Ricoh may close shutter on personal camera business
I find using a 3 day delay filter on the internet sorts out the majority of the panics, fake news, etc. :)

Advice wanted on WB settings for KS-2
I use AWB when the lighting is mixed, but most of the time use a preset. I want the colour to be as I see it, not "corrected" by the camera. So the usual setting is Daylight. If I want a warmer result I use Cloudy and if in deep shadow that's tending to go purple then I use Shade. This is similar...

Do we need nother camera
Ian, I guess if you are posting the question, then you are probably asking for encouragement to upgrade. I agree with the above comments, you probably wouldn't notice the difference in print quality or indeed screen quality of images. Upgrading won't make you a better photographer, anyway, that's...

Need to replace my K1...!!
Ah looked at that one too.... Looks a great lens. Had great review on digital rev.. Not sure about the rear filters and I'm guessing 95mm front ND filter wont be so cheap....

Need to replace my K1...!!
At least it takes a screw-in filter! (The Samyang 14mm and the Pentax 15-30mm have bulbous front elements that require the use of a filter holder). You can replicate the effects of an ND filter in post.

Need to replace my K1...!!
Ive bought a few older zooms in the past.. admittedly at the cheaper end of the market and 80% of them produce poor images. On the K1. Id be dubious why you havn't used it for 10 years... Or bothered to remove the UV filter.. But thanks for the link its not totally out of the question..

Pentax KP ignores TAV setting
I have now checked and there are/were no limits on ISO in TAV and the only Auto Exposure adjustment that I can find relates to EV and that setting is OFF. I think that I now understand the Settings dial since its use appears to depend on the Function dial . In the Manual it is described as being the...

K20D IR Overpriced?
A professional conversion these days is over £320 Crikey :shock::shock::shock::shock: Think I'll try a filter first n see how i get on :D:D

K20D IR Overpriced?
With a filter youll need a tripod and prob wont be able to see the composition with the filter on, it'll have to be composed before you add the filter. The benefits of a conversion is you can use the camera handheld as normal I had a K5ii professionally converted last July, due to the increas...

From KP to something smaller?
update: I've acquired a 16-85mm ("replacing" the 17-50mm), it fits in Tamrac Jazz bag (though it won't with a filter..), similar size/weight, but i gain 1mm wide angle and 35mm of zoom, losing the f2.8.. it's also water resistant, now my 17-50mm has no value anymore anyway so not that i would care. ...

MattMatic's "Sharpen-O-Matic"
In true Wallace and Gromit style, here's a brief outline of my "Sharpen-O-Matic" capture sharpening - as promised :) I haven't seen anything like this anywhere on the web. So please note this technique originated with me, and credit me appropriately - or better still link back to here, or to my w...

MattMatic's "Sharpen-O-Matic"
Drew - thanks for the comment ;) I should have pointed out that I was aiming for a three pass sharpening approach, with the above technique being the first: * Capture sharpening - correcting the softness of the CCD only * Creative sharpening - where you may exaggerate the sharpening in specific...

Brian, Here's what I see...I see a talented eye with a strong sense of composition. I see a desire to improve. I see you mastering your tools and in the future I see you using the tools to make the image fit your vision. Don't give up. you have talent. The guys here have given you some good ad...

B&W conversion, critique pls
I'm not sure, i thought they all did. press the blue playback button, then the Fn button, then press left on the 4way rocker switch for a filter menu (on my ds2 anyways) for a b+w, sepia, soft, distort.

B&W Conversion
Actually, PSE4 is pretty excellent at B&W conversions too... if you know how to leverage it ;) Yes, CS2 is seriously good, but I would encourage you to learn with PSE4 first... Try this: * Add a new adjustment layer - Hue/Saturation - set Saturation to -100 * Change the layer blend mode ...

Picture Window Pro and RAW files
Yes please, I am interested in the other camera profiles which can be applied to *ist DS RAW files. I will send a PM. I was planning on getting a Lee filter holder and ND grad set soon - there is a white 'lens' cap which goes on the holder adapter which apparantly can be used for WB. I've not tri...
