Reviewing images outdoors
I had a little problem this morning while out shooting. I couldnt review the images on the rear screen of my K5ii. As there was some bright thing in the sky. We dont see too often in Manchester. So with the sun being so bright. I was struggling to check if the exposures I had,were correct. More so...

ISO in relation to old film speeds
[quote:3496ace15f="McGregNi"] Did many people use the TAv or Sv modes on their film SLRs ...? :wink: Hello Mr Processor, I would like the first six negatives pushed two stops, and rest pulled one stop please. :D Most high street processors couldn't cope with push processing at all. As to TAv and ...

My first 'event'
That does sound like gross overkill to me David! The less conspicuous he can be the better rather than looking like a tog from the press agency which could easily put the family off if the aim is just to get a few casual/candid shots. If he was being paid to formally cover a major event like a B...

My first 'event'
It's a fair question David. I think the answer is in two parts. Admittedly outdoors we could use a longer lens for candids, but they tend to look remote, simply because they are shot from a distance. A candid shot closer with a shorter lens can look more intimate as it gets close to the subject, the...

Advice sought for a trip to Oz
Very old topic that few agree on. Personally I find a lens hoods help keep out flare, offer knock protection and often improve contrast. Lens caps offer the best protection when lens not in use. A good camera bag is excellent protection too. Rocket blower before severe dust cleaning good too. ...

Advice sought for a trip to Oz
"SMC Pentax-DA Interchangeable Lens Operating Manual" page 32. Use a circular polarising filter with an autofocus camera for proper exposure and autofocusing. Interestingly, I've found that even with circular polarisers (I've tried many different ones), the 55-300 doesn't work properly with them. ...

Game changers
Like Davidwozhere - acquiring a bellows. I had no particular interest in macro before that, but with that bellows, I won a Flickr group macro competition. Then I started playing with different lenses, lighting, apparatus, made a website about it and I haven't really looked back since then.

Game changers
Game changer for me was DSLR video. Suddenly I wasn't limited to the handicam point and shoot of past years, and it's associated one fixed lens. I could introduce that cinematic depth of feel into my videos and the K-30 transformed my video look instantly. It gave me an interchangeable lens platf...

File transfer: USB cable or remove SD card?
I use a card reader ink for the fact that when the card is full it gets put away and a new one gets put in the camera so they also act as my backup storage all original Probably gose back to the film days and negatives And I even store them in a airtight container

File transfer: USB cable or remove SD card?
I always use Teracopy for file copying mostly because it will do a full verify after the copy. I use the free version and still prefer v2.3 although I haven't properly tried the final of v3. It can be set up to give an option of Windows or Teracopy on drag drop operations which is how I use it. I...

File transfer: USB cable or remove SD card?
I have always used the sd card in the computer but now I have a Mac the slot is stupidly around the back, so I thought I would try the USB cable instead. None of the cables in my oddments box had the right combination of connectors at each end so then I remembered the K50 came with a USB cable inclu...

Anything on the back? Nothing on the back unfortunately. The person who gave us the painting (brother/brother in law) died before we got the chance to ask him if he knew any of the history of this. Thanks to all who responded. I'll do what John suggested and see if there are and forums where I co...
