These make the new purchase well worth it ..... Superb

That's a Devon Super-Highway that your belittling..... Cheeky!

That's a sad blow..... If deliveries a problem Jessops is your only hope. They look to be in Exeter and Torquay.

I wouldn't wait until tomorrow..... buy it over the phone and ask for delivery by Saturday direct to the store. Monday is a Bank Holiday. Not sure if holiday area shops are open, but deliveries might be a day later.

Mifsuds have a secondhand K-20 with 20,000 actuations for £199. Bit old and a risk.

Are you sure that the battery is charged? With the camera turned off... remove and re-insert the memory card to see if the light blinks.... just to see if there is any life anywhere.

Maybe Jessops or Mifsuds could have a look at the camera?

SRS are the best in the business and I'm sure that as Peter says if there's a postcode you could get a Royal Mail delivery alternatively you can have it delivered to a post office, but make enquiries with the post office your going to use first.

Tough luck ..... At least you should be better next time.

Next challenge please!

That one's ruined by having TWO massive highlights Greatly improved by just cropping out the SUN at the top

Don't worry about it competitions are rarely fair..... I remember a guy once losing a beer drinking competition to a Greenal's dray horse He complained after that they let the horse use a bucket and he had to make do with a pint glass Claimed he would have won with a bucket

Hello and Welcome to the forum. Shoji Otake Photography sounds interesting I'll have to try using Facebook..... not a site that I like, but I'll give it a shot.

That's much better. Quite acceptable from a 400mm lens. The RHS of the board looks more infocus than the left.

Manual Focus with a long lens is always difficult. The Sigma's with inbuilt SR are a bit easier or use a 2X Refconverter.

It's a pity that Pentax never improved the electronic indicator MF. Could have been the best in the business and wouldn't have taken much to develop. It's already about 80% complete.

Seems to be a lot of Lensbaby activity/searching on this forum all of a sudden

Lensbaby products look like very cheap rubbish and overpriced

You are a spammer and I claim my prize

That's a bargain, but only described as 'Average Condition' so inspection advised.

Works well with K-1..... more like a power drill on a K-5
