Which Pentax DSLR to upgrade to ?
The effect of a well designed AA filter on an image captured with a Bayer array sensor is not the same as a Gaussian blur. It just happens to be cheaper not to have the filter and rely on the sensor outresolving the lens instead. Read the article! .... It is not about taking or removing moire! .... ...

Which Pentax DSLR to upgrade to ?
Well, I guess the debate has moved on anyway as now we don't have a choice .... all new Pentax DSLRs come without the AA filter (I think ...). I just wanted to point out that sharpness should not be the only consideration if faced with a choice, say if buying secondhand, and that as far as the resul...

Thanks Phil and Derek. After the last shot of the ford I decided to try a 10 stop filter for a 30 sec exposure on a 15-30mm lens, and right in the middle a couple on horses rode across the river! That would have been a nice image but never mind, here is the second go: Managed to get the water sm...

What filter system did you go for ? Lee Filters SW150 big stopper plus a polariser although with light behind me I don’t think it had a lot of effect. The big stopper gives a very blue cast but easily resolved in Lightroom by changing the white balance.

My latest acquisition is on a YouTube video https://youtu.be/XaDCv2ETqVM Sweet deal you got there! Not that I'd know where to begin with them, mind you...

I now have what some consider to be a 'hen's tooth'. An SMC Pentax reflex zoom 1:8~12, 400~600mm, AKA a mirror lens. Not many of these were made and certainly not to this quality and with a zoom facility! Since I love old glass this was quite irresistible. In terms of size, it's like a beefed up ...

A set of Cokin A ND filters to go with the smaller filter sizes of classic M42 lenses. 100mm system would look like they were going to tip them over:shock:

bought an early tamron 70-200mm f2.8 cheaply with damaged filter thread collar. Price for one on the net around £70-80 so contacted Tamron to see if they had the part, got the reply that they have , price is £8.58 and on its way to me. Good to see profiteering is still going well on the net:lol:

Lee holders 100 Filter holder - new style. Recently bought the Lee Circular polariser with holder to use on the 24-70 (all my other zooms bar the Nikkor 200-500 and the Pentax 15-30 are 77mm filter thread) so the Lee filter should be good for the times when I use the other filters. The B&W circu...

Barrie. That F 24-50 should be a fabulous performer but beware that the front element is just that - right at the front and very vulnerable. Thanks for the warning. It did come with a skylight filter attached

The one in the article doesn't have a built in lens. Mostly they screw into the filter thread of say a Pentax Macro lens. Quite hard to find. Non on ebay at present. This is about the crudest one, but gives a good idea of what's needed. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BDB-CAMERA-SLIDE-COPIER-ATTACHMEN...
