I've occasionally used a picture in competitions and also in the Gallery and no one has ever complained , or even noticed. As has been said above, there is no rule covering this.

PS: I must do more comments in the Forum as I'm pushing for my 3,000th post, a flee bite compared to some of my friends on here. Congrats on your first 500.

A great set of images. I particularly like the gnarled tree against the sky shots and the last few icy pictures.

They are terrific Alan, especially the night shots. I've driven past them on the motorway between Edinburgh and Stirling a few times and have wanted to photograph them. Must get round to doing it.

Congratulations on your 1000th post and also on expanding your photographic expertise.
Over the past couple of years some of us have posted about a dozen of our favourite pictures from the previous 12 months each New Year. Why don't you treat us all to your select pictures from 2016 in January?

Is it a fully charged Pentax battery? Maybe the current is low, perhaps even a battery reaching the end of its life?

What is the life expectancy for a Pentax camera battery? I've never had to replace one yet despite the fact some of my cameras must, particularly the K5, one of the early ones, must have shot tens of thousands of images.
Maybe its time I invested in a couple of spares.

My K30 works perfectly with the DA* 200mm f2.8 lens so it would obviously function equally with the DA*300mm lens.

This has been a terrific thread with some excellent points made. Nice to have something that could have been controversial not degenerating into stupid arguments .

My best wishes to you and Mrs Catterick Gary. My wife Irene was recently very ill and after major surgery is now on the way to a full recovery. Fortunately for us they have ruled out cancer but it was still a very worrying time.

Maybe it's too obvious, but no-one has mentioned switching the camera off before changing a lens. I picked this up a long time ago from somewhere, I don't remember where.

I follow the same rule.
I think I read that it lessens the electrostatic attraction of dust particles to the sensor with the power off.

Me too - that's when I rememeber and when I've got time. Sometimes its neccessary to make a quick change during shoots. I frequently change lenses, as Nigel and Horst have already pointed out that's the point of having camera with interchangeable lenses.
