I find it very sad that a photographer is being benchmarked on his commercial value. That's like claiming McDonalds is the best food because it sells the most. Actually Smeggy - on one level I totally agree but on another - have to disagree. I think it is perfectly acceptable for a commercia...

Camera bag for travelling?
It depends how you are going to be getting about once you are there. If you want something which is cabin-baggage legal but still safe to stick in the hold then you won't go wrong with a . I give mine massive abuse, put it into the hold, sit and stand on it and generally fling it around. Yet t...

Camera bag for travelling?
Something that might be helpful is find a bag you are interested in and go to YouTube to see what videos there are. It can be surprising to see just how much you can fit into any given bag. And to add to the confusion, if you are worried about security consider a LowePro flipside. The bag ope...

"I didn't know they were still going"
I often find that people making comments like that do know about Pentax still being around it is just their back handed insulting way of trying to be clever and trying to belittle pentax without actually saying it :? This would not apply to all though :D

Carriage of lithuim batteries as passenger baggage by air
Well there's no way I'm checking my camera bag in to be thrown about and 'lost' by baggage handlers (who lost my suitcase with no trace on a trip to Rome a few years back)

Well there's no way I'm checking my camera bag in to be thrown about and 'lost' by baggage handlers (who lost my suitcase with no trace on a trip to Rome a few years back) That's just it, Dave...

Carriage of lithuim batteries as passenger baggage by air
Algi - it's not so much whether or not a battery/batteries are charged, it's more to do with chemical reaction when in contact with outside forces, whether that be OXIDISERS that spontaneously combust when in contact with air/water, etc or presents any other hazard. Remember the ValueJet disaster...

Now this is macro!!
How do they get such good depth of field at that magnification ? Stacking. Basically it involves taking multiple pictures at slightly different focus points (say work from the front backwards) and then using software to combine them into one picture.

Now this is macro!!
I have stacked live insects on quite a few occasions. Admittedly this was only 6 shots because I wanted just the antennae, eyes and head in focus but the bee was still enough for me to take loads more shots.

Focassing - Lens or Camera?
I was just passing Jessops and tried a non pentax camera. The focus was so fast and quiet that I wasn't even sure that the camera was focussing at all! It was not all roses, but it showed me what is possible. The K5ii/iis is on my shopping list (money boxes already stacking up). However, this ...

Focassing - Lens or Camera?
I think the biggest difference between my gx20 (k20d) and the k-5 is that my gx20 tends to step back and forth until focus is correct where the k-5 just locks on. Focus speed does also rely on the lens, my da35 is so fast compared to my da50-135mm. So yes body does make a difference but lens does to...

Recovery of Stolen Items
Hi all, Had a flyer given me today for a service offered by the UK police forces. www.immobilise.com It doesn't promise to get items back but it does appear (at least) to identify items if found. Cost is free, and very easy to register your property. regards Bernard by the way I have...

Holster instead of straps
The Cotton Carrier system comes with two tethers in addition to the hubs, and I don't have any system of carrying that doesn't employ, at the very least, a shoe string (tied directly to the camera's D-ring) or other tether as back up ! The shoe string, and now the black rapid I currently use when us...
