Pentax offer a selection of screens that are actually designed for the job.

Is the image very large? I'm having no problem uploading to the Gallery or competitions.

Sorry IT have not responded yet, but they have their hands full at the moment getting EPZ back up to speed after the upgrade.

That review wasn't a bad one. No lens is perfect and the 17-70mm seems above average in most respects.

I think I'd consider it alongside the new 18-135mm.

I doubt very much that it was a delaying tactic, but obviously have no idea what went wrong.

Still, as long as you were paid that's the main thing.

That's interesting - what was the perceived problem with the receipt?

No need for any shame, photography takes a long time to absorb and we never stop learning.

If you get a chance, do post some pictures in the Your Photos section, or in the Gallery.

Well you might, but assuming you use a tripod, the 2 second delayed action to remove and chance of vibration and stop down to f16 the difference will be academic more than actual. Unless you are making wall-sized prints.

My totally unsubstantiated and random wonder is whether or not slight misplacement or distortion of the low pass filter actually caused Newton's rings.

So in fact the models are not that small. I would have thought the kit zoom lens focuses close enough to cater for that?

It gets worse...a Nikon screen cut down and put into a Pentax camera? Maybe it's just me, but I'm amazed that anyone would even consider it as an option.
