I use Norton 2009 Internet Security and as it claims it uses much less memory. No longer hogging resources it seems! (as per previous versions)

Can't be the Pole Star. The star trails would arc around it. Photo must be taken towards the south.

I recently spent some time at the Broome Bird Observatory. Took many shots but realized I was missing some 30 or so from one of 4 SD cards.
Took the plunge and downloaded Pandora Recovery from download.com.
Somehow I deleted these files (in camera probably). It was very hot and both myself and the camera were suffering in the middle of the day!
Anyhow, the software showed the deleted files still on the SD card. Recovered some great photos with no problems.

Yes, thats right but the focus adjustment for that specific lens is retained by the K20D, even if it can't tell the difference between a pentax and a sigma. This is my experience.And some older Sigma lenses incorrectly identify themselves as Pentax lenses of a similar type. For example, my Sigma UC 28-200 used to identify as a Pentax SMC 28-135.

I feel some deja vu here. Similar comments previously in this? forum. I have a number of sigma lenses and my K20D automatically adjusts focus for each lens. No problems!

I agree with all the comments above. Particularly Iceblinkers. Coming from the ist DS with very good penta prism viewfinder, I decided to pass on the mirror versions which I found a bit dim and jumped to the K20D with numerous additional features. All of the K20D features are great. However, I won't get rid of the DS. Its lighter for travelling in particular.

Nice shots but would be better if you inverted them I think.

I have a number of Sigma lenses. FF/BF is definitely remembered for each lens, although no lens list is shown on the camera (K20D). I think all of the Pentax AF lenses can be stored. Sigma lenses are an issue because they all identify themselves as "Sigma", nothing else. If you have a number of Sigma lenses, you'll have to choose one, and all the others will be corrected the same way.
