What you can do is choose a subject and then take a series of images at every shutter speed from 1 second through to, say, 1/60 second. Shoot them both with SR on and off, and see what difference it makes for you.

Lens capes are available but I've never actually used one.

looked on the net about the 50 135 seems to be loads about sdm failure has this been addressed ???

I think that's very old news now and was related to some early batch issues.

Looking forward to an exciting 2011, so in the meantime I hope everyone has a fantastic Christmas and New Year!

I have attempted this sending of good wishes in three languages elsewhere on the forum...

It was a balmy 1.5C here today, almost a summer's day! No water out of the washers though as the journey through Wales found temperatures down to -10.5C.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New year

Nadolig Llawen a Blwyddyn Newydd Dda

Gelukkig kerstfeest ende beste wensen voor het nieuwe jaar.

Many thanks Lidy for finding out something at least. It's a shame indeed that Stefan doesn't seem to want to stay with us, but if he ever changes his mind he is most welcome to return and no comment or embarrassment need by feared.

I too am disappointed though for those who put effort into the competition. It may be better to stick with competitions that are in plain sight of everyone.

AF: like the M series but, but with an AF motor in the lens

This line could be potentially misleading to the uninitiated. This only applies to one lens, the early AF lens for the ME-F camera. It has nothing to do with modern AF lenses and is a one-off. To call it an AF series is actually just making it up!

Correct Jon, please move the non-Pentax chat to PM or e-mail.

The following lenses will work with some limitations:
Screw thread with M42 adapter.
SMC Pentax
SMC Pentax-M

All later lenses will work fine. A series lenses are manual focus only and of course remain so. Autofocus lenses are all fully compatible.

Not sure how that would work if there's no magazine, but maybe we'll move on to having "Editor's Choice" selections and so on, like EPZ. It all takes time and there are planty of ideas floating about. At the moment Dan seems to be doing quite a lot of work getting Articles and News up and running.
