Is it the f4 50mm macro lens? They're reported to be incredibly sharp indeed!!

Hi Iain... Delve into the K2000's menu system and set 'Allow Aperture Ring' and any K-mount lenses without an 'A' setting should work beautifully... Those lenses with 'A' settings on their aperture rings should work great (aperture being controlled via the K2000) already!

Welcome to the forum and... What have you got? What have you got? What have you got? What have you got? What have you got? What have you got? What have you got?????

You now, once you download stuff, it's good to read it

The instructions say "minimum focus distance, then back a bit".
When and if I do download a test chart I certainly will but as I haven't as yet downloaded anything (and not sure where you got the idea I had?) I thought I'd just gather as much info as possible both for myself and any other interested parties... Thanks for your response, I shall hope the condescending tone was unintentional as the information was at least relitavely useful, if a little vague...

When using these test charts do you focus from the minimum focus distance of the lens you're testing or is there a set distance for the chart being used?

Or does it not matter?

I may or may not have the boy and his *istDS in tow, depending on his mood on Sunday morning (9 year old teenager!)

Weather not looking great but the reports have been getting it wrong a fair bit recently, so I'm confident of glorious sunshine!

I just got an upgrade from a HTCsalsa to an iphone and the apps actually seem to work... The Flickr one in particular is pretty good and Twitter (@BfdRenegade) is now actually useful on my phone too!

I use PentaxUser as much (if not more than) any other site, so a well thought out app would absolutely be of use to me... And I'm sure I'm can't be the only one!

Hello...
Obviously I love the site.
Just wondered what the chances of a iPhone/smartphone app were... ?
