The Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway is worth a look too

They were celebrating 175 years of GWR last week.

We stayed a few days in Winchcombe last week. A lovely town and much less 'touristy' than Bourton and Stow. Some great walks to be had from there

Another plug for Picture Window Pro - very good programme (but a different way of thinking to Photoshop)
Also tried latest version of Paintshop Pro - had no end of problems with the trial version so have deleted it from the PC (not only locked up the PC but also corrupted my internet connection when I selected 'help' - had to reload the modem drivers)

Thanks for the link. Amazing stuff. I had wondered whether someone would claim infinite contrast ratio (simply by turning the backlighting off!). Does debunk so much of the marketing.

I mainly use ACDSee Pro software to process from raw

You might like to try Lightroom Beta 3v2 and compare. It has a really good noise reduction tool in the Develop module. It really can clean up High ISO noise (I have K7)

Andy

Edit - LR 3 as a beta version is free to try - I have ACDSee as well and for me LR is better at the RAW conversion

Look at the back of a film camera after taking a shot

Even worse - 'almost' opened the back of the camera to look for the picture

Yet another cheat here! Occasionally use manual or B but not usually the others!

Have just measured the thread on mine which fits the K10D - 1/4inch. Hope that helps. (There is no part number marking on it!)
