Sorry-Not quite quick enough yet to catch the inaccuracies, but it was, at least, nice to see a rare Pentax article.
Thanks for the tip, Batty, I got that reflector.

Here's one for you, Batty.
Great 5 page feature in " Amateur Photography " 28 Jan 06 covering all the Pentax 'Greats' of the 60s and 70s. Very well written by Ivor Matanle with excellent photographs. Lots of Tech. info which I know you'll enjoy.
Email me if you want me to send it to you.
Regards,
Philip.

I too, am fortunate to have bought equipment from Batty and found everything perfect. He usually mentions 'Slight user mark' somewhere on his item and there probably is, but you would need damned good eyesight to see it!
Now his good name has come here to Ireland.

Comment by fanebridge posted on Lens Aperture Question? at 09/02/2006 - 19:15

I have a SMC Pentax-M 50mm lens which I have never used. When turning the aperture ring off-camera the aperture opens and closes as normal. However, when in the process of mounting the lens the aperture opens fully and stays that way. Even when fully mounted, operating the aperture ring has no visible effect.
Can any of you lettered men of science explain this?
Is the camera or lens faulty?
Is it me?

Thank you, gentlemen. All I have to do now is find my way to the back of my steam-powered Dell (Windows 2000) to locate a vacant USB port and hopefully, my pathetic images will be thrust on to my monitor.
And by the way, the DS is an absolutely delightful piece of machinery,
Many thanks to all for now,
Philip.

Thanks Golfdiesel for your reply on Jan 17. Yes, I did mean Original Software ( Sorry, not very computer wise ). You say this is not much good. What would you recommend? I've just bought an SD card reader.
Would this be ok to upload/download images to PC?
Many thanks,
Philip.

Just bought an *ist DS on eBay. Very happy with camera but unfortunately no original firmware CD-Rom in package.
Tried to download firmware from Pentax UK but at end of download am asked to insert CD-Rom provided !!
Would be very grateful for a solution.
