Robi, basic problem,as explained in my op, is that I can not download.

Mc! No not got the camera or its disc yet. Just want be sure when I do get them that I can process and print jpegs with the software disk that comes in the box.

Many thanks for all your help.

On a different point, does anyone run seminars on Pentax cameras as I did for the Z1 I in 1990s?

McG, having read your article on the Pentax processing software, I think I did not explain my needs very well. What I would like to be able to is, once the camera has been set up for sharpness etc., is download to the computer and then with tha Utility software you mention ( which I had never heard of ) do some basic editing and print.

At the moment I have no need to use Raw, but would possibly need it in the future.

Hope this makes more sense than my op.

Thanks Robi and fatspider. As you may have gathered I am not up in IT! I did not know what you have suggested was possible. I will get in touch with my granddaughter who is an IT manager and get help to do as fatspider suggests.

I think that will solve my problem.

I have using Pentax cameras since 1962 and would like to continue especially as at 82 my cycling days are coming to an end.

Thanks everybody for your help.

Thanks Mc., if it is going be as difficult as you say , I may as well stay with what I have. I was just hoping that the software that came with a K50 would allow me to produce decent jpegs.

The work I do is only for my own and family use, happy with JPEG quality.

Thanks both. However due to various limitations I only want use jpegs for the bulk of my photos. More and more software is only available to download and I have little experience of digital work except with Canon software that came with myg10. I was hoping that something similar would be with the K50.

As said before I can no longer download to my desktop, so any better software would to be on disk and easy to use.

Thanks John. As I said a very bad year which included my computer being hacked and wrecked. So new one is a photo standalone, emails and this from an IPad.With digital I still have Canon g10 software. Still using Pentax film. But would like to get back with Pentax digital , using my old lenses.

No very little about other software but understand k50 comes complete with its own, correct?

Hi, back again after a very bad year. Want to try my hand again with a k50. Problem is I am unable to download software. My desktop is a photo standalone. Will I get good jpegs from the software that comes with the k50?

Ross.

I have not done any dslr portraits but did nothing else some years ago, despite having a m 85 f2 most of my published work was done with a Pentax 75-150 f4 zoom. Outstanding results and small dof at 10O and and over.

I understand they are not expensiveused. The zoom helps to reframe when the subject moves!
