WHOOPS!

sorry didnt see the "microquiz" in your post

but yes, they are good.

Daniel, have you tried www.micro-quiz.co.uk

Got this from the Clay Cross Exhibition programme

If you quote "CLAYCROSS" they work out to around £1 each (I am told)

A couple of the guys at my CC have used them and the results are damned good.

Hi
Wow, only been a registered user of this forum for about 15minutes and already found a thread to reply to.....

I think Camera clubs are an excelent way to improve ones photography, I joined my Local club "Leeds Co-operative Photographic Society" about three years ago and my work has improved 100%, we meet all year round with only a couple of weeks off for xmas and new year, we have guest speakers, members nights, dozens of competitions etc etc etc.
we are members of the PAGB and the YPU and have interclub and one on one battles with other local clubs. Anyone on this forum who lives in the Leeds area (uk) will be most welcome to come along and give us a go, we have a reputation for being the friendliest club around. Time for a shameless plug:

My advice, get out there and join a camera club, dont have one nearby? then create one.

PS sorry, realised we may have readers from outside the uk, PAGB, Photographic Alliance of Great Britain. YPU, Yorkshire Photographic Union

Just thought I'd add my two penneth.

I was lusting after the MZS when it was first released, but decided my good old MZ7 was good enough for what I wanted, surprise surprise, the MZ7 is FULLY compatable with FAJ lenses, now I am glad that I held off buying the MZS in the hope that Pentax would quickly release the digital verion of same body. I also have a very handy Sigma 28-200, this is very difficult to use in AV on my MZ5n due to the size of the lens and the diminutive size of its aperture ring, which like on the MZS needs to be set via said ring, On the MZ7 however......no problem, I just set it via the camera body, so YES Pentax did go extremely retro with the MZS, but maybe they figured it would be bought by pro's, and we all know pro's like to twiddle with their lenses!

split screens are available if you shop around.
Try this;

there are other advertisers occasionally, you may also want to check you get the tools for changing the screen included.

Wouldn't it be easier to just buy the Pentax remote? its only around £18 and mine fires my K10D, istD and MZ7, plus it fits in my camera bag a lot easier than any of my TV, VCR or DVD remotes
