K20D versus Nikon D300
I take your point, but RAW always needs PP. It's part of the process. We are trying to see what the camera is capable of producing at the final stage. Well okay but to are so much variables and how things might turn out. And how can you be sure you did the best thing with a photo and are they sti...

K20D versus Nikon D300
DX & FX you mean APS-C & FF right? Well Pentax only has APS-C sensor at the moment and it was you starting to talk about a FF model so if you can do that why can't I throw in a MF in the mix? If you don't want movie mode on your DSLR I think you're unlucky since it seems that 90% of the DSLR fro...

K20D versus Nikon D300
So according to you a Hasselblad H3D isn't a DSLR? Medium format only refers to the size of the film/sensor, the Hasselblad H3D use a mechanical mirror system and pentaprism to direct light from the lens to an optical viewfinder on the back of the camera, that is what a SLR is right. The descusi...

K20D versus Nikon D300
Paul, If you feel that the K7 is the wrong size for you, and you need better AF than the K20D, then you really have no choice. What I am arguing with is the often not very good photographers who buy into a new system on the basis of paper specifications or forum rumours thinking it will make t...

" please post a good comparison as GL suggests although I guess that means getting an M42 to Nikon adapter - we could have a whip round". Ken M42/Nikon glassless adapters do not exist due to registration distance problems (correct me if I am wrong please someone!) The adaptors that include glass ...

Well Tel, it is getting a bit boring now, we could talk about the K7 as I had a feel at one the other day :cry: :lol: Did it make you want to part with £1000+,Or just enough to wait for it to come down in price:wink: Good job he didn't there's a few K-7's with sensor faults, a member has a topic on...

K20D versus Nikon D300
I think Pentax should halt research on sensor and mp and should concentrate on autofocus. The colours they produce are the best imo and are weather sealed so thats another bonus over most. If they could just get the af as good as the d300 i am positive pentax would become much bigger than they ar...

[quote:3496ace15f="loskeran"]There are bound to be faulty ones,as with all makes, they don't test as much as they used to.:( But how many components do DSLR have against SLR so ain't so sure thats fair Stefan try a Praktica "b" series for parts in a camera:wink:[/quote] The sensor alone in the K7 h...

k200 vs k20
Hi Paul, You asked about the 18-55 kit lens... They are well regarded and worth getting at the same time as a body as the prices of body+lens are often only a small percentage greater than body only. The quality of kit zoom lenses is masses better than zoom lens of 10/15 years back and can ...

k200 vs k20
NOTE the focal length does not change and the depth of field does not change only the effective angle of view of the lens. Good for 50% though since the circle of confusion with APS-C sensor is smaller the DOF is smaller as well. The 18-55 would give the same angle of view on digital that your 28...

k200 vs k20
This is a thing that's often misquoted, but smaller formats have more DOF for a given field of view and that's because the focal length of the lens to achieve that field of view is shorter. An extreme example is that a Minox with its 15mm standard lens has such an immense FOV that it doesn't need...

The DOF matter is going further here Just want to carry it on to see if I got it right in my mind since John suggest I've it wrong so I probable am though but don't know why yet.

K-7 Returned with faulty sensor
I had to return my K-7 today with a faulty sensor :( It's the same as has been reported . Shot a five minute video and then subsequent photo's shot immediately afterwards have the solid green stripe down the frame. It's most easily seen if you heavily underexpose a shot of a dark surface. The effec...

K-7 Returned with faulty sensor
That's very disappointing for you, so I hope you get your replacement soon. There's nothing at all showing up as a green stripe on my monitor though - where is it? Is my monitor too dark to see it?

Not very good have you taken it back to the shop and changed it or sent it for a repair?
