Holy Smeg!!!! Up in the sky...
I think stacks or long exposures might blur detail. The K-1 is pretty useful even at higher ISOs so exposure times of around 0.5 - 2 secs will give you the best structure to the lights. I was alluding to data being in the photo, and processing it to bringing out the detail and colour. Any ISO and/or...

Spots like that on an image make me want to clean the sensor... :evil: But seriously, that's a stunning photo. Steve

PENTAX 17: B&W and C41 Colour First Tests
I was sent a PENTAX 17 by a YouTube Mate who had one sent to him by Ricoh and he did s review but showed NO SNAPS -- so I have tried it with outdated AGFAPAN 25 and outdated 'TUDOR' (FUJI) 100 . I processed the AGFAPAN 25 i a Home-Made 2-bath formula after doing a 'Clip Test' of 4 frames which s...

Through the Windows of the Palm House ~ A Pentax K10D series
Beautiful shots. Let's have a colour series next please! Autumn colours should be beautiful with the CCD sensor.

Through the Windows of the Palm House ~ A Pentax K10D series
Beautiful shots. Let's have a colour series next please! Autumn colours should be beautiful with the CCD sensor. Thank you :) & it's great idea doing a coulour series, perhaps from the same location at bit earlier in the day. The camera seems to be performing best at 100 or 200 ISO. Will...

I Thought the Sun Was a Moon ~ Third Pentax K10D Series
Nice set. Have you some dust on your sensor? Just below centre on right when in portait mode Thank you - and well spotted (hadn't thought it'd be a pun). First I thought it was the sun, but it doesn't move, so it must related to the sensor. Tried the dust removal _before_ checking visually, sho...

REVISED - Tea Gardens, Munnar, India.
I really don't want to be singled out as the bad guy shooting down others' genuine efforts but I believe that when people ask for feedback they deserve to get very honest results. I hope I'm not coming over as overly critical and if I am then I apologise. I think these have toned down the colour...

REVISED - Tea Gardens, Munnar, India.
Thanks friends, appreciate your nice views and comments. Jonathan - I highly appreciate your very frank feedback on my first set and now on this one.

Playing with Old B/W Prints.
I have taken the easy rather than cheapest route and use a Plustek slide and negative scanner most of the time. For my old 6x6 and 6x4.5 negatives I use an Epson flatbed scanner. Away from the technicaties of digitising film I really loved both images. Having spent today cleaning a loco after the...

Just for fun Q S-1 First Outting
Superb ! Highlight and shadow details very well captured !! Thank you. The camera is a joy! A bit fiddly. The image quality has a certain character to it, its 1/1.7 inch sensor, produces some outstanding results considering its size and age, and the grain/noise is just delightful in comparison to st...

From the last week or so....
Shift lenses allow you to change the perspective of an image, like eliminating converging vertical of horizontal lines in architectural images. Before you say it, yes you can do these things in post with most decent software And the K3 series can do some shift (called Composition Adjustment) in live...

Why use a proper camera when you can do this with an iPhone
So why hasn't Pentax, Nikon, Canon et al produced a credit card sized convenience camera? I suspect because very few of us would buy one. There's history here. Many years ago, before camera phones took over the world, lots of people were asking Pentax to produce a digital version of the Auto 110, a ...

Woodland walk with an old friend
Thank you for all the comments - I've recently bought a KP with the aim of convincing myself to part with the K5iis but if I'm totally honest with myself the K5iis is still more than good enough for me. The KP is superior in many ways, the cropping ability from the significantly more mega-pixeled se...
