What a bunch of boring pics....YAWN

Sorry Kris but I'm only a half hour away from York and I've seen all theses a hundred times over

Seriously though I like your take on the old favorites, I especially like the last shot, anyone who climbs those stairs deserves a medal, I have certainly never done it.

So what did you think of the Capitol of Yorkshire? and did you get any shots of the carvings around the west door?

Who says the Pentax AF can't handle fast moving objects?

Nice

One curiosity though - the exif data says the second picture was taken atF3.5. To my fairly inexperienced eye, the dof is remarkable for that large an apperture.
Oggy, you failed to look at the focal length, DoF would still be good wide open on an 18mm lens

Oops! sorry forgot to comment on the pics as well, the weather wasn't really on your side for exterior shots, OK for the interior though, I agree with the other comments.

Should we take into account the crop factor when calculating hand held shutter speeds to avoid camera shake?

If I shoot 35mm with the Bigma at 500mm, rule of thumb says I should keep my shutter speed above 1/500th, so assuming I dont use SR on A DSLR do I still keep the shutter speed at 1/500th or do I have to allow for the crop factor and shoot at 1/750th
