Why did you choose Pentax?
Not sure this qualifies as a great pic, but it's the shot that won me a K1000 (plus a couple of lenses) in the tale related a few posts earlier. This was taken with Spotmatic and Takumar 250mm prime, from quite a long way back in the crowd at Paddock Hill Bend, Brands Hatch. It was a support race at...

Why did you choose Pentax?
Good thread! My father had a Pentax ME in the 70s and I always loved the look of their cameras when I was young - and something far more appealing about them than say my dad's subsequent excellent but uninspiring Canon T90. When I bought my first digital compact I went for an Optio 450 (now used by ...

I try to stay logged in to flickr all the time. If I ever get logged out, it takes numerous attempts with the correct username and password to get back in. The annoying thing is the log in screen says "Hello Alan " or something like that. So it knows its me :evil::twisted:

Camera Fairs - Are they a thing of the past?
Focus on Imaging in March (Birmingham NEC) http://www.focus-on-imaging.co.uk/ Unfortunately, looks like Pentax is a no-show for this year. Shouldn't be a problem considering they were just bought by Ricoh, Canon wasn't there last year. Yes, I think they are a thing of the past. These big ones...

Camera Fairs - Are they a thing of the past?
I think I might go to Wolvo's next fair (Feb 5th). I won't take my camera though, my lenses might 'catch fungus' from all the ancient dusty glass on sale! If it is full of grumpy old farts... well I'd probably rather that than the over-eager sales reps at something like Focus on Imaging :wink:

Camera Fairs - Are they a thing of the past?
Focus on Imaging in March (Birmingham NEC) http://www.focus-on-imaging.co.uk/ That's not a camera fair. The OP meant places where small traders and individuals go to sell stuff, often used. G I didn't mean that, no... However... That might be fun... Are decent discounts really availible from b...

Camera Fairs - Are they a thing of the past?
Hey I just got back from Wolverhampton, it was good fun. The stallholders were great, despite no-one really paying much attention to the 'please ask before handling' signs on some stalls. I managed to restrict myself to buying a few filters and a little AF160 flash - I could so easily have come back...

Lightroom 4 beta is available for download.
Read elsewhere that you can't import Lightroom 3 catalogs into it. Which is unfortunate, if wanting to try it out for real. On the other hand if its buggy, at least your back catalog is protected. Think I'll just stick :wink:

I'll be back to see how this thread progresses. Off to watch Edwin Drood Bernard I'm sure it will prove less of a mystery than how to move photos around via wifi. Enjoy!

Update. We've still virtually no further than we did back in January. I've downloaded and run/failed to run no end of Apple stuff on my PC. My wife has no end of apps free/paidfor on her iPad. The photographs/recipes etc remain firmly on my PC and apart from a purty screen, Gartmores "spen...

I said it before and I'll say it again - and you seem to have found it works DROPBOX. I'm just back from a week in Dublin - took about 40 pics [ mainly liturgical so I'm not posting them .] I downloaded to the Pad using the SD Card adapter and they appeared miraculously in PHOTOS, BUT I ...

Is this Possible
Back a few years ago when I owned a Nikon D70, I came across a tip from a fellow D70 user that a £3 universal TV remote (the cheapest one in the Argos catalogue) could be easily programmed to fully remote control my D70. I bought one, and indeed it worked as he said, and I used it successfully to t...

Good source for a new photographer
I may say it a lot, but this forum has helped me to no end with information about my K-R. Because of this I would like to try and give a bit back and while I may only be a beginner, I hope other new members might benefit from this. Everyone who's been on here probably knows I'm fairly new worki...
