Try a camera shop somewhere and see if they have something suitable in their clearance or S/H bin. You don't actually need the circular variety for Pentax cameras though if shared with other brands you might do. This might be worth a punt: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/62mm-Genuine-HOYA-Circular-Po...

CPL for Pentax 18-135mm
I bought a new one this summer from a local company - SRB Photographic in Dunstable. It is well-built from anodised aluminium and multi-coated glass, and its movement is smooth and suitably damped. Not having used one before, its effect of deepening the blue of the sky was pleasantly surprising. ...

CPL for Pentax 18-135mm
I would recommend you buy a larger CPL filter and a step down ring.. As quite a few Pentax lenses now have a larger filter size,, The problem with this is that the lens hood will probably no longer fit over the large filter and stepping rings. I have a 49mm Marumi CPL which is superb - I use it ...

K20D infrared?
Like Barrie I went for a mirrorless model when I got a converted body. My initial one was brought pre-converted for less than the cost of a conversion. More recently I've brought a FF body & had that converted by on the isle of wight. I should be able to shoot UV as well as IR with the new one, a...

K20D infrared?
Whatever the benefits of an IR mirrorless camera, it misses the point somewhat. Now debating which filter to have fitted... Thanks all. K.

Sensor cleaning (again)
There was a thread here but I’ve lost it. Anyhow I recently noticed some spots when processing so I did a test by snapping a blank white screen. In the Lightroom spot removal tool I was staggered to see how many there were, but I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised as it’s the first time I have tried t...

You sound very relieved!!! +1 for wrapping strap round wrist if not round neck. And when camera is left for a while, the strap is looped up with an elastic band or cable tie so it doesn't go all over the place when camera is picked up. Incidentally, just because the strap caught on a drawer ha...

My camera has a home made wrist strap attached, which is what I always hold when using it. While walking around photographing I also wear a neck strap, and I clip the camera to that but only if ever and only while I need both hands free. A potential disaster happened with my almost new K-5 back i...

Similar to me, many years ago with my newly acquired K30/2.8. Luckily the only damage was to the UV filter... That sounds grim - it's one of those heart-stopping moments isn't it? I bet it was made worse with a lesser-spotted lens such as that K30/2.8![/quote] ---x--- I didn't think or realise...

Pentax cameras are, fortunately, pretty sturdy. Years ago, on holiday in Crete, I had my Spotmatic on a strap over my shoulder. One of the spring clips that held the strap to the camera came apart and Spotmatic hit the pavement, lens first. Lens hood took most of the impact and became unusable, UV f...

Colour Space and Paintings
Lubbyman, if the light isn’t evenly distributed in the first batch you could try applying a graduated filter to lighten them locally in post processing, a bit of tweaking should get it right.
