It depends on the tripod - some come with a detachable head, some don't. The cheaper the tripod the less likely you can change the head.

I bought the Velbon without a head as I'd got the Markins ballhead for a good price before getting the legs.

Enough of the invented words, already!

It's saturation!

From 'saturate'. Not 'saturise'
It's his Welsh accent coming through .

I like them as they are too. I'm another one who doesn't care much for cotton wool water.

With the lone tree it's a pity you couldn't get it from a lower angle so it was isolated against the sky. Lying down in the snow would have done it .

Don't we all!

If you give us an idea of your budget and whether you prefer say landscapes or macro or portraits then doubtless you will get lots of suggestions as to how best to spend your limited dosh.

Getting there? Father Ted the PU member?

Hi Sean, another program you could try, which is free, is Irfanview which will see your RAW photos and can convert them. You can also do some basic editing with it too.

There are some free photo editing programs out there too, such as Picasa, if you do a search.

Ha-ha!.. Thank you Gwyn. That was brilliant!. And I see that there are a whole series of them. I will watch them all.

I take comfort in the certainty that my Christmas sausage of dubious content sandwich, will have tasted better than Don's home made Canadian wine, will.
Glad you enjoyed it .

Well I guess gubak's posting the link here and on pentaxforums has had the desired effect.

We could do with a few more votes for the K-r too though .
