Is this why we need Shake Reduction?

We've been here before, but my feeling is that Pentax know how much product they have available to sell and also how they want to spend their advertising budget.

In the former case, it's possible that they can't produce enough product to truly take on Canon and Nikon, so they tailor things accordingly.

In the latter case, exhibition space is very expensive so maybe they prefer a different route. Pentax may not have been there in previous years, but on other stands they were present.

The Power Zoom is operated by turning the zoom ring on the lens. It will work manually in the normal way, or with the motor when the further you turn the ring the faster the zoom.

There is also a switch on the lens that will perform a few tricks when used with a suitable body.

I am currently offering a 28-80mm Power Zoom lens that has been overhauled by Asahi Optical within the last year.

It was a joke that the answer was 42 and eventually the question turns out to be "what do you get when you multiply 6 by 9?" - the punch line being, "I always knew there was something fundamentally wrong with the Universe."

I can see the idea, but I'm not sure that even mock threatening with a knife is a good way to go. I wouldn't have done that.

Technically a little harsh, losing detail in the dark suit and washing out the dress.

But the idea of doing imaginative different shots is excellent and if you keep an open mind and take advantage of situations as they arise you should develop a nice style that people will like.

Nothing has disappeared from my album - I have a space allocation and that's it.

The best bodies are the MZ-3 and MZ-5 followed by the other small numbers. The MZ-S is a higher price bracket altogether.

If you want traditional controls and a shutter speed dial then the MZ-3 and MZ-5 are spot on.

Why not just upload an image 800 pixels wide to Flikr, or, indeed, use Photobucket which does the job seemingly with fewer problems?

Is a dehumidifier a viable option?
