Where would you like to revisit to get those fantastic shots?

Like Smeggy I too would love to go back to Dubai. I went there about 10 years ago with a film SLR - to go back with my K7 or possibly a K5 and perhaps a monopod would be great - whether I actually make is debatable. I would make more desert visits - especially at sunset and also capture the amazing ...

Where would you like to revisit to get those fantastic shots?

Oh I forgot Joshua Tree! I'd love to go back there, though since the fire it isn't what it was I understand. No Peyote or GD for me though :wink:. So many places in California I'd like to revisit. I'd add another couple of weeks onto my rte 66 trip to visit some of them. One place I nearly go...

ANY USE DVD PLAYER

My brother uses a portable DVD player to view his pictures as a slide show. I've no idea what the make is or if he can "liveview" his camera with it but I shall see him over the weekend and ask him and report back regards Bernard

ANY USE DVD PLAYER

The OP wasn't making that point ;) They are using a regular portable DVD player that has an AUX video input as a battery powered monitor for in-the-field use - moving what would be displayed on the back panel LCD to a larger screen :D Matt

ANY USE DVD PLAYER

Hi Puma, Reporting back - My brother has a Wharfdale DVD player. His camera is a Sony Bridge which doesn't allow "live view" (is that the correct term)? I thought my K10D did but we could't figure out how to get it to function either so not much help I'm afraid. sorry Bernard

lens question

................I bet my mate could get world class results with that 58mm lense...................... That is the answer then, ask your mate with the Nikon gear to stick this £11.95 adapter lens on the front of his camera and take a look at the results. Then stand back and be shocked.

lens question

A while back there was a series on BBC4 where three photographers were given wildly different cameras (usually a digital medium format, a top-of-range compact and a mobile phone) and given a project. All the photos were shown at the end of the programme and the mobile phone guy turned in far better...

lens question

Alright, time to come clean PentaxExpert. This must surely be wind-up. Who are you really? Tim, I'll have a go. Since his first thread my theory is that is a Forum member who was banned a while back... Sort of revenge. But I must say that these threads are among the most active. And amusing, i...

lens question

Now look what you have done PE, another 1st post! Thank you for a very good laugh. PE is not sending us up. He is merely questioning the wisdom of our beloved Pentax and their decision to make a toy lens. As one who has already tried this crap I fear he might be right! -just the 58 and ...

lens question

The last time I visited the camera store that rhymes with “press - ups”, the display shelves were that thick with dust, I just walked straight out again. Not been back since. Top tip, if you are visiting one of these stores, take a duster with you. Take care. Chris R.

What does this really mean??

Strictly speaking, they need at least some level of release to back up their servers, migrate them to new hardware etc. It may be that they're trying to cover their backs for ill-defined stuff they might possibly do in future rather than have to issue new T&Cs each time.

SRS - unbelievably good service!

I bought my Pentax K-x from SRS in person 2 years ago and found it to be a thoroughly pleasant experience. Having dropped my K-x on the kitchen floor I was delighted to find that it was covered by my household accidental cover. At last after thirty years I can get some money back! So a replacement ...

SRS - unbelievably good service!

It was nice to see that 'Letter of the Week' in last week's AP was in praise of SRS who fixed something and didn't charge. I've sent my FA50 1.4 lens to JP solutions for repair and while I was at it sent my Z-1p for a service (hopefully taking advantage of the PU discount). Estimate for the lens wa...
