AF160FC ring flash will only fire on Manual Full Power
That was my first hope too, that all the contacts just needed a good clean. But I've gone to town with cleaning the contacts with as many ideas as I can think of and no success. I can be confident that the camera is not the issue, as all my other flashes still work fine in Auto mode, but I get...

Pentax announces Digital 645
:shock: Wonder what the price is going to be with a CCD like that!!! The Mamiya ZD which supposedly has the same sensor is over £8.5K :shock: http://www.dalephotographic.co.uk/mall/productpage.cfm/DalePhotographic/Mamiya%20ZD Well outside my price bracket even with a severe GAS attack Ki...

Pentax announces Digital 645
By the "K range", I mean cameras that use K bayonet lenses, and at the moment that means 35mm film cameras and digital cameras with an APS-C sized sensor. The image produced by the DA lenses is too small to cover a 35mm frame - these lenses are only designed for APS-C sized sensors. So far, mo...

sunpak 544 flash
I finally was able to speak with a sunpak rep. Apparently, the TTL functionality of the 645N is not possible with the Sunpak 544. But, the flash still can function in an automatic fashion. The flash has a sensor of its own and will output a metered flash. The reviews I've read are all very p...

Wanted - 645N body that is dead - for spares
Hi Tim, Thanks for the sensor info - I've replied to your .pdf - & yes it might come to me advertising in the magazine. Thanks for the tip. Cheers Peter

The new 645NII medium format bodied digital...
According to a PDF document I have, (PM me if you want a copy) it will be a Kodak KAF 18000CE sensor of 4904 x 3678 pixels measuring 55.1 mm diagonaly. It is also suggested that the sensor will be interchangable with future sensors of greater pixel density, ultimately up to 30 megapixels.

Tim, I'm not sure that it will be interchangable... I got the impression that by the time they release the sensor will be up to 30Mp. Presumably they know the sensor is coming, and they've got some kind of module that will still fit and work. If it's got the 22bit ADC of the K10D as well, it'll ...

It does all deepened on the accuricity of the word migrations, I think. :D But I read it as "It'll be released as an 18Mp camera, and we'll carry on upgrading (updating) the model, until it reaches a maximum of 30Mp." I don't think you'll be able to increase the resolution of the chip...

Just catching up with the comments here... the photo of the pre-production model looked good to me from a handling perspective.. I go along with the assumption that the whole camera will be upgraded with time instead of interchangeable sensors, or backs (e.g. the Blad H1,2,3 is a very expensive ...

By the time the camera comes out I think they will have moved on to 31 megapixels as standard for the camera. I expect they will use this sensor. http://www.kodak.com/US/en/dpq/site/SENSORS/name/KAF-31600_product Would be lovely. And hopefully my first ever digital camera - that is unless the...

Any hope of a pentax 6x7- 67 - 67ii digital back??
I have been doing some commercial work where the client has specified they needed it all to be shot digital. As I generally shoot on a Pentax 6x7 and 5x4 it meant hiring a whole kit in order to do so. I hired the phase one back with the V system, allowing it to go onto the back of the older 500 se...

Any hope of a pentax 6x7- 67 - 67ii digital back??
It all comes down to economics. There is a cost to doing this, and much of the cost is up-front (design, planning, tooling), and marketing. Then there's the sensor itself. Actually assembling the thing would be relatively simple and cheap. So, to recover all the up-front and necessary marketin...

Any hope of a pentax 6x7- 67 - 67ii digital back??
Cost would be the main concern if you had to produce a sensor only for the 67, however sensors are being constantly made and upgraded, the 3 main manufacturers being Phase One, Leaf and Imacon which currently only make sensors for Hasselblads and 5x4 cameras. I am hoping it will be eventually pos...

Any hope of a pentax 6x7- 67 - 67ii digital back??
I still don’t believe the cost of the sensor has much to do with someone making a door for a 67 which is compatible with digital backs. I am not suggesting Pentax make another digital medium format in addition to the 645d coming out later this year, I would just like the older 67 bodies to be co...

645D cancelled - or not
Not At ALL!!!!! From dpreview the interview http://dc.watch.impress.co.jp/cda/other/2008/03/28/8206.html The important points: * Current cameras well received and the merger dustup has settled so morale is high. Hoya supports camera business and the camera division has a great deal of inde...

645D cancelled - or not
dev_tt You believe there will be a 24x36 sensor from Pentax because you WANT to believe it, not because you have weighed up the arguments for and against. If you want your opinions to be taken seriously, you should base them on facts and logic, rather than wishful thinking. G

645D cancelled - or not
Come Kris can't you do math any more :| 45.76mm by 35.34 mm = 1617 mm2 645film = 56mm by 41.5mm = 2324 mm2 1.44X is the crop factor btw this is the sensor 1.3 fps pixels are 6.0μm (H) x 6.0μm (V)

645D cancelled - or not
Hi Kris, "crop factor" will be 1.27 for 645 lenses. For comparison it would be 0.79 for 35mm. The "old" 645 lenses will not be able to show the full potential of the new sensor and only focus manually. I don't expect the prices on those to go up all that much. I would want mostly the new lenses de...

No wasn;t getting you wrong at all - genuinely curious myself. The only spiel on the new new 645D is -Extra-large, super-high-megapixel CCD image sensor with more than 30.0 total megapixels (tentative) - Compatibility with existing smc PENTAX 645 interchangeable lenses Mamiya ZD "SLR" is ...
