Are you sure that the 10-20 is the lens for your landscape shots? Unless you always include a fair bit of foreground the shots don't work imho.

I sold mine as I just didn't like most of landscapes I took with it. They didn't look right. It isn't always possible to find something foreground filling for landscapes. I now prefer to either make do with the 17mm or shoot a panorama - which gives a better feel for the landscape than everything squashed into the traditional 3:2 format.

Generally I find the 17-70 plenty wide enough for landscape work (though I am contemplating 14 or 15mm prime :wink.

I can use my 50-135 2.8 quite comfortably in low light without flash, and think the DA35 would be fast enough for most situation. Indeed I can use the F4 17-70 in most low light situations pretty well without flash too, and without upping the ISO too much.

Well someone has to around here .

Have a good day!

You could consider a L-bracket. Really Right Stuff and Kirk amongst others, make them.
I'm not sure how useful any of them would be with a monopod though.

You have 4 weeks in which to conjure up some sun, warmth and blue skies.

On second thoughts - I'll pack my thermals

Fog? It has been lovely again here today, not as warm as yesterday when it was 16, but still very pleasant.
Getting colder over the next couple of days though.

Do you mean this Dan? That is not the standard strap.
The Pentax neoprene strap may be more comfortable than the standard one.

The strap supplied with Pentax cameras is not as good as the one I got with my Ds, which was quite long and had two handy pockets for the remote and an SD card. I used it on my Ds and the K20D as well, but then I decided an OpTech was just more comfortable. Plus I like the anonymity of it.
I suspect a good shoulder strap is even more comfortable.

I looked at the Rally 7 too. I really like the look of it, but it doesn't seem to have a luggage sleeve so you can slip it over the handle of a suitcase, like the ThinkTank and Lowepro versions do.
I'd mainly want it for when I'm flying as it would be a better shape than the Expedition backpack I now use. The luggage sleeve would just make it that bit more convenient.

Both Domke and Tenba do inserts which you can use in any messenger style bag (or coolbag/nappy bag/handbag). Not quite as classy a solution as the Photojojo option, but possibly more flexible.

There are even instructions on the web for making them yourself, so you could have them tailored to your needs.

An expensive option but one which swallows a lot of stuff in the ThinkTank Urban Disguise 60. The Lowepro Classified series is similar. I'm tempted by the Classified 250, since it will also carry the netbook, but may yet make my own solution if I get enthusiastic enough.

Thanks for the photos Karma. It doesn't look like my QR plate would fit on it sadly, but for anyone who doesn't use a QR plate it certainly looks like a good option, especially at that price!

Looks like I'll be sticking with what I have.
