Thanks.

50 years of trying to take great images. about 10% there !!!!!!!

Just got the flash.

Understand if one is not very careful, the flash can get locked on the hot shoe !!!!! Lock Pin breaks. As tight as this is, I don't need any pin.

The cover goes on and off much easier than flash.

Being a new owner of a Pentax K10D and a AF-540FGZ flash, I am wondering if anyone else has a fit problem with flash to camera.

My combination is very very tight going in and out of hot shoe. Never had this problem with any other camera/flash combo. I realize they have to be a good fit, however this is way too tight.

Is this common ?

Any solutions other than sending back to Pentax ?

Thanks, RG.

Thanks.

I don't usually adjust my images at all, apart from maybe a very little extra sharpening.

However on this image, same car show I used DxO Film Pack Trial to change to the look of film. I don't remember which type film I chose. There are a bunch of different brands and types of film including many classics.

The DxO Film Pack supplements DxO Optics Pro, which I have also tried. Both are incredible programs, which I plan on purchasing.

It was a cloudy day, with some Sun breaks. My first outing with the K10D.

Very small auto show, part of a city street fair. I took around 20 shots only of the top restored ones. I don't know about in the UK, but the restoration folk out here spend many thousands of dollars and years on these projects. Most of them will knock your socks off and make one wish one had a stable of these beasts to drool over.

Thanks to all for the kind comments.

RG.

Thanks,

You have some very nice shots as well.

I recently got a K10D and took some test shots at a local small auto show.
Only adjustment was a little sharpening.
Don't really see any negatives with this camera, or lens used (Sigma EX 17-35mm)

Still playing around with it, before I use it for Fire Dep't shots. Still using my other camera's for that.


Hope the links work this time.

Whoopee it worked.

Who would have ever thought the PC crowd would be alive and well down under.

Actually that's a very pleasant thought, the PC crowd down under. What a joy that would be.

Happy Christmas. HA HO, HA HO.

You are a bit late with your post. There are several images on the forum way before the crap on the sensor image. My old brain finally sorted it out.

I know you are down under, but you just have to get with the program.

I spend half my day bitching about the other half !!!! but it's fun pulling peoples strings and getting the reaction. It kind of sums them up.

Just a big Teddy Bear at heart.

Hope you got your insurance claim sorted without too much bitching !!!

Merry Christmas. Ho Ho Ho.

So I can't be bothered !! Maybe I am just having lots of senior moments, but I have spent much time trying to figure out how to do it, trying different sites.

It would be nice if one of the clever high IQ persons on here that commented, could explain in detail how to do it so simply. One lady was nice enough to give me some pointers the other day, which I tried. Didn't work.

As far as "hotshots" goes, I am the photographer for our Fire Dep't, the name has nothing to do with award winning images.
Bottom line. I can shoot up to 400-500 shots per incident and during training sessions. These all get processed by me. I don't have the time to mess around trying to post images. If you prefer to operate in an old fashioned way, be my guest. Sorry, I prefer a fast simple modern upload process.

By the way I just got the K10D. Have not used it on any incidents yet.

RG.

I think I will forget posting images until the site gets a 21st century upload program on it.
