I took a picture the day after the clocks went back, and noticed that the time on it was wrong. I'd actually assumed that it would do it automatically, like Windows, but I guess that's a bit much to expect.
I'd like to sound smug, but I also noticed that I'd set the date wrong originally

How old is the 17-70? surely if it's within the warranty period it should be remedied for free....
It's in mint condition to look at, and it's not at all bad stopped down. I only noticed when I started taking some wide open shots and got some OOF-ness that made me look a bit closer.
For the record, I've no reason to think there was anything other than the most impeccable good faith in the transaction by which I came by it.

The repair/adjustment options available to me seem to be:
- Take it to Asahi Photo (they're quite close to me), who have quoted me "about £60", although they can't tell for certain if it can be fixed until they get it open
- Send it to Johnsons-Photopia via SRS
SRS's legendary service makes the latter option attractive, but the closeness and good reputation of the former makes it too close to call - I've never had anything fixed before, so I have no experience to base it on.
Any thoughts/views/experiences?
Ta.

2) but in addition the Terms and Conditions have been modified for some time to make the framework clearer. It has been mentioned already.

If you don't go you will miss the chance of a hat or a mug
I would not wear a Pentax hat in public unless you paid me, or possibly for Children in Need or some such vehicle for looking ridiculous for charity.
However, I may still try and stop by on Saturday, since I feel it would be rude not to give the Pentax bloke a suitably hard time. You'll know it's me - I'll be the one whacking him and shouting "Are you level yet? Put that in your firmware and calibrate!"

Can’t, see a lot wrong with the in-flight images taken with the bigma.
That said, they do look a bit better clicked on, opened in a browser tab of their own, so I don't know what, if anything, the forum software is doing to them.
Strangely, the images are sometimes appearing *larger* than actual size, which is a right pain, since obviously they pixelate.

No IR, so very rarely an issue

A funny thought occurs to me...
We can have a thread about a Golf thread... but not a Golf thread.
Well it made me laugh, anyway.
Come to think of it, Ken should have started his post in the Pointless Thread, is'nt that what golf is
