I like to keep the JPEG output quite natural, so I use the Natural setting and +1 to sharpness. Anything else is done in Photoshop.

According to the blurb it's a benefit of membership, as it always was before, so I don't know any more than that. If that's still the case it could be quite a useful benefit.

You'll need the number if you want the 20% discount from JP Solutions on your Pentax repairs and servicing.

The thing to do is to download your images to your computer, perhaps using a card reader by preference. After that, once you have also backed up then the card can be formatted in the camera ready to be used again.

There's no need to transfer the files to a computer and then keep them for viewing on the camera, it seems to have caused a problem anyway.

Don't format the cards in the computer, do it in the camera to avoid any further glitches.

The haze filters are a bit orange (brwon) from colour but from all that i've read they recommend red or yellow filters for B&W so how Adams came with using a blue filter?
womble actually said a "minus blue" filter, which is deep yellow, orange or red in terms of black and white images.

For colour film, a light straw colour, perhaps an 81A to warm the scene as well.

It might be instructive to join an image library and find out what real rates are.

They won't take a request for £5000 seriously. A realistic amount just might be paid.

Time for one or the other to make a glorious retreat against an enemy advancing in total disorder.
