K5 @ ISO 12800
I bet your glad you bought the K-5...... try doing that with a K20D :mrgreen: Unbelievable quality for such a high ISO :shock: I am glad, what I find most surprising, and not a little disturbing, is that some of these images looked rubbish on the rear screen of the camera, to the extent that I al...

Ot, sorry I do especially miss all the festivals and suchlike. Aren't you planning on moving back sometime? If I weren't such a wimp I think I'd be looking to move there.

K5 @ ISO 12800
Aren't you planning on moving back sometime? Yup but not for a few more years yet. :( Anyway, meant to add to my previous post: Great shots Peter, really shows what the K-5 is capable of ... and the subject is pretty good as well :D

K5 @ ISO 12800
What noise reduction software did you use on the flamenco pics? Processed only in Lightroom 3, then output as JPG, into Picasa for posting to the web. Picasa changes the colours very slightly. Annoying. PP work - Cropped & rotated as required, reduced exposure a tad, a bit of highlight recovery, ...

K5 @ ISO 25600
For a Pentax only user any of the Pentax cameras with good High ISO capability is a must. The K20D is almost unusable with a 300mm lens for birds in the shade at 400ISO. A K-x as a second camera would probably work. In a few years we will look back and say how did we manage to struggle alon...

K5 @ ISO 25600
I never go above 800ISO, but I see a massive difference. The amount of under/overexposure you can pull back is unbelievable. Smeggy managed 6 stops :shock: I've managed 1.5 stops which was from almost black to correctly exposed. On the K20D anything dark just went very noisy when you tried to lighte...

They have an almost imagined feel to them. How do you stop your tripod sinking? I nearly lost a £1000 video camera a while back as the wash undermined the legs. :shock::shock::shock:

BTW, for those wondering what the easiest way to mount such a filter to your camera.... if your lens has a petal hood... simply mount the hood on reversed, as you would for storage, focus manually, then use two small rubber bands to hold the filter onto the lens hood......:wink:

Does this mean that their #8 would be a better approximation for a 10 stopper??? That I can't positively advise but I can provide the following :- #8 has a percentage pass of 0.061% to 0.61% in the visible spectrum it has a percentage pass of 0.0003% @313nm and 0.025% @365nm in the UV it has a ...

Unless you have a specially modified camera IR & UV response is very much less than visible. So the variations with non-vissual light are not significant. I have a bog standard K10D and have lifted the figures from a photocopy from the manufacturers and compared their figures with a table from Wiki...

Good stuff K10, you could ship some of that sun out to the UK, put some garden furniture out and it's rained ever since. I'll be taking some sun back in a couple of weeks. Just keep an eye on the weather in mid August. Isn't that just 'normal' weather over there? :D I presume it's Fremantle. D...

#1: A few quite large parts of the image look blown out (although I've not checked to see if this is really the case). #2: Eyes don't quite seem in focus (the focus point seems to be on the body somewhere). #3: Struggling to find the area of focus. Composition is a little static (horizontal fl...
