Digital may be "easier",what with uploading & processing but I have heard a few comments about digital lacking "grain".

Now where`s my old OM10?

Hmmm,maybe it`s a "my camera`s better than your`s" thing then.

Watching P3 & Qualifying of the Singapore GP I see so many camera flashes going off.
Are they really that effective in those conditions?.

I don`t think I followed protocol as I joined up a week ago with comments/postings,rather than introducing myself first so my apologises.

Using a K10D,Pentax 18-55,Tamron AF 70-300 & Kenko 2X Teleplus.
Interests include Aircraft,Automotive,Wildlife & Landscapes...would like to expand into Astromony captures as well,in time.

I really need to sit down and read the Manual!!

Clarky`s right,I had the same "problem" when I 1st tried d/ling photos.
Click on Computer and your camera will show as a drive when you connect via the USB cable...or just put your flash card into your reader,click on computer and click Flash Card Reader and from there you can move your photos to any folder you wish.
I`ve found that most Software discs have similar programs on them,except for the User Manual.
Remember,we`ve all been "Newbies",just some are further up the ladder than others....I`m probably on the 1st rung.

I've used that lens at motorsport events (in fact its only real purpose for me is motorsport) and it's quite capable as long as there's some reasonably good light.

Keep it below the 300mm max (around 250 is good) and have it stopped down to f/8 and the results are suprisingly good.
Thanks for the tip Hefty.

Have fun at Montreal,as you know doubt know,it`s a car breaker of a circuit.
Don`t know about a circuit in Essex so you might want to check out www.britsonpole.com or www.bmrc.co.uk before you make your flask.
Was thinking of going to Castle Coombe for a club weekend this year but never made it,but then,would my Tamron 70-300 be any good?,I wonder.
