What I had in mind was maybe where someone makes other versions of an image. Just go Start>Search and select image files and search using part of the file name so that it picks up all the variants.

So, for example, "Jenny at Sea" and "Jenny at Sea Web Version" would both be found looking up "Jenny at"

Sometimes we buy software when something useable is already built into Windows for free. It all depends what we are trying to find in this case.

I do sometimes use this search facility, but not often as I usually know where something is to be found.

Yes, thanks for that, it's one possibility.

I'm curious as to why from time to time people ask for serial numbers of cameras on eBay. I can imagine maybe they want to know where in a production run a camera lies, but are there other reasons?

But I'm even more curious as to why some sellers are very reluctant to give complete numbers. Why would this be? What could anyone possibly do with a serial number that would count as "nefarious purposes"?

Plus 20% discount on Pentax repairs.

You could ask Pentax, but I would interpret that as meaning if you spend £650 and over you get £50 cashback, until you reach the next specified spend level when the amount increases.

Why not just use the Windows Search facility?

Can anyone give me a status update for conditions around Helmsley, Yorkshire?

The thing that strikes me about this is that the global setting will be factory set against a known standard. We wouldn't know if a lens we selected conformed to that known standard, so we'd be setting our camera out of kilter more than likely.

If you sold that camera on, the buyer could be very disgruntled to find that their lenses were not focusing properly....

In any event, if the camera is so far off that the individual lens adjustment isn't enough, then something else apart from AF adjustment might be faulty, so I'd be inclined to return it for an engineer to fix.

If you want to sell it here offering a realistic price will be the most helpful thing for you. eBay might fetch you £500 or so, but then there's the cost of fees, which is substantial these days.

I'm just pointing out that things sell much better if a price is quoted.

Not sure what you're getting at here K10D, do please elucidate. :
