What are you going to do when the SUN COMES OUT!

Wear shorts Put the rain cover back in the bottom of my Lowepro bag Charge batteries Clean lenses NOT buy those WR lenses (just yet). Believe it when it happens. (19C at 2200 hours here though in Chesterfield tonight, very odd!) Get out more!

What are you going to do when the SUN COMES OUT!

Buy a 5 stop ND filter That should put the gloom back into any photograph. Spray some water droplets onto the front lens, to make the shots more lifelike. Change the time on the camera by 12 hours and wait until after sunset to take your snaps. Exif will then suggest a daytime shot. Put th...

Where is Daniel Bridge ?

Daniel is very much preoccupied with his new offspring at the moment, and also some other committments, so hasn't been able to participate recently. He is still a member of the team, perhaps on sabattical would be a way to describe the position. He'll be back and also can always be drafted in if ...

AMD Bulldozer 4/6 core, anybody?

Hi, I have a four year old PC with the first iteraton of the Intel i7 quad core (8 core when hyperthreaded) processors. It dropped RAW processing from 40 to 4 seconds. I too have been trying to read up on what next as my PC has become troublesome. I understand the intel chips are much super...

AMD Bulldozer 4/6 core, anybody?

I've been looking at upgrading recently too from an old p4. From what I've read the I5 is the way to go, although clock speed and number of cores make some difference its the architecture of the chips that make the core I series much better. Its important to be able to keep all those high speed cor...

Back Issues

You need to drop a line to PentaxDan to enquire. I still have the remaining hard copies of the magazine, but I've only kept a small number of each now. Not all copies are available by any means.

Pentax Batteries (K-5)

Actually, now I think about it I only sent back the camera each time ... the box and accessories (including the battery) are from the original body.

Photographic Day Out

It was indeed a great day out and quite local to me. It's a regular event so keep an eye on the castle website for future happenings. #2- I spent probably 20minutes chatting to those guys and why they chose the Jacobite gear (coming from Mansfield it seemed odd). They then suggested I take a fe...

I've not posted for some time.....

I joined this site back on the 26th of January 2011 with the intentions of being a regular site visitor and had intended to buy a K7 but all of that was put on hold for just over 14 months. Suffice to say 2011 was a bad year as my Dad past away in the June after suffering with dementia. He had start...

I've not posted for some time.....

I have a son of 17 who has Downs Syndrome and probably has the mental age of about 3 or 4 and I would say the thing you need most is patience ... and lots of it. It's hard work and you get very little back considering the effort involved but sometimes, just sometimes he will do something that giv...

Saw a Pentaxian

While here back in April, easter week IIRC, there were probably over 100 people showed up throughout the time I was there and I managed to spot no less than 3 fellow Pentaxians... I even let one of them use my tripod as a gesture of fellowship. I did offer the other two but they declined.

What would/should you do?

I'm offended by someone calling India a 'bass ackwards country' Which is why we keep away from politics and religion on this site. There's enough to argue abaout when we stick to photography, so back to photography please guys before we stray too far. Thank you.
