Don,

No, I don't have account.

Thanks for info anyway.

Gywn.

I finally did it using Photo Bucket.

9 test images now on the Photo section.

Still a pain in the neck. One image ok, but multiple at one at a time !!!!

Unless there is another way ?

Thanks for your help.

RG.

Gwyn,

Thanks very much.

Boy what a bunch of messing around. Why doesn't this site have a simple image upload program ?

RG.

I am new to this forum and would like some advice on how to post images.

I use an iMac and normally can drag and drop files, appears to be impossible on this site. Or maybe upload images, don't see anyway to do that either.

Thanks, RG.

If you use a Mac.

Graphic Converter is real good.

I rarely do anything other than very light adjustments, I like natural out the camera images best. If I do, I use Aperture, CS2/Bridge or GC.

Aperture is my favorite.

Picasa is a great basic program, pity it's not available for Mac, although I understand Google is working on it.

Delkin are the best quality after market batteries for the K10D. Cost around $19.00 (US)

Watch out for the cheap brands, they can do some serious camera damage.

I have a KM7D and the K10D. I swap Minolta/Pentax batteries all the time between the two cameras, no problems. Just make sure I use correct charger, they look identical.

Both bags looked ok to me.

Although I do have to agree it can be done with the Slingshot if one is not careful. Appears pretty impossible with the Tamrac.

It can get pretty hectic taking Fire Dep't images, even though I use two camera's I still have to do fast lens changes at times.

Do not need even the remote possibility of dumping gear in that environment .

I have been using one big shoulder bag, very heavy and not handy enough to get to equipment fast

RG.

Purchased the Tamrac item listed below yesterday. Black/Gray.

It does not mention the fact that it will also hold a couple of lenses and a flash.

I was going to get the Slingshot, however I understand it is easy to dump your kit out of it if not very careful !!

The Velocity 9 x - Pro Sling Pack is the largest version of our popular sling packs. It holds a pro digital or film SLR with a grip (such as Canon's EOS 1D Series or Nikon's D2 Series) and a 70-200mm zoom lens attached. Inside the main compartment, the camera with lens attached is suspended on two vertical, foam-padded dividers that are internally reinforced with rigid plastic. The Velocity 9x can be carried comfortably like a backpack, but when swung around to the front, the secure zippered Quick Flip Top opens away from the body for fast and convenient access to camera gear. A well-padded sling strap comfortably distributes the weight, but need not be removed to quickly access photo equipment. A Tuck-A-Way™ waist belt allows the Velocity 9x to be used comfortably during vigorous activities such as hiking or biking. The front pocket has organizer pockets inside to keep a mobile phone, PDA or photo accessories within easy reach. It also features Tamrac's US-patented Memory & Battery Management System™ that uses red flags to identify available memory cards and batteries from ones that are used up. A pocket inside the lid stores filters and lens caps. Customize this sling pack with Tamrac's Modular Accessory System™ components.

My comment was only intended to make a point that one does not have to have the best education to shoot great images. We are all surrounded by people who do wonderful things during their life time. Most are just ordinary folk, like a good friend I have who recently donated a kidney to a total stranger. He is not well educated and I don't believe the extensive pre-tests he went through at the hospital included a spelling test !!

I believe most of us do not like to be corrected in public. If someone makes a spelling mistake, so what. There are many more important things in life to fret about.

As loog as yu ar intresed in fotografey thets al thet maters to me.

However I do understand that correct spelling makes one such a better photographer. After all just check on the history of Henry Ford and many other successful people.
