I dont think thats such a bad name for a camera that we all think is the dogs bo*****s

Very nice, but if Pentax have gone to the trouble to tool up for producing this body then why not release it, unless of course it doesn't work, or is a bit of a no starter like the full frame DSLR.

And as the name has been brought up can someone enlighten me as to the correct pronunciation of "Asahi" I have heard it said so many different ways!

Doesn't everyone crank up the res as high as the monitor will go :
Unless of course their visually impaired in which case its to what suits them.
Now where did my monitor go

Agreed, does anyone know of a similar type bag that will take a Bigma?

Hope you didn't get your feet muddy on the way home

Well its not a mind blowing competition winning shot, but apart from that I think its just fine as it is, probably couldn't have done any better myself.

Have you tried the mainbord/PC/laptop manufacturers website for updates for using vista with their boards?

As Steve has pointed out the problem is probably with the actual USB connection/port? and not with the device your trying to connect.

I got this with my K10D and 80-320

Is it just me or does anyone else think theres a bit too much rain on the rose, IMHO I think it distracts too much from the flower? also the nearest petals are slightly out of focus.

Sorry to burst your bubble Peter, but I would have prefered either all of the flower in focus or a bit more "creative" out of focus areas.

Very nice shot though, exposure is fine, composition is fine, the manipulation is fine, its just a pity the weather wasn't

Frame it and hang it on the wall and everyone will think its wonderfull , just dont enter it into any competitions

Your works coming along nicely Pete, well done. Of course most of the credit has to go to the model , she seems a natural born poser
