If anyone feels they don't want to get involved in a thread that asks for advice, then don't. Someone will be happy to take up almost any question.

If you haven't handled the 40D you might want to do so alongside a Pentax K20D, after which my guess is that you will be rather impressed by the high standards of Pentax construction.

Whatever you decide though, perhaps it is time to decide and then you can get on with the image makning, which is the point of it all.

AF systems cannot focus in every situation. Some examples are listed in the handbook.

There's still a place for manual focus and the human eye.

It doesn't matter who starts these threads, so no problem.

Wasn't there a thread going about copyrights, misuse of it and that strange building in Brussels that's copyrighted?
I can't find it so I think it's been deleted but when I left for work it was all fine and above board
I think you've just missed it Gareth, nothing's been deleted, but to be honest I'm not sure offhand which section it's in.

It'll turn up!

Don't worry, the current lenses are all the same and almost all the older ones will fit as well. You can take your time!

The first thing is to use your first lens until you start to find its limitations. This will then suggest what you need next.

For example, if you kept wishing you could focus closer, then a macro lens would be the answer.

So no rush and see how you go.
