AF extension tubes?
You have a good set of tubes, enjoy them in manual focus. They are like gold-dust - Kenko don't make then anymore for Pentax, and the last price when new was somewhere upwards of £120! Enjoy using them - as others have said Af isn't much use for such macro anyway Andy

Focus on Imaging 2011
Yes, I spoke to the Pentax guys at The Societies 2011 Photographic Convention & Trade show on Friday and I quote "the stand is an all singing & dancing one" The person who I spoke to had been working on the layout/design all week. This is what they had in the way of a stand I was at t...

Excellent news. Hope the Canikon uses take time to examine Pentax dSLR's and come away with more than a touch of envy!

Focus on Imaging 2011
I hope Pentax gets whatever it has been working on out to market soon... Nikon is releasing a "Pro" mirror less system soon, and rumors from Samsung as well... Be nice to see Pentax aiming for that market as well.... It is nice to see them out there marketing. That is good news... Did Hoya have a ...

Photomatix. Books? why? 5-13 shots, from complete blackness to complete whitness. Don't change the aperture, set focus to MF. Feed them into photomatix - play with the sliders. Job done. Bret

WTF: Leads to bag + my current best lead
A trip to Morris Photo in Chipping Norton is highly recommended as they have almost every bag you can think of on display to try out. Whilst I was there to buy the new tripod last week had a chance to check out the Tamrac Expedition 9X, which is on my shopping list to replace the Expedition 8X w...

HELP PLEASE! What would be a fair value of this set?
I could do with some help please. A friend of mine has just been made redundant and needs every penny he can get but would like to keep up his photography. Having bought my Samsung GX-10 set when I got my K-5 in December he put his ‘old’ and well used Pentax ME Super in ‘storage’. Now, just being ...

Am I a Terrorist? Section 44 and the powers to be!
Can I also add my disgust and my weight to the 'sue them for every penny you get' brigade. These officers have broken the law deleting your photos and should have the full weight of the law brought down on them. Most sincerely hope you can salvage the photos and then use them in a court case a...

Am I a Terrorist? Section 44 and the powers to be!
Many thanks for all your kind commends. Just be back from the football and had a phone discussion with my solicitor who I see on Monday. As long as I keep things vague and name no mames or places of ANY party involved then discussing it in a forum is OK. I also got told that section 44 should no l...

Following the link will open the home page for 'Sandboxie' which is a virtual machine(VM)software package.

Virus and Malware
The software (malware) itself seems to be described as setting up the registry to run other programs on startup. Some things to keep in mind... ONE: VMs are great. You can roll them back to a known good state and pretty much ignore ill effects by viruses. 1. Assuming you know how far to roll ...

DIGITAL OR MEDIUM FORMAT FILM
I looked at this recently when I went through a hankering for a 6x7. MF gear seems to be holding its value very well indeed (I saw battered and heavily used 6x7 bodies going for over £100). Put simply I don't think "small budget" and MF fit together, assuming you want a Pentax! The Bronica ETRS/E...

DIGITAL OR MEDIUM FORMAT FILM
I little while back I had a hankering for some real film, and really fancied medium format too. I fancied a 67ii but that was way out of my price range especially considering it was something of a whim at the time. I saw a Pentax 645 kit that was reasonably priced but it was pretty big. I was really...
