...or possibly the Eclips fluid used for sensor cleaning - the original version (ok for *istD ect, but not K10D) is also ok for lens cleaning

I am no expert - but I vaguely remember something about pentax K mount lenses but made for Ricoh cameras. There is a problem with them as although they also a re K mount, their contacts are different. i am not sure tht would physically stop you being able to fit it - but damage could occur.

Sorry that's not very clear!

EDIT - George beat me to it!

Slight deviation on topic:
I don't have any of these fancy P-TTL flash guns (yet!), but is it right that they flash guns can be used in tandem - ie wirelessly as master and slave etc?
And can one mix the makes - so put a metz with a sigma or with a pentax? And up to how many at one time?

Thanks
Andy

A very interesting effect - I did something years ago with some black paper, but as it was in 'good old folm days', I only shot a couple of piccies. A technique worth trying again sometime...

Thanks for posting

Ha Ha - very good!

And re the other comment about ACDSee looking worst until you turn colour management off.

I, too, have ACDSee Pro2 - a great programme BUT do agree with you! I leave colour mangament turned off, otherwise everything is rendered too saturated (toward red?). Perhaps a question on ACDSee forum is needed?

I don't claim to have sussed this arae at all, so was heartened to hear someone else thinking the same as me

Sorry - can't oblige. My earliest copy is October that year.

Just flagging up interest in this. I live South West London area (Morden/ Sutton). Where do you live, Chris?

What about the Surrey Hills? easily accessible of the M25 - places like Boxhill/ Ranmore Common etc? Possible need to wait until the leaves grow back though!

I am quite impressed with ACDSee - their latest Pro2 has just been released and supports K10D (not sure about the K100D super), and is very quick. You can add keywords, categories, captions and notes, a 1 to 5 rating, tagging and allows you to play with IPTC data as well.

It also costs a great deal less than Lightroom. I was fortunate enough to get a free Lightroom as I had RSP. ACDSEe is faster at sorting and adding keywords etc, but I feel Lightroom gives a better RAW conversion etc

hope this helps
