I thought about trying something like this a while ago, but couldn't figure out how to keep the iris open!

Nice, but not as flat as a Pentax!

The lens choice was an after thought John, I use my 18-200 for 'all the above'.

But for preference I'd use a 300mm prime for birds (if I had one) but the Tamy 70-300 will have to do.

The SMC-M/A 50mm tends to get used for portrait, but produces good macro(ish) results!

I'm more interested in what people shoot, that's all.

Just nosey I suppose.

I'm glad they're macro shots Clarky!

Considering the juggling you must be doing to focus, they're pretty damn good!

The phrase "Bugger!" comes to mind.

OK, so the poll options are a bit hit and miss, I couldn't think what to put so chose a wide subject for each one!

What do you shoot Gartmore?

Looking through the gallery it's clear that macro shots are currently in favour.

Previously we had wild animals, before that birds(Hi Scott!).

It's obvious that different styles need different lenses, I hope you agree with the poll suggestions.

So what do you personally prefer to shoot, for your own pleasure?

Being in Qatar a UK warranty would be as usefull as a US one, or Japanese come to that.

If you're returning the camera to the country of origin for a claim then postal costs are your only worry.

If, however you tried getting the work done local on, say, a US warranty would the local importer carry it out and claim from Pentax US?

I've not had any problems with my Pentax Kit, all UK bought.

I did have a warranty claim on a Samsung pocket camera, again UK bought< which they couldn't sort out. In short they told me it was my problem!

Camera went back to store and was replaced with a Panasonic.

UK warranties don't always work!
