New York - What to take? Any problems?

My biggest quandary wouldn't be what to take so much as... what to bring back!

NEW VIDEO SHOT ON THE K5 BY MYSELF

It plays for me. Vimeo uses flash, just like Youtube :roll: I had to turn HD off though it was taking too long! Nice video, the glare and out of focus bits look cool! As for the music, I can't resist saying it: ........Nice!

NEW VIDEO SHOT ON THE K5 BY MYSELF

@Don: No major issue, I just need to find a serial number which works lol. Your video was nice, very vibrant... you do much motion graphics? I have never heard of Vegas Bretti, completely new to me, it's all about using what you feel comfortable with, but if you are doing work which may need to b...

Monitor Calibration

Might just be worth noting that just because you can see all the grey shades, doesn't mean the monitor is properly calibrated. It's a start, certainly, but by no means the whole story. I only started getting decent prints back from online printers after I calibrated mine with a Huey.

special delivery royal mail

You have to wait something like 21 WORKING days before you can claim. They are still clearing the pre christmas back log so it could still arrive.

One for the ladies

It's Cafepress, which if I recall correctly means that all this stuff is made from user uploads. So upload a pic of your k5 mode dial, sit back, wait for the millions to roll in :D

LBA control - new year resoultion

..... the 50-135mm gets little use with the 60-250mm around. However I do like the F2.8 on it on occasion so haven't made up my mind on that one yet. This is the main reason why I haven't just sold the 50-135, the 2.8 keeps it hanging around, and wondering if having a K-5 will negate that completely...

What is photography?

I'll give you an example... there was a news report a while back depicting some instances where completely unaltered images were found to have been deliberately misleading... turns out one woman and one man appeared repeatedly in photos released by agencies representing the Palestinians. (you can g...

What is photography?

My father used to work for AP and DPA and always said to me that the 'true' picture is only in the eye of the photographer. But even then a picture can tell a completely different story when taken at the same time by someone else just 10m to the left or right. A picture is very subjective and it ...

What is photography?

not just photoshopping: it has been bloggers that caught the mistakes and called the "Legitimate" news agencies out on fakes they might never have owned up to out of simple embarrassment. You do not need photoshop to make a fake or misleading statement with a photo. Indeed. During the gen...

Computer problem

Try removing the physical disk from its case and attach it directly to a spare IDE/sata port on your PC. If you still can't access the data it will be a problem with the HDD but this is usually the controller board on the back of the HDD and rarely the platters. Almost all data is recoverable even ...

Computer problem

When you say 'Your computer won't work when the external drive is attached', do you mean that it won't boot? If so, most likely cause is the boot order setting in your BIOS. Most desktop computers are set something like this: Boot Priority 1) Optical Disk Drive 2) External USB device 3) Inter...

Computer problem

Ian, I presume it is a usb external drive with or without a power supply unit. Have you tried plugging the drive into another port on your pc? If so do you have the same problem? If you do then the external drive is at fault. It might be worth checking the pins on the usb ports and plug to make sure...
