LZW is a TIFF option that compresses losslessly. You'll find the option when you Save As.

The downside is that images will take longer to open and may not open on all computers.

On the other hand, you could save as a best quality JPEG.

Multiple flashes using B is one technique. The other is using an LED torch. Some of these are incredibly bright, but the light can be rather blue/green.

Some MZ camera bodies will do this for you, should you want something more versatile than the A3/A3000.

Why not contact Pentax directly? If you have good ideas there must be someone who can pass them through the system in an effective manner.

Dell 2209WA is the 22" version we use. Excellent right out of the box.

I notice you're in London. I just had two packets from London also posted 8th December maybe the SE is one of the major problem areas.

Even if you can, running two systems is not IMHO the best way. If something is needed for a particular purpose, maybe hire it.

If people are running Pentax and Nikon cameras together then there is however some ergonomic logic to that. Pentax and Canon don't mix in the same way.

The 16th is the black background - black is black! This slight anomaly occurs because on EPZ the background isn't black.

I have made a couple of claims in the past few years, but very few items go permanently missing. If the claim is valid they send a cheque - that's my experience anyway. Get a form from the Post Office and be careful to follow the instructions precisely.

Afterthought: if it's SD then you have a tracking number - have you tracked it online?

This is probably a moot point as Pentax lenses in general are of a very high calibre. There are lots of fine lenses in all the various series.

In real world terms, as opposed to the optical laboratory, there are not many pitfalls.
