If you know which photos you like the best it shouldn't be too difficult to say why, and to win it you must have a some idea what you're doing. That leaves the rest of the entries. Just say a few words why you thought they didn't make the grade; what you like about them and what you didn't like about them.

So go on, give it a go!

Ah, its release seems to have been overtaken by the K-3; pretty sure I'd heard of the Q7 before the K-3 was (officially) announced. It looks to be available on the SRS site and others link but not heard of any here talking about it. Suppose eveyone's either broke having got a K-3 or saving up for one and the new Q has become overshadowed.

Images 1-5 not showing up here. May work better if you upload directly to this site?

So...can anyone recommend any beginners' books or web sites to learn from?

I want to know how it all works - the relationship between aperture, film speed, focal length, depth of field...
There are some useful tutorials here:

Your picture will never be any less detailed as a result of diffraction.
Sounds about right, providing the sensor is the same size which of course it is effectively with all the Pentax DSLRs to date. Diffraction would have less of an effect with a 24x36 sensor and increase with a smaller one.

Fallout from Adobe security breach continues... link

Not for me thanks. Adobe users passwords and accounts were compromised. More head in the cloud than creative cloud.

Pleased to hear you have recovered and now able to run a K-3. Have you given them up? (The fags that is!)

Best wishes,

See what you mean! Not withstanding the blurry OOF images, the photographs shown in the gallery give no clue what they are of so the whole thing seems pretty pointless really. An odd blurry image that might have a special meaning one might live with, but not the whole lot!
