have just received my new K10...oh what a joy to be back using all my K mount pentax lenses and over the moon with the results!!!!! I realised that the K10 used lithium batteries so could not recconcile the comments from that man at Pentax. Thanks for your endeavours on my behalf...back to happy snapping again.......
Changing the subject, do you have any connection with Harold Hayles in Yarmouth :

The smilies seem to have a bug. Now you notice that you have a button and all the smilies opened.You can not click a smilie directly, otherwise nothing happens. First click the button to close, then click again to open. Now you can place a smilie.
Still some little things to repair,right :
Martin.

Would there be a way for the judge to comment on the individual photos as the week goes on, but for those comments to be visible to everyone else only after the competition has closed, or even better when the judge chooses to 'publish results'? That way, it saves having to cut and paste from a seperate document.
If this seems like a good idea, perhaps we could suggest it to the team.

The main issues are lack of light and obtaining focus.
The one below is Iso 400, 1/125sec and f 2.8 using a Sigma macro.
It was taken through glass (without a polarising filter).
The water in the tank is quite fast moving and the fish are very fast moving.
A lot more light would be a good starting point, but I do not think that the owners of the fish would appreciate me 'blasting' them with a flashgun or two !
