eh my mum just told me shes not letting me buy any more lenses for now anyway (even though all those wanted were out of the price range

So basically that means no 90/100/105mm macro(depending on the manufacturer) but a 50-200 instead

I prefer primes as well

Yeahh.. I re-read it, I just couldnt be bothered changing my post

Yeah, theyre around the price I was expecting.
His postage prices are ridiculous though.. £25? Should only cost about £7.

Pentax needs to make a few less expensive zooms
I mean, the 50-200 and 70-300 are entry level
I Kinda want something for walking around, and a prime around 85/135/200 would suit me just fine you see
Maybe Ill check out some manual focus lenses.

A prime FA/FA* telephoto on sale
And to be quite honest, i'd like to - what are the prices on these lenses?
Specifically,
SMC 85mm f1.4 (IF) FA*
SMC 135mm f2.8 IF FA
SMC 200mm f2.8 ED(IF) FA*

I dont understand, surely its just promoting pentax?

Anyway, simply put electrical tape or masking tape over the logos, problem solved.

When I say terrible quality
I dont mean terrible, just worse than photoshop compression.
I shall take some examples if you want, but its not just noise and lower quality
If the white balance is wrong, its hard to sort it out, and highlights/shadows are often worse quality in my opinion, compared to RAW.

Maybe i'm completely wrong, but the one time I shot in jpg, I didnt like the quality of the results (this was just some things round the house), went back and shot in RAW and it worked out alot better.

And generally the in-camera compression to jpg leaves you with terrible quality, from experience.

Those shots are very impressive, the colours really stand out in the first few.
I can see noise creeping in the 4th, and the last two

The 5th shot is incredible considering its 1600ISO!

Great shots. I take it the exhibition was for the 2008 opening, friday/saturday?

Hahah

I personally didnt see why someone said the double yellows should have been removed, they drew your eye in, in one sense.

Removed glare from building, darkened sky to compensate, removed litter, bumps in road and double yellows, slightly altered levels removing the greenish/cyan tinge.

I dunno if its better or not, it depends on what the church really looks like, but I thought i'd have a play (hope you dont mind)
