Just a pictutre or two
Thanks Matt, this explains the pic below. Tried to use 2 polarisers as a ND filter. As you turn one, there is virtually no difference, till suddenly it goes almost black, then total black. May try it again if I can get hold of a 'linear', then again I should just get the proper ND filter. :roll:

I'll try the mirror trick. What I did notice, is that my polariser gives the same effect as my polaroid sunglasses when pointed at a LCD display (which allso have a polarising filter in front). Turn the filter and the whole LCD goes black.

Replacement Lens/bayonet Caps?
Watch out for Hama lens caps. I used to have a bunch of these (7dayshop sell them very cheaply) for my various lenses. I have no stopped using them after an incident. My Dad's 28mm SMC-M was in his camera bag with UV filter and lens cap on (both Hama brand). He is not aware of having thumped...

Pentax Pinhole cameras
(especially when using a pin hole - don't ask!). Sorry Matt couldn't resist picking up on this from the sensor cleaning thread.. and I just HAVE to ask. Are we to understand that you have converted a body cap into a pinhole lens? What is the world coming to, state of the art digital pinhole came...

All Purpose Film?
I had a bit of a mind blowing experience yesterday evening at my brother-in-laws. He's moving into medium format with a very nice Bronica and Twin Lens Mamiya. He'd bought a flood light kit with what appear to be 250 Watt white, frosted bulbs. I mentioned that if he wanted to shoot colour, he...

Robotic Camera Platform
You could build a rotating wheel to go in front of the lens that holds filters. Attach a motor to the wheel and it rotates to place the desired filter in front of the lens. Use a cheap remote control unit from say a RC car to control it. 8)

Looks Like I Indirectly Started a Dispute at DP Reviews
One of the things the internet has taught me, is that no matter how obscure a subject may seem, there are far more people interested in it to an unhealthy degree, than any sane person could possibly imagine. :shock: The trick is to learn to filter out the "noise". 8)

Forum Colours
Nope, it only blocks what you want it to, and by default that is only a known advert database. You'd have to add Flickr and Photobucket or similar sites to the filter.

Just ordered a pentax k10d and i have some questions....
I have come to the sad but inevitable conclusion that EEC customers who continue to pay excessive retail prices must (not to put it too finely) be total 'mugs' ! I could'nt agree more :!: :!: And Australia is in the same boat to a certain extent, at least we get a generous threshhold (when buying...
