Welcome to the forum Ray.

Is this camera new to you or is it one you have had for some time? ie: is it a user problem or do you think it is faulty?

There are many reasons for the problems your having, post a sample picture and lets have a look, dont worry about the EXIF data as we can extract it from the image ourselves.

Could do with a bit of a sharpen though
Unfortunately sharpening wouldn't really help, Dons got the focus point wrong......or should I say the camera got it wrong and Don is completely blameless
Looking at the EXIF I see that Dons shot wide open on the Bigma at 500mm, having done this myself on many occasions I completely understand the problems he faced, PITA!

Nice enough shot but not a prizewinner....I know, I have hundreds like it

Nice shot, where is it?

I'm a Bradford lad and don't recognise the location.
It taken from the B6145 Thornton Road, a few hundred yards before Bronte Place, that is Green Lane with the row of terraces.

I stopped at the side of the road and leaned over the wall to take it, It was a glorious day and I could have spent hours round the area, unfortunately I had promised my Brother a hand so was limited for time

I took it with the K20D and the 16-50

I always understood that the rangefinders popularity was due to its very quiet shutter, especially compared to that of a SLR accompanied by mirror slap.

I had a rangefinder once, a Yashica Electro 35 complete with additional screw on lenses and finder attachment, I prefered my Pentax so I flogged it

Something to get everyone into the festive spirit, a bit of snow

snapped this a few weeks ago while on my way over to Thornton in Bradford to help my brother with some decorating, been undecided about the crop and finally settled on this, about half the original and totally removing the sky.

I think I prefer the original, I thought about removing the guy behind but now I've seen it without I say keep him in.
