Ahh! but did you guys notice the definition of "asahi" at the bottom of the page?
Maybe the name should be reborn due to the inspiratiuon the K10D has given many newcomers

Dont really want to burst your bubble Don but that is not very surprising, any hard drive, in this case your SD card thats connected to a computer can be shared on a network, what is surprising is the ease at which you've found yours, getting XP on my PC and Vista on my laptop to communicate and share drives gives me the biggest headache ever, fontunately my sons a network engineer so I just wait till he calls round

Errr....

My K10D works the same as all my other cameras when I switch it to Av, if it caries on working in this mode then I'm happy

I'm in agreement with most of the previous replys, the supplied manual covers everything joe public needs to know about the operation of whatever camera in question, true I have tried the hyper program mode on my ist D and K10D, I have even taken the opportunity to program the e-dails how I want on the latter, and even long before that experimented with the multiple exposure on my MZ7, but.......do I really need a hands on guide that tells me if I press three buttons simutaneously I automatically order a 16X20 print from Hong Kong budget Labs, or whatever?
I would sooner be taking pictures than trying to remember something I remembered in a book that probably (for most part) duplicates the manual

Those are VERY nice.

As for Copyright, actually posting anyones images without their consent is a bit naughty, I think you did the right thing in simply posting the links.

Nice one Dave, are you sure the military weren't testing something

PS when are we going to get another yorkshire meet off the ground?

I stand corrected, but what a silly way to display an image

I take it all back, those are tremendous shots

I cant work out if your post was to be taken seriously

Some of the shots are very good for a newbie but c'mon, most of them resemble the snaps we got in that superman game recently posted by photo*ist

He needs to be a little quicker on the shutter

One thing to bear in mind is you can always soften shots from a sharp lens but sharpening up from a soft lens is a bit tricky

TBH I think you could do worse than stick with the kit lens until you get used to the camera and discover just what you really need in the lens line up.

The humble MZ5n also supported power zooms, they were a bit of a drain on the batteries I understand.

I'm just waiting for the knock on the door it'll be either the police or the local dealer
