Quick opinion wanted about wedding album
Not the answer to your question but... If you are going to take wedding photographs you have to spend a lot more attention to detail, my observations are from left to right: Man should have his jacket buttoned to hide his ill-fitting trousers, lose what he's holding in his right hand and be tu...

COME ON PENTAX WHERES YOUR full-frame
Thing is once people are throwing down 1.4k for a new body, and splashing about several grand on lenses, stumping up for a FF body becomes more attainable. I suspect people look at the kit they have accumulated, convert it into pounds shillings and pence, and conclude that the FF camera they thought...

I think michaelblue is more making the point that sometimes people find they want to complain about what they can't buy, but when suddenly they can buy then they don't. At that point they find a new objection. It's well known to people to sell. I'd buy it if you had a 600mm lens...well, when the ...

I don't see what all the fuss is about? What is wrong with the K5? If Pentax were to bring out a FF sensor, we will know long before hand by the new lenses that would be appearing on the market. There is no fuss I asked if or why Pentax are making a Full Frame and there not so if you would like a f...

If people don't like the Z1-p with it's dual wheels, similar to a digital SLR plus considering that it can be bought for about 1/10th of it's original cost there's no way they are going to like anything bigger than a K-5 :oops: Don't expect people to act sensibly. The MX for instance hasn't eve...

Logic may not come into it much when we decide we like something. It's more likely to be a logical choice when it's made for commercial reasons, but for pleasure we surely just use what appeals to us? I know someone who bought Rolleiflexes because he thought that's what professionals used. Then h...

Our two K-5s focus without any problem in light which is lower than our eyes can focus in. There's a lot of discussion about AF, but we really don't know how fortunate we are that it's as slick as it is. By comparison, manual focusing is very variable as our eyes are very poor at selecting the po...

I think it is all a question of finances. In reality, the number of people who would actually shell out for a Pentax FF body and lenses may not be sufficient to make such a project worthwhile. I'm sure I read a while back that Sony's FF line wasn't particularly profitable (if at all). I'd hazard ...

If you look at the Queen of Hearts Card on the dpreview page at 3200ISO the K-5 is way better than anything else :shock: Unfortunately that's nowhere near as thrilling as spending a load of money! :shock: :wink: I think the card might be behind the focus plane of the Nikon. Here's another part ...

The whole test (and the majority of 3D tests that you see on the internet) is absolute nonsense :shock: The DOF at 1:1 pixel level is mm's so anything other than a flat board is going to be comparing either two points that are OOF or possibly 1 point in focus and the other OOF..... also they ...

The image has gone, so do you want to put it back in place Cliff, or shall I remove the thread? The thread makes little sense without the image?

Hi Owen, Stephen is right. Good to take a lot of photos at such an event and you've clearl;y had fun. Editing down will enhance the impact of a set. You could include rejecting vehicles part out of frame unless intentional, near duplicates, soft focus etc. Then decide which best tell th...

Putting bugs in the fridge -
Put a caterpillar back in the fridge (he was the lucky one I ate/bit its sibling in half) I figured it was okay after 4 days in there, I figured another 1/2 hour would be fine, the wife didn't agree so it got put out for the birds to try and find.

I made a film about taxidermy and the taxidermist took a fox from a deep freeze, it had been in it for some years. As it defrosted the fleas sprang back to life! His technique with small reptiles like frogs w as to take live ones, give them a whiff of ether and them cover them in liquid silicone....
