Liam,

On Sunday Comet Macnaught was about 10 degrees south of the sun, that's the width of your fist at arms length. There have been reports of people spotting it in borad daylight. I couln't see it here in South Bucks.

Liam,

Any chance that there is a comet in those sunset photos?

Oddly, the rawformat.com website looks like it hasn't been updated since August 2006.

I think owning a Pentax is a bit like running Linux on your PC, it's a bit left-field, so all the "straight" people think you are a bit weird!

Last year, I had to take my Optio WPi to Pentax for repair. I had purchased it from Pixmania. They repaired it under warranty, but the girl who checked it in said that they "had issues with pixmania".

Itsme,

Did you buy the camera from Pixmania? They have a habit of importing cameras from overseas with foreign-language printed manuals.

Patrick,

Please be aware that some screens may affect TTL metering. If you are using the katzeye screens check their website for details.

No problems at all with my Sigma 12-24mm 1:4.5-5.6 DG EX or 70-300mm 1:4.5-5.6 APO DG

Liam,

Thanks for the link, just need adobe to update ACR now!

Joshua,

I suppose the point I was trying to make, is that the digital revoloution has opened up a lot of possibilities (like high ISO) that many people would not have bothered with before, therefore they freak out when they see some artifacts that hadn't come across before. It's like eating ice cream for tthe first time, without knowing it is supposed to be cold!
