Doc, the Iris at #3 would be my pick, followed by #4. The rose looks as if it may benefit from a boost in brightness / touch up in curves?

Not sure what the first flower is - a gerbera or like? It doesn't jump out at me as I thought it might, and I'm not sure why.

Double take for me! A statue?

I can see this as a mono conversion too Oggy - the background and the subject matter both suit.

Hi Kiwao,

If the hit and miss experience happens to you with a number of your lenses, then it is unlikely to be all of those lenses.

The K10d has never been a star performer with its autofocus (I have had one for nearly 4 years, so I'm speaking from personal experience).

I tend to use mine in manual focus mode - it's no big deal, just a habit you get back into.

As to the centre point indicator, you might think about putting the camera in for a clean and service? That way you can be confident about resolving those issues you've raised here.

Properly exposed shots with the K10 are as good as anything else for most things - it's still a good camera.

The depository for the usual repartee etc...

May I take this opportunity to make it very clear that the comp will be run solely by reference to the merits of the images entered. From what I've seen to date, that's also the way it has been conducted in the past.

Additionally, for the avoidance of any doubt, all (yes, you too) are welcome to enter. I will do my utmost to participate on this forum in an inclusive way, and I'm happy to believe that other players here will do the same. Again, from what I have seen to date, that's merely a confirmation of what happens now, nothing more.

Best of luck.

Helping out (I hope?) here, please don't think me presumptuous...
