hi all. do you have a kr? if so, i have 2 spare brand new spare batteries which was part of a duplicated order (4 delivered instead of 2). im looking to return then back to USA next week but thought id just ask if anyone wants them just to avoid all the hassle of posting. £15 for both and i recently took them to dublin and they lasted a long time and appear to be pretty good.
if you are in the birmingham area i can maybe meet you half way.
if you require further details call me on 07429 154545
thanks for looking

hi all pentax buddies
just had delivery of a red filter for black and white photography.
im not sure how to use this filter as ive just took a few pics in the garden and they have just turned out red.
has anyone used these filters, and whats the best way to apply them?
thanks for looking
thank you all

thanks chris.
i haven't started shootin raw yet but cloudy for a warm feel sounds perfect for these cold nights.
cheers mate

hi guys. had a great time shooting at the german market last night and was quite proud of the results. having experimented with shutter speed?iso and aperture, im still not sure what WB setting is the best to use. im not really keen on leaving on auto as im trying to use all manual settings now.
thanks all

hi all, i have the pentax k-r and have the software CD that came with it..(pentax utility 4). does anyone know how to extract different colours from an image? ive been told it has that feature.
many thanks!

thanks cabstar.
and thanks matt, been doing as you said. also have some nd filters on the way, so will be experimenting further!

yes thanks matt, i think time will tell how creative i may become, im pretty confident in the fact that ive always tried to do things a little differently in life and hopefull this will see me through. the books and mags have very usefull stuff but i think i need the have the foundations in place ie composition, exposure etc. so i'll give it a go and see where i end up.
gareth and johnx it is based in a local college (sandwell) so no real additional travel expenses, cheers
and yes simon, interaction with tutors and fellow students opens doors to discussion on all aspects of photography...cheers mate
many thanks dougf8 for your inspiring words and ive decided to start next week and hopefully move onto better things.
in all honesty, i just want to take pictures like you guys.
thank you all

hi all, would love some advice off you guys, i enrolled today (but have a 7 day cooling off period before i pay me fees) on a b-tec level 2 photography course. 3hrs a week for 16 weeks. but im not sure whether its worth the £203 or am i better off just experimenting and learning from books and mags. does anyone know anything about this course and should i do it?
ps, i am a beginner just getting to grips with my new pentax k-r
thanks
