whos going for it
Not interested in "bling". Would prefer Pentax focus on the K-3 mk 3 and more full frame lenses. I won't abandon Pentax however Nikon with the D850 is not making it easy.

whos going for it
Does this special edition imply a K-1 replacement announcement is imminent? JAK. I doubt it, it's not the same as Nikon's 100'th anniversary models which i believe are still on back order unless you care for a crystal mantle piece. Besides apparently the only Pentax model slated for this year is ...

Not sure if I'm happy
HI Jak, the new lens weighs over a pound, that is a lot of weight to carry through nyc with the K-3II body. My goal was to leave the bag at home so to speak and have an all around lens for street and architecture. I was at B&H over the weekend and this is where I picked this one up. I'm going to...

Not sure if I'm happy
I think that's a fair assessment (going back to Jonathan-mac). Both my "kit lenses". DA 18-55 and D FA 28-105 are at their best from F8 to F11. The main point of a constant F2.8 zoom is that it is still "near best" wide open ....I never use my two "kit" ones wide open. It's never a real compromise f...

Asahi Pentax Black Body 'S'?
Welcome also. Wow, quite a find! I have a chrome S (it's my avatar) but considering that there were only fewer than 5,000 S models made in total, and a relatively small proportion of them being black, yours is really rare. The only difference between the S and the original AP was that the shutter sp...

What other manufacturer bodies take K mount lenses
Hey guy's, Unfortunately my Pentax Kr has given up the ghost and just won't go into focus when you switch it to AF I don't know whats wrong with it as I've tried the same lenses on my old K100D and they focus perfectly so I just can't seem to find another body that can take movie as well as stil...

Composure.
I should have taken a few photographs of the damaged mount. Whilst returning home from the Brithish Model Flying Championships on Bank Holiday Monday I stopped at Blyth services on the A1. Parked the Pajero, got out and opened the side door to get my phone off the middle seats. As I opened th...

PPG Images
Thanks for the quick responce. I'll run through and see which images I wan't and make a list, then check if I have them or not stored elsewhere. Will come back on here if I have no luck in finding the original. Think I have 4 HDD's in one computer and 3 in the spare which was my main computer for a ...

Re-sizing
I'm quite sure that it's the width that matters. In my case I never see anything wider than 532p If it's stored externally and the preview links back to the original I get the full size clicking it, but in a new tab. --

Re-sizing
Hi Peter. As you now have Lightroom I suggest you have a look at Lightrooms Export function (from the Library bottom left or RClk in any module), once you get used to it it's so easy to resize and export you won't look back.

Oh no! Not another new printer question!
Thank for the replies everyone. Sorry I didn't get back sooner, family circumstances got/are getting in the way. I will look into the Canons (wash my mouth out with soap) and see what I can find here.

Tethering
At home I always use an Eye-Fi Card, especially for the first shots to check focus, WB and exposure. By the time I walk to the computer which is in another room the JPG has transferred. I also have a Wi-Fi Extender which reaches into the garden if needed. It takes 10sec to transmit a 10MB Jpeg. ...

Tethering
Image Sync takes over live view with the added benefit of a touch screen, touch anywhere on the image and the camera will focus on that point as well as making exposure changes. You can also review the photos you have taken but the resolution stays the same as you zoom in. You have the same issues o...

35 mm trannies to jpegs
I have zillions of 35mm trannies from way back. Which gadget would Members most recommend for rendering the images as jpegs? Thank you in advance.

35 mm trannies to jpegs
As with most things, consistency is going to be a big problem (framing, colour, exposure etc.). I had a scanner that was supposed to be able to scan 4 slides in a carrier at a go - in reality only the first slide was lined up correctly with the scanner frame. Cleaning up the scan and identifying/st...

Pentax tethering for mobile
Hello, Pentax image sync is not TOO bad. It's impossible to wait for a full-res image to be downloaded, ok, but it's still something. However, I really miss the ability to be able to magnify the live view to be able to focus more precisely. Is there any software around that would let do it on ...
