If you don't want to spend a fortune, the Philips 227E4LH is a most excellent monitor with comprehensive calibration that ends up spot on. Under £100 from Currys. I have been more than happy with this monitor.

I knew it would be something simple like me not looking (or seeing) what was in front of me. And so it was.
Thank you all and John in particular.

I'm resurrecting this ancient post just to show that I HAVE searched the forum entries.
I've done exactly what it says and found absolutley nothing resembling the actions suggested
Can someone please assist with the question of incorporating a 'signature' to posts etc?

Use the TV - brilliant idea! I bought a very long HDMI cable to view the results from my armchair but it never occurred to me that you could use it to preview the shot beforehand.

I've got a very compact tripod that I always put in my suitcase, midway between the needs of a compact and a dslr camera. The box it came in was about 4ins square and 15ins long. Extended, on its spindly legs, it's about 40ins tall. Provided you use some sort of remote release the fact that the K5 is a bit to heavy for it doesn't matter a bit. It cost all of £6 off Ebay. At that price, if it doesn't work you chuck it in the nearest bin.

The A 1.7 and the A macro 2.8 50mms produce the same stunning results. I particularly like the crisp contrast of the petal edges in the 1st one.

I thought 30 seconds was the maximum you could get away with WITHOUT the stars growing tails?
Whatever, they are impressive

Glad to hear you are on the mend. Back to topic - I've just done exactly what you are contemplating. The 55-300 has firmly replaced the Sigma, which went on Ebay just this evening - just don't let the punters hear about this posting or I won't sell it. If you're stuck for a macro just enter macro takumar in the ebay search box ..............

The last one is very nice -- but it only just beats the rest of them

I like these. They seem to promote contemplation
