In surfing the web I came across a page on High dynamic range, apparently it can be used with the K20D camera to acheive fill in when in a backlighting situation. How would I go about setting the camera to use high dynamic range?

For some time I have been trying to purchase the K10D cd/dvd? as advertised on Amazon. It appears that this tutorial is not available outside the USA.
When I contacted Amazon they said it could not be shipped outside the USA!
Has anyone got a copy they want to sell? or you know what ( cant say it here coz I dont want to get banned!)

On 24.7.08 I sent in my first post re taking action photos indoors( wrestling). I would like to thank Justgetoutand ride, Rodneyy, unlocker and Pentaxian for responding. Thank you all very much, your replies are very much apprecialted. I have tried to respond via add a comment (at least 4 times) but it has not appeared on the pentax user forum. If any one can tell how to make a thread It would be appreciated.
Thank you all, you know Pentax users are a really beautiful group of people! lets keep it that way.

I have bought a new K20D camera, it has an 18-55mm lens, I have
also bought a tamron 70-300mm zoom lens. I would like to take some
photos of friends who are amateur wrestlers at their gym. The gym is
about 50ft long by 40ft wide. The gym has a training mat covering the entire area of the gym instead of a boxing or wrestling ring. Along the length of the wall on one side are two opaque windows about 3ft by 2ft wide.

I would welcome any advice on camera settings for taking photos in the gym
particularly as my attempts to photo my friends a few weeks ago were a complete disaster. Pictures taken were underexposed,too bright and when using flash the battery was heavily drained. I tried using an iso of 400 to prevent use of flash,Tv(shutter priority ) was also used to try and capture the movement with less than satisfactory result. Any hopes of having some decent photos to show have evaporated. Any advice would be welcome.

Joe
