Beware of grannies :)

My Gramma was like a kung-fu master with a broom. When she reached for her broom, all my uncles and cousins (and I) would run. I saw her chase a black bear out of the trash one time. Poor thing didn't even see it coming, It was busy nosing through the trash when Gramma reached for her broom. My c...

BBC video article on amateurs selling photos

I love the touch shooting feature in live view. Simply compose the shot, touch on the screen where you want focus and the camera automatically AFs and takes the shot in one go That would be very useful even on a DSLR.

BBC video article on amateurs selling photos

Camcorders have had touch screen focus, zoom etc. for years. Very poor taste by the BBC to put together such a misleading article no doubt they will receive hundreds of complaints from the pros for trivializing their creative skills in the way that they have done. How about a reduction of £20 ...

Mirrorless...

even the rangefinders are using too many expensive optical parts.... reality of Evil class cameras is they are cheaper to manufacture, and do both photos and videos well. Panasonic has the right idea. Sony Vex has the the right idea. Pentax needs to enter this market with the right tool. a pr...

Street portraits of strangers

Very nice heads up on this. I wonder if I can get away doing this. He's bald, and I've got long hair with a beard most of the time. LOL Regardless, I think this idea is something I might consider "copying" off of him. How to do it? Just off the top of my head, I'm thinking of: * Bringing a ...

Gallery questions

I love using the Gallery and visit it every day if I can there really are some great pictures posted. One improvement I'd like to see is a method of playing members' pictures in a slide show. I really have no understandiung of how these things work and it may not even be feasible, but I'd love to...

Pentax Interview...

Very true! :lol: Interesting to see them suggesting the possibility of re-releasing the FA645 lenses in Europe again - they must have found a way around the toxic solder problem. :D Just like getting TEL away from petrol, lead is out of solder. All good? Well the benzene levels increased drama...

"and in the red corner"

It has been below -30 c all week. it is cold outside. What else have I got to do?:P I used to love those temperatures. At the time,(back end of the 80's near the Urals) I had my trusty MX and 40mm pancake with me. Kept it in an inside pocket prior to each shot as I was mindful of the batteries and...

Suffered the same lack of motivation so far in 2011, found a good trawl through the archives has helped - shots I'd like to re-take, places I want to revisit in different weather, at different times of year etc. Made a Plan A (outdoor) and Plan B (indoor) for tomorrow so out with the camera regardl...

Lost interest ?

Weather? Check this out: https://www.pentaxuser.com/forum/topic/dull-but-nice---ullswater-25806/p-0 But I agree. In 2010, based on my archives, I think I had a month away from my camera. I couldn't believe it. I gues it's human nature. We tend to change focus. I got hooked back on Anime during...
