Lightroom I think is the best for this workflow, only thing you can't do in LR is curves adjustment but you can do specific adjustments.

The majority of your workflow you can automate in Lightroom so on import you can rename, insert metadata, backup elsewhere and then do selections by rating, pick or colour.

Finally export to social networking, file, print or book.

The law is very consistent on this. Eu law states all items should have a two year warranty, amazon have been told numerous times to comply with the law but keep on ignoring it.

Contract law again is also very simple.

Customer has a contract with the retailer, the retailer has a contract with the supplier, this is why manufacturers will not deal directly with consumers.

The EU law is a great piece of legislation and is there to protect consumers from dodgy manufacturers who don't care about there quality control or their customers. I don't sympathise with amazon in fact I despise them. People have this idea they are a lovely company yet they increasingly break consumer law, pay no taxation in the uk despite trading here and are putting other online businesses out of business left rig and centre which limits consumer choice and makes them more and more powerful.

LBA bites again so have the following for sale.

Payment method bank transer, bank deposit preferred,Paypal accepted but prices are net of fees, buyer pays fees, sorry I do not accept paypal gift payments.

I have upgraded to DA* 16-50mm so my well regarded Tamron 17-50mm has to go.

IQ wise there is very little difference between the Tamron and Pentax lens, I have wanted WR for so long to match my 50-135mm so took the plunge.

The lens has been used, it was my work horse so there are scratches (light) on the body, there is also a little dust in the rear element, there is also minor marks on the inside element where the front glass has rubbed on the inner element, a common fault. The front bezel is also missing due to having to tighten up the front element due to the usual coming loose.

None of these faults affect IQ or usage but would rather the buyer know beforehand. Complete with original front cap, Sigma rear cap, box and all documentation. Bought from SRS around early 2008 so no warranty.

Price £200 inc RMSD

Pentax SMC AF 1.7x Teleconverter

I recently bought this from MikeP to complement my Tokina 100-300mm f/4 where it worked really well. I am looking to upgrade to the Sigma 150-500mm.

The teleconverter works really well and I was impressed with the AF speed on my k-5 which always locked first time and quickly.

Complete with box, original front and rear caps, non original lens bag.

Price £250 inc RMSD

Tokina 100-300mm f/4

I have owned this lens for over a year now and bought it on ebay from a US seller, I am looking to get back what I paid with duty fees etc..

This is a very rare opportunity and one I may come to regret later..

Lens has no issues, comes with original front cap, OEM rear cap, OEM hood and a Matin lens bag.

Although manual focus the lens is sharp and easy to use if a little heavy, I used it most weekends this year for festival use and did not find it heavy to walk around with all day.

Price £190 inc RMSD

But then no one would buy the new version of photoshop...

I always forget about Flickr too, 25 dollars a year for unlimited storage. My hi res stuff I Mark as private so is not searchable or viewable...

I used drop box, but prefer Microsoft skydrive. Being an early user I get 25 gig free, not sure what the free limit is now.

Cheapest way is to buy your own we space, i pay around £40 a year for unlimited space and bandwidth...

Did they pay for usage???

I think the biggest difference between my gx20 (k20d) and the k-5 is that my gx20 tends to step back and forth until focus is correct where the k-5 just locks on. Focus speed does also rely on the lens, my da35 is so fast compared to my da50-135mm. So yes body does make a difference but lens does too....

Beautiful work Benjamin, stunning location too.

I bought my k-5 used on eBay, the seller provided me the receipt from WEX with his name blanked out. I had no problem getting the camera repaired under warranty from jps including a copy of this receipt with the fault.

Warranty registration is a way for companies to get primary data from their customers which they can use and sell...
