I remember when someone (Gwyn?) suggested we create the welcome section and we all thought it was a great idea!


K.
Guilty m'lud .

I don't welcome everyone I admit.

When people do a mass greet I just skip those postings, as I do others which don't appeal, when I click recent activity. If I read them all I'd probably never get anything else done.

Do any of the instructions books also say why they say this? The Pentax ones don't, AFAIK.
P139, K-5 manual

I find I have to do far less PP with the K-5 than I ever did with the K20D. The IQ is to me, therefore, superior.

I also prefer the size and weight of it and the general ergonomics of it to the K20D.

I am a hobby photographer. Not a serious amateur and certainly nowhere near professional level. Often (usually) producing no more than average photos.
But I have a K-5. I love it. So much better in so many ways than the K20D.

If you don't like the K20D and can afford a K-5 then I would say buy one.

Who cares what labels reviewers want to stick on us? If we did we wouldn't be shooting Pentax .

It also switches off in wireless flash mode but not in normal flash mode, I can't imagine why.
Not in my experience it doesn't. My camera is quite often set to wireless flash, and SR works normally.

Mostly RAW but sometimes JPEG and occasionally RAW+ too. It depends on many things.

I switched to RAW quite late on and still hate all the conversion work involved tbh.

hmmm OK - then why get 4 guitars - you can only play one at a time





Or am I totally mad ?
You are obviously mad.
Or have never had a guitarist in the house.

GBA is worse than LBA. trust me.

What guitars did you buy Hyram?

I too use FF - I try to avoid Google products as much as possible. Big brother is watching you and his name is Google.

I dont' know if i'm entitled to a refund or not, my account reads 31st Jan 2011. If i am then i agree with Fatspider put it in the pot and give it to charity.
Contact Dan as to your refund.
He can't make a donation to charity for you it seems - too complicated from a business point.

I donated my refund when it arrived.

Thanks again everyone. It has been a tough couple of days.
I'm just off to collect my husband now so it's going to be a tough evening too.

It has been hard walking Timber and explaining it all over and over to people who have asked where Silke is. Still that is one duty my husband can take over tomorrow.

Thanks everyone. Your messages have been a real comfort to me.

Probably Keef - he has the most amazing face, all lines and wrinkles with those astounding eyes staring out at you.
