Full frame DSLR from Pentax?

I'm all for it, simply because the lenses designed for APS sensors will probably come down in price as too will the K20D, question is, how long do I put off buying the 17-70

That might be a good idea John

The most annoying thing here is the two most prominent guest are my son and daughter, I could have just yelled for them to lose themselves.

I am actually considering going back to the venue and snapping the exterior again.

I'm using Photoshop 7

Can anyone suggest an alternative to Gausian Blur for throwing backgrounds out of focus. I have a wedding shot of the bride looking back over her shoulder but the background is cluttered and has a few "unwanted" guests in it. Cloning the guests out isn't really an option, I dont want to replace the background either.

Gausian Blur just doesn't seem to have the desired effect, and I would prefer to give it a "dreamy" feel.

I know for a fact that Angels and Spiders go well together.....

......After all I am married to an Angel




Now you've all stopped groaning I'll hazard a guess at identification,

From the body shape it looks a bit like Steatoda grossa which likes Cornwall I believe.

Well that report starts off with a really big gaff Unless the D90 is a full frame sensor of course.

Quote " This means a person using a 500mm lens, who would normally have to shoot at 1/500th of a second, can shoot at 2 seconds when uVR is enabled." end quote.

Er, shouldn't that be "a person using a 500mm lens on a APS sized sensor would normally have to shoot at 1/750th sec"

I'm all for having a laugh but at least they could have got the true facts right.

I will never believe another review as long as I live

This is three images in one, a lion of the left, one on the right and some manky bricks

This topic just goes to show how opinions vary, Yes, the image needs cropping, but its the Lion on the right that needs to go, add a bit more sparkle to the "YEUK" cotton wool water using the add sparkle tool in photoshop (I'm sure it'll have one somewhere) and the jobs a good un!

Oh and Gwyn, theres nothing wrong with YEUKY water

All this discussion of uploading and been a subscriber is all well and good, but it doesn't answer my question, "How do I link to images in my gallery? I tried inserting the URL from my profile gallery as you do for photobucket etc but my image just didn't show, I eventually linked it to photobucket to get it to work.
