Some Early Thoughts on Pentax.
Welcome back to Pentax! I think your wife probably might as well stick with the Kr's if she likes the feel of them, the K7 only brings weather sealing / build quality to the table, and is less forgiving in post-processing, even if you stick to low ISOs. Don't know about the 55/1.4, it's not a...

They deserve the right to refund you ... I'm a liberal guy but this is taking human rights too far ... The prints were fine - the negs were damaged. There's not much they can do to rectify that. And not just once, but every time recently. It's my fault of course - inertia kept me coming back for ...

You should complain to Peak. They deserve the chance to correct any mistakes. They deserve nothing from me. I'm not looking for a relationship, I just need a reliable, professional service. Nobody? How's the Darkroom in Cheltenham? Or better yet (cos it's closer) Davies Colour in Cardiff? I have bee...

@Spinno - nothing wrong with my cameras or film. My home-cooked b&w negs are always immaculate. As for talking to the supplier, I'm a vote-with-your-feet kind of consumer - at least, when the problems are so fundamental that I lose all faith in them. And if I provided sloppy service to my customers,...

Gimp photo editor
My question, is “Gimp” safe to down load, for example what is there motive for providing free software, which another provider will and can charge a few hundred pounds for. Is there spy ware or some other nasty that is being downloaded at the same time. The reason for my question, in my experienc...

- Some programmers do it for the technical challenge, just to show that they can do it better. - Some programmers do it as a form of advertising, and hope that one of the bigger companies will offer them a job. - Some do it until they have all the bugs out, and they have a large user base, and the...

Automatic AF Microadjustment?
Found this elsewhere. Still trying to get my head round it, but if it works as described it looks good. https://sites.google.com/site/vincenzomiceli/quantitative-micro-focus-adjustment-for-dslrs

What colour green
It shouldn't matter too much - as long as the colour chosen is not present in the object(s) in the foreground. Even lighting of the background is needed, with no shadows onto the background (ideally) nor spill back of colour onto the object(s). You'll 'pick' the colour to make transparent and can e...

Pentaxians need not apply
Damn! I'll put the RZ67 and digi back away then.

using Forum on a smartphone - tips?
Hi, Have just got an Andriod based 'smartphone' (Galaxy Ace running 2.3 / Gingerbread in case it matters) and have been trying it with the internet sites I regularly view on PC, including this. I have found this site very cumbersome but think it might be the way I use the forum on PC isn't very ...

Pentax Open Day - Saturday 19th November
Damn and blast! I'm back on Skye by the 16th. Can't really justify returning to Herts within a couple of days. Do you have these In-Store days often? Alternatively can you open a store on the Isle of Skye?

Pentax Open Day - Saturday 19th November
I wish you lads would stop rubbing it in about how near you all are to SRS. I hope to get over there myself next week, but far too early for the Pentax day. We plan to be back down in Kent after Xmas, this trip is mainly business as we are photographing a wedding in Luton on the 5th then visi...

Pentax Open Day - Saturday 19th November
Come and play with the Q, K-5, K-r and 645D and ask the good people of Pentax as many awkward questions as possible (sensible questions are also welcome!) Are the aforementioned 'good people of Pentax' the sort of types that could withstand a few choice questions about such things as the K-5 Electro...

and what to do about an otherwise mint 17-70 that back-focuses a bit more than the K-5 adjustment will permit? Why did you not return it?

Hi Chris, Back home charging the battery of the K-5 I just bought from you. Thank you for the generous price you gave me for the GX10. Glad I waited for the open day. Regards George

Pentax Open Day - Saturday 19th November
Spent a very pleasant couple of hours at SRS today, including a nice chat with Mark the Pentax guy, who seemed to be very enthusiastic about Pentax's future under Ricoh. I showed him the issue with the electronic level on my K-5, and he noted it down and assured me that it would all be fed back (...
