K110D infrared conversion..
Thanks everyone, some great info that I have missed on my searches. Emailing ACS to see if they can supply the replacement hot filter as £250 is a little more than I want to pay - plus I like to do modifications like this my self - gives me something to do with my weekends when the weathers not f...

K110D infrared conversion..
To quote Pratchett again - "Stupid men are often capable of things the clever would not dare to contemplate..." Well, looks like I'll be ordering a IR hot filter from a well regarded Chinese chap from "the other forum" for the princely sum of $50 inc postage and it will take 15 days-ish to get to...

K110D infrared conversion..
I am certainly interested in how the conversion goes, keep us posted. BTW, do you need an IR filter that will exactly fit to the sensor :?:

K110D infrared conversion..
Yes, the IR hot filter needs to be the same dimensions as the stock one that is being removed - you can leave it without a hot filter or put a clear piece of glass there, but then you will need an IR filter on your lens to block the visible light from ruining your nice IR shots. :wink:

Saturday at SRS
Well, just to add to the comments from the open day..... I went along for a while to try out the 60-250 primarily, armed with my trusty 70-210 and DA200 in the bag for comparison purposes. Initial impressions were that the 60-250 is a solid lens, from the same mould as the 200 and 300mm lenses...

To shake the censor or not to shake the sensor!
I know it's from the K10D but I believe that they haven't change the system or have they? It's basically the same system, but the K20D gives the sensor a more vigarous shake at a higher frequency than the K10D. You can hear and feel that it's a lot more powerful. However, it's still not powerful eno...

ND filters
I'm not sure this is the right place for this topic but here goes. I am going to the Pacific Northwest in May. There are lots of waterfalls to photograph. I am not a fan of cotton wool water, but I suspect an ND filter may prove useful. But which one? How many stops should I choose? I don't wan...

ND filters
Canada is on the list. We have family and friends there, in Newfoundland, the Toronto area and in the Canadian Rockies in some tiny town stuck in the middle of nowhere, so we are hoping and planning eventually to make a really long trip across Canada, probably partly by train, since VIA offers some ...

Setting White Balance
my experience so far on using my K10D is that AWB can't be relied on too much and I am glad I shoot RAW and can adjust later. Take for example the way the weather has been this last week. Overcast one minute, bright sunshine the next. Cloudy WB seems better than AWB when its cloudy as AWB seems t...

Exposure meters
Argh!!! The Invercone is the best meter attachment ever made. It's a push fit into a 55->49mm stepdown filter ring which can then be screwed into your lens/filter thread and you can take incident light readings with your camera. (ASA correction constant needed). The shape of the invercone was carefu...

Tilt & Shift
Shim, It was me :oops: It was AlienSkin's Bokeh filter. . Trouble is it's around £140 :shock: Thought I'd have a go at regular "Lens Blur" in Photoshop. The trick is creating a decent depth map first and the lens blur filter will use this to simulate the shallow DoF. One software is "Focal ...

Neutral Density Filter question
I've just bought a B&W ND filter ND 1.8 64X. I was expecting to be able to do some very long exposures (30 seconds or so) with it, but it only offers about 2 to 4 seconds to achieve correct exposure. Any idea which filter I need, or should I get another one, ie. can they be combined and used tog...

Neutral Density Filter question
They can be combined. Just watch out for vignetting. You can also use a CPL to gain a extra two stops. Just set camera to lowest ISO, stop down to F16 and you should be able to get into the long exposure area. Obviously it al depends of the light levels, you are dealing with. I have a set of ND2...

Neutral Density Filter question
If the situation/subject permits it, you can use the in-camera multiexposure. I've used it in my K10D and it works quite well for say... a stream or waterfall. Nonetheless an ND is a great tool to have.

Neutral Density Filter question
It seems short though the times you're getting can you give us more info on what kind of settings your camera is on? If you finally come in the seconds, times are getting bigger faster so squezing your aperture 1 or 2 stops might already give you times of 8 seconds, I believe. If you're going to...

Neutral Density Filter question
I've just taken a few shots outdoors at f22 iso 200 (this is min iso on k100d) and correct exposure time is only 3 secs. I want to achieve shots lasting much longer than this, say 1 or 2 minutes. Am I correct in thinking that to combine an ND8 with the 64x filter, I would then get 8 x 3 second...
