Getting JJC RM-E7 working with Pentax K-R
Don't know about the K-r. Do you set the drive mode on the back of the camera (single shot, continuous shooting, etc)? If so change to remote

Getting JJC RM-E7 working with Pentax K-R
Have you set the drive mode to remote? - you do that with the four way controller on the back - press the up arrow, then select the little remote symbol - you have a choice of with or without 2 second delay. Press OK. The red light will flash to indicate it is in standby mode for the remote. Does...

Watermarking my photos
As Gwyn's links show, its built in at the export stage. Curious as to why you're suggesting using extra software and adding to the workflow Kevin? Aperture can do batch on export built in, you can also have masses of presets set up as well. Why export them then use another piece of software t...

Billingham bag-canvas or FibreNyte?
Fibrenyte is more waterproof and slightly lighter but the Canvas is good enough and just works in a different way, you would have no worries with either. the Fibrenyte ones tend to pill up when you first get them on the back of the bag where it rubs on your clothing (Depends on your clothing though)...

CP+ 2012 - Interview with Hiraku Kawauchi of Pentax Ricoh Imaging Company
Niche is fine and has seen some success for Pentax (645D, Q).... both products which have fed back technology into the more mainstream DSLRs and probably been relatively profitable for the company.

CP+ 2012 - Interview with Hiraku Kawauchi of Pentax Ricoh Imaging Company
Niche is fine and has seen some success for Pentax (645D, Q) How do you define success? Remember I’m not talking about IQ or handling here, merely business success defined as sustainable profitability. Now I know next to nothing about the MF market and bet the same holds true for you also, but i...

CP+ 2012 - Interview with Hiraku Kawauchi of Pentax Ricoh Imaging Company
I'm new to the current Pentax line (having lost interest in all things digital since Pentax had a slow start), although I have loads of film gear. A couple of weeks ago I found a BJP article about the K-01 and did a bit more reading, then I found out that Ricoh had bought the company, a week late...

CP+ 2012 - Interview with Hiraku Kawauchi of Pentax Ricoh Imaging Company
It had passed by japers45 and I did ask after that for no personal attacks. Attack the argument, not the person. If we keep mentioning things like this, they come back to the top of the attantion list and niggle people all over again. I think the appropriate phrase might be Let Sleeping Dogs L...

K5 what settings please?
I am a newbie to my K5, and use the auto settings. However having played with all settings with mixed out comes. I am after some advise re what settings for flying in my micro-light. I fly around 1500ft and have a perspex window to focus through and really take landscape shots. Please any advise...

K5 what settings please?
I assume that if you are flying then you will need a fairly high shutter speed to freeze the movement. I personally would try ISO 400 and Aperture Priority at F8. This should result in giving high shutter speeds, whilst getting a good performance from the lens. You may have to focus manually at a...

K5 what settings please?
I've read somewhere (possibly on ths forum somewhere) about using a black hood that presses up against a window, thus eliminating back reflections. I can't remember whether it was in respect of flying or coach travel, but I guess the same problems apply. regards Bernard

K5 what settings please?
I've read somewhere (possibly on ths forum somewhere) about using a black hood that presses up against a window, thus eliminating back reflections. It does, but adds the risk of camera shake from the transmitted vibrations. Not too bad if the air is smooth and you're not flying, since you can hol...

I'm beginning to take this photography lark seriously.
Excellent, next time I'm on my way to Skye I'll drop by. Here's the advice to pay for it! A fast modern computer should run Photoshop just fine. I'm using a fairly basic machine with Windows 7 and 3GB of RAM. Photoshop 5 runs smoothly and without problems. I have a 1TB hard drive, plus 500GB and ...

I'm beginning to take this photography lark seriously.
I bought my new computer from Dell. I chose the Inspiron 620 with an i5 processor simply because it gives me plenty of "growing" space. I didn't go for a fast or fancy graphics card - I don't play computer games that need such a thing. Straight off the shelf, delivered to my door. Extremely happy w...

I'm beginning to take this photography lark seriously.
If you really want a new computer, then +1 for SSD. I have Windows 7, Photoshop, Visual Studio and Office installed on mine - these are my most frequently used large applications, and it makes an enormous difference to boot and load times. But although I wouldn't go back, it's more a nice-to-h...

I'm beginning to take this photography lark seriously.
Shaky, how did you measure or calculate your 300W? I measured it with one of those power meters bought off Amazon for around £20; cheap and cheerful but does the job and is really quite useful. Actually the 300W consumption is something of an average. When I got the meter I was shocked to find t...
