Yet another K7 question.
So, I my Tamron 18-200 lens does not seem as stellar on my new K7 as it did with my K2000. Not a huge difference, but noticable to me. So, I guess what I am asking is....is the K7 showing the weakness of an inferior lens better than the K2000 did, because of more MP and what-not? The Tamron was m...

How much icing for a K10D?
Not bad - although there are now machines which will "print" and image on icing using edible food colouring. Not quite the same though it is? A bit like making a water colour by applying a filter in photoshop... K.

Me JPG's are B+W ?
Sounds odd. Are you sure you hadn't been playing with the settings and set up the B/W filter by mistake?

Me JPG's are B+W ?
It is possible but then I haven't subsequently turned off the b/w filter. I guess unless it happens again I won't know.

If you have cokin p or lee filters you can focus before you slide the filter down in to place james

I wouldn't even think of putting even a good quality welding filter in front of a lens if I wanted good results. There's a reason why they cost 3 quid and ND filters cost 50 quid. Can't you use the menus to you move the AF to the button at the back so that there is no AF when you press the shutte...

Dont know why you want an ND filter anyway, just wait for a typical english day and set the aperture to f32, take a flask and sandwiches though:D:D:D

Have I got hold of the wrong end of the stick on welders glass. This is the stuff you use to take out the UV and darken the weld. Usually rectangular and fits in the mask? Pretty thick and strong too. Mike

What have Pentax been up to?
My curiosity was sparked after reading this recent (Friday 26th Feb) on ephotozine. In particular I was interested in the comments about an improvement in high ISO noise performance that Matt Grayson had identified with the latest v1.03 firmware. Pentax make no mention of it in there accompanyi...

Pentax K-5?
And then there are 400mm f/2.8 lenses, obviously they'd need a 143mm mount... ;-) It doesn't work like that and the design is different from the lens but well yes there are tricks to get a lower f-number then f/1 but it's going to be a macro lens. ps. actually you need to measure the front elemen...

old versus new
Pick up a reversing ring for your 28mm and you'll have a fine macro lens for not very much. If you have a 28 and a 50 I'd look for a 135mm next. The M series 135mm f/3.5 is a lovely little lens, the K series f/2.5 bigger but rather nice IQ. The A series version is a bit pricey as it wasn't as...

How would you improve your Pentax SLR?
Fifthed except K7 body, fully articulated 3" screen a la G1, and IS and dustbusting a la Olympus, visible focus points in the viewfinder, my menu, no increase in pixel count necessary thankyou. Just a tip, the K-7 does have a very similar dust busting technique to Oly (Ultra sonic vibration of the ...

How would you improve your Pentax SLR?
Mine's a k20d. It's an excellent camera and it will be a long time before i feel the need to upgrade. The wish list: in camera neutral density graduated filters would be terrific b&w filter setting that stays on for multiple frames full frame sensor TTL flash compatibility non-crippled KAF2...

K20 D - Best Zoom lens to 300mm
Gosh, I put a CPL filter on the lens, and none were coming out sharp and exposure was not consistent. I thought another dud. Took the filter off, and now much improved. Next question. What filter will least effect the Autofocus of the lens on the camera? Is this normal, for filters to have this effe...
