLR desi...

I think the DSLR's days are numbered.....it's an archaic design and as for us old farts who think we know what a camera should look like, well, we are not going to inherit the earth. Hybrid designs make a lot of sense. Where Pentax has the advantage is in their committment to backwards compatability...

need help again please
1. Nice but the straggly tree at the top might be considered distracting. 2. The out of focus foreground distracts slightly for me, no particular subject. 3. Lots of mood to the light and the colours - more 'feel' of the place. The tree itself is the subject.

Wedding shots of Pelvis Greasley?!?!? Oh, hold me back... Perhaps he was talking about welding shots of Elvis. As he ordered his Battered sausage and curry sauce he did mention he now worked in the local Autobody shop.

Pentax/Ricoh forums ?
I would love it if images taken with Ricoh cameras were permitted on this site. I've owned Ricoh compacts for over thiry years, going back to the 500G rangefinder which still works (I think). My current compact is an R7 which I enjoy using but has seen little use since Mrs C. cought me a K100D a...

I see Q
I think Pentax fans are going to be more interested in the images of the K1 than scrutinising the Q's capabilities. Well actually i'm thinking it would be a fun camera to have besides the DSLR. A k1 would merely replace the K5. :wink: What strikes me is there is still quite a decent amount out o...

k to manual mode for dslr
I recently cut the aperture pin that protrudes out from the mount on one of my old k mount lens so I could change the f stop settings manually (like m42s) to use on K10. Am thinking of modifying all k's so can use like a manual lens in AV mode. Does that hurt the resale value of lens? Also have s...
