For macro work you might be better of with a Pentax Refconverter (M or A)
It can be switched between 1x and 2x and you look down into it.
The image is the right way round.

Track and Trace should be called "Lookup and Wonder"

You are better actually seeing the tripod, rather than buying
off ebay. Try your local camera shop.

Is this why Pentax went out of fashion

Was their new slogan......
"Even if your a very pretty girl.... you'll always be
alone with a Pentax"


Nice video though..... just the wrong message!

You should get a better finish using sandpaper. I used
3M Sandblaster 180 Fine.

A D7000 is £250 more than a K-5??? .... How can they both score
4 stars VFM.... surely the K-5 should be 5 stars

There was a program about S & G on one of the arts channels.
I always thought that their albums were just quite simply recorded
but it was mind boggling how much work actually went into them.
The drummer for instance searched around buildings to find the best
echo from the bass drum (or was it a gong) and he found a hotel where
he got a great echo in front of the lift shaft..... Some bloke got
the fright of his life as the lift doors opened and he saw this drummer
jumping up and down and hitting a big gong with every ounce of
strength he had!

That Leonard Cohen album is quite good, but I wouldn't want to
listen to it again
