Nice find Lilly, thanks for sharing it with us

I'm amazed no-one asked you if your monitor is calibrated correctly (actually Matt did in a roundabout way), especially the gamma setting, if not and you adjust a print to look good on the monitor then it will be way different to your printers output.

There are many online tools to help you adjust your monitor and many free software downloads too, give a few of them a try. Spending a lot of money and time on calibration equipment or finding special profiles for your paper can be both expensive and time consuming so the freebie route is always worth a try.

I use an Epson R300 with a cheap(ish) continous ink system that uses cheap inks (£12 for 100ml of all siz colours) I use this with Epson premium glossy paper and also get very good results on some cheap glossy paper I bought, I occasionally have to adjust and re-print the odd image but the cost of doing this is negligable. All I did was adjust my monitor using a freebie download. I also print with photo enhance switched ON and also select "photo rpm" which prints slower but finer quality, not sure if your printer has that function though.

Nice capture, but I bet you make a sight ......mowing with a camera round your neck

On the other hand he may well have fallen in love with the camera and the superb pics it produced

I miss my Om30

I think folk are making too big a deal over this issue, users have been happy to use KA lenses and focus manually so whats to stop them manually focusing a KAF or FAJ lens in preferance to disposing of it?

I agree with John, Pentax have to move forward and I personally think we have been extremely lucky in their decisions to stick with the K mount for so long.

I am considering the 17-70 myself and have no qualms about it not been fully functional with my istD or MZ7, though to be honest my MZ7 has become a bit of a "collectors item"......collecting dust that is, and the istD is not far behind it.

Well there you have it, your tired so your grumpy and grumpy people can always find something to moan about

I dont mind the new look, its taken some getting used to but I can live with it, and I would sooner have the ads than no free forum

Would that be the same guy who's selling it on ebay? (bangs head on wall twice)......is'nt hindsight wonderfull

You need to stop monkeying around and start taking pictures

I opened up this thread and before the images had loaded I read Givintrees response, as soon as the first pic loaded I was in stitches. this is the sort of post I would have expected from Clarky, "the lesser spotted hump backed monkeyfly found in the backwaters of....Alicante?", the birth of mankind as we know it

I am not going to get any sleep tonight, All I will be able to think about is a dragonfly that looks like a monkey.

PS....GARFIELD???? what have YOU been drinking tonight?

PPS, Nice captures anyway Mike.

Fottball? PAH!

Dont you get it? we Brits invent stuff for the rest of the world to improve on and love

I could fall in love with a car, (have) I could fall in love with a woman (have) I could even fall in love with Italy (have) but I could NEVER fall in love with a hairy sweaty footballer or evan the game
