Even the aged Pentax SMC-A 400mm F5.6 goes down to F45.

Spent a very pleasant couple of hours at SRS today, including a nice chat with Mark the Pentax guy, who seemed to be very enthusiastic about Pentax's future under Ricoh.

I showed him the issue with the electronic level on my K-5, and he noted it down and assured me that it would all be fed back (I'm still angling for a firmware update to allow it to be user-calibrated). I was a little surprised with his assertion that it's not a problem they're aware of, so I mentioned the fact that it's all over the forums, and that they should definitely get someone from the company to hang out online to pick up on this sort of thing. We'll see if anything comes of it.

'Grats to Chris too, for what sounded like a very successful day, always a pleasure to hear when SRS do well.

Also good to meet Dan Bridge - neither one of us was how each had imagined the other.

A double success for me - no parking ticket (so far!) from Sainsbury's despite the fact that I lost all track of time and was there more than the allowed two hours, and I managed to escape without giving into temptation with all those lenses on show.

Hope all those that bought stuff today enjoy their spoils

Seriously, I just logged into one of my Picasa albums and looked at the screen. Then I just typed what I did.

Sorry, am I missing something here?

Don't you just want to lick it!

Log in, go to the album... Actions > Delete album.

Or, if you only want to delete some from an album, go to the album, and instead of Actions, click Organise.

Then you select as many as you like (with Ctrl-Click or Shift-Click), then you can Copy or Move them to another album, or delete them.

Not sure how you could do it that's long-winded

Cor, let no one say that the support guys don't respond. They've fixed the link to the form already.

Thanks Chris. I'll be nice..

(.. ish :lol

Thanks.

The link is still bust - report sent. I've marked it urgent - I'm planning to take it with me to SRS tomorrow for forwarding on, so let's hope they can sort it quickly.

When would be the best time to show up and extract the maximum in the way of agonised howls from the Pentax rep(s)?

Quick update on this... I took the 17-70 to Asahi, and sadly, the chap said there was nothing he could do with it.

So Johnson's it is - can someone confirm that the PUP discount applies to repairs sent in via them?

Turns out that Asahi-Photo is a little workshop at the back of a model shop
