I am actually logged in on two computers at once - main PC and laptop - and don't need to put in the login details unless I've left one for a long time.

I wouldn't stay logged in to Internet banking though, nor would it let me!

DSLRs won't die for a very long time. They are needed for a variety of professional work that an EVF or screen are just not suitable for.

After all, we can still buy folding cameras, rangefinder cameras, large format cameras....it takes a very long time indeed for a camera type to disappear.

The exceptions are the small amateur formats that didn't stay the disatance, such as 126, 110 and Disc. These all had serious technical limitations.

Use WR bodies and lenses.

I've locked the other thread - please only post once to avoid getting two sets of replies on the same subject.

I'm not sure why this has resurfaced now, but do at least be courteous to each other. Thank you.

Perhaps we should think of the indicators more as "activity since last visit" rather than "unread" as it seems they reset as soon as we leave the site.

It's not necessary to log out, why not stay logged in?

OK, K10D and K20D - very poor for IR. K-r and K-5 very good for IR. This of course relates to using the cameras as-is and creating the IR effect in Photoshop.

As for focusing proper IR through an R72 filter, lenses are not corrected for IR so the focus will be quite some way out. IR correction markes on older lenses are for 720nm films and still need further correction if 950nm films are used with an R95 filter. How this relates to digital I'm not sure, but using manual focus and LiveView could be the answer.
