I like the one of the Scottish fan crying. You'd think he'd have got used to it by now.

I'd like to see how they're going to add that on to a K5 or a K7

If you're shooting near your laptop then yes useful, but hardly a dslr revolution. And other makes can shoot tethered anyway, so even less revolutionary.

But why would that work with the K5 and K7 but not the Kr?

I agree it seems plausible but "DSLRs will never be the same again". Is the clue in the photo? - the around the corner bit, I can't make out what the blurry logo is.

But why would suggestions two and three be limited to the K5 and K7?

And why would the first mean that DSLR's would never be the same again? A grip is specific to those two models but is it revolutionary. As many shoot RAW, would wi-fi be that useful? And GPS. I wouldn't get particularly excited by that, I roughly know where I am most of the time.

I might be tempted with a 35mm. Maybe the DA Ltd f2.8 macro.

Tiddles is great.

And I'm not a lover of cats, even though I've got one.

Sounds like a fantastic trip. Really looking forward to the photos.

I wasn't sure what the stock photos was for. That is very a good point Tim on the black and white section. If I submitted a black and white portrait, I would put in portraits.

I think the gallery is pretty well categorised and I agree that's it's best not to have too many.

I think many of Tim's shots would sit fairly comfortably into portraits/people (the people bit).

I do however think the Landscape/Travel section could do with a sub-category (or two). It is unwieldly at 229 pages. I think cityscape/urban, would be good. There are plenty of this type of shot in the general section, shots that don't quite fit landscape or architecture and where any people are part of the scene but not really the subject. I would personally like to see sea/beach as a separate subdivision too but I can understand why this would probably be seen as a step too far.

I don't see the need for a close up and a macro section - a combined close up/macro would suffice. Many of the shots in the close up section are macros anyway. That would save a section to be used elsewhere.
