I have a Pentax bag -it came free with my Ds. It is not big enough for me, but my husband now uses it with the Ds. At least it doesn't have Pentax plastered all over it.
I use a Tamrac rucksack or a Lowepro shoulder bag, depending on how much stuff I need/want to carry.
The Tamrac will carry my tripod comfortably too.
I am looking into other bags as well at the moment, something less obviously a camera bag to replace the Lowepro, a Jill-E maybe, and maybe a ThinkTank bag for air travel.

Congratulations. Enjoy route 66 - it is great fun to drive, I'd do it again tomorrow if I could.
Did you go to Cahokia Mounds whilst in St Louis? I wasn't too impressed with the arch, but then I'm a claustrophobic.
Lots of photo ops along the way. If you get the chance in OKC go to the cowboy museum which is interesting.

Well done Martin! I still want to but it, the house that is - then I'll buy your photo to hang in it.

Peter you can get them for the rest of the world -I did for not only my town but my house! On the left hand side you can click on from world map and zoom right in on where you live then get the tables.

Well the news I hear is a new K30D will have the same sensor as the K20D, just more bells and whistles attached, Samsung are also coming with the equivalent. It will be announced in Spring. They are both also planning a K300d, maybe with the same sensor again.
More interestingly, if they use the Pentax fit for it, is the Samsung micro 4/3rds camera that is promised for later this year. I cannot imagine they would go with a different lens fitting for it, but I suppose they may do.
It would be a perfect in pocket walkaround.

Where are you in the Netherlands? Can you add your whereabouts to your profile for us please?
Welcome to the forum btw.
Maybe you should consider a trip to Urk sometime, or have a look on Kieskeurig to see who else has them in stock, and is maybe easier for you to get to.

The camera and computer must be the same time zone at least. That is a downside of it all in my experience. I would normally set the camera clock to my destination time, but since I now geotag photos I can't do that, which means unless I reset the time on all my photos after tagging them, photos taken in the US for example will always have the wrong time on them.
The Tagger itself uses UTC for it's logging - the program on the computer then converts that to the time zone on the computer.
Whilst we tend to take a laptop on holiday with us it is nowhere near powerful enough to do Raw to jpeg conversions (not that I'd want to spend half my holiday doing that anyway), so all my photos get geotagged at home on my home computer.

There are better taggers than the Sony out there if you haven't already bought one. The Sony does not always get a good lock on the satellite apparently.
As Peter says you need two pieces of software for tagging normally, one to read the data from the tagger and put it into the right file format, and a second to link the tag to your jpeg photo - they don't normally work with RAW files.
It is important to have your computer and camera synchronised or the tagging will be awry.
I use a Qstarz tagger, with their software and then use locr, a free program, for the tagging. It works very well.

One for the Dutch members.
I have heard, from a pretty reliable source, than Rabbit Hill, that well known Dutch camera shop, is as good as bankrupt . Whether they can continue trading, will start up again, or will close is at this point unclear.
If they do close I suppose there may be bargains to be had, but I really hope they keep going, and that this rumour is just that, a rumour.

I am reluctant to use the Dutch name here just in case it's not true. Wouldn't want to get into trouble. But you all know who I mean

I know that Barrie - they get removed and dried out regularly too. Fortunately they are rarely needed.
