SRS appreciation thread
I think i did one of these a while back but they are well deserving of another :) I phoned SRS last week as i had a wedding to do this weekend and a nightclub gig next weekend (for not very much money, my tentative first steps towards making some money from my work) I arranged to borrow a Pentax...

SRS appreciation thread
Chris replaced my original K-5 ( which had bad AF in low light problems ) on a courier swap basis. Whole thing took 1 minute!!! SRS do indeed have oustanding service, but I'm not sure that "seller fulfils legal obligation to replace faulty item" can really be regarded as an example of it :P Well the...

More about Rocky cameras...
I had some dealings with Keith Rock recently. I searched for a hard to find Leica focusing adapter for Visoflex (I dabble in Leica as well as Pentax) and he was advertising the thing I wanted on his website. It was described as mint so I ordered it. His price was competitive but not cheap. It arrive...

Hoya filters - Comparisons of Quality?
I do take off and reverse hoods when in transit however and think it is here when UV (or protection filters) are also pretty useful... Lens caps do occasionally come off in the bag and although my bag is generally pretty tidy sometimes you need to pack up and leave in a hurry, and thing can rattle a...

Where to test my 300mm?
I have finally been to the Wetland Centre. It is a lovely place and feel totaly out of London! And it does some kind of macro as well! And what about the lens? Well the results are pleasantly sharp,doesn't too sharp at focus close to infinty though. Colors are nice. AF...

Why am I holding out ?
Underwhelming sensor in the K-7 and undocumented features with the K-5 (at a price), hardly inspire confidence when the K10/GX10 and K20/GX20 were so good. My first GX10 had a mirror alignment problem that caused leaning pictures (apparently quite common) and was replaced by the dealer. Although not...

Potential disaster, please help :-(
One suggestions is to try to use explorer and see if the files are .PEF or .DNG....... Had this happen to me on my old *ist D after I'd transferred the files to a card reader, a couple of hours changing the filenames back to .PEF and all was well.... Sounds salvageable, hope it is... I would e...

I'm surprised no one has suggested this yet but have you tried copying the files directly from the camera via the usb cable? Great minds think alike!...I always do,saves forgetting to put the card back in!...and I believe it might work...

Red kite - fishing!!!
For whetted appetites this is one of the out of focus shots before he grabbed the fish. It is out of focus with quality lowered and a big watermark, but just had to share. Will be spending the rest of the day trying to work out what to do with them, will keep you up to date as and when I know.

Red kite - fishing!!!
Well! The good news is that he is a creature of habit as he's just done it again!! Setup opposite the previous location but missed the shot, well out of focus unfortunately. Still you can guess what I'll be doing for the next week or two!!!

Is our Photography better?
I think I improved quite a bit a couple of years back when I first got a digital SLR and started to try and take good images rather than good record shots. Although I hope I have improved a bit over the last year I do feel my improvement has slowed down somewhat. Most of the images I personally fe...

Is our Photography better?
I believe I have improved. Certainly over the last couple of years. Looking back at some of the pics I was most proud of a couple of years ago I fear they would not quite cut it for me today. I think as well as thinking more about the shots before I take them, more than anything I know the camera be...

Is our Photography better?
I had pretty well lost motivation for the last six months. But I have just got the spark back, so it is a matter of picking up where I left off. It is just matter of sharpening up the skills again now. Gary
