Not so boring after all...there are few if any places where a good image cannot be made.

Looking at the ads I can see now, they are all photography related, mostly Pentax.

If you have particular concerns, then do please make a Report.

Slide film: Probably Fuji Velvia

Colour print Film: ant 200 ISO from Kodak or Fuji should be fine

Black and White print film: Kodak Tr-X developed in an Acutance developer for sharp crisp grain.

But the thing about films is that they have character, so you need to try a few and see what sort of result you like best. Black and white films are best developed at home because the type of developer also changes the nature of a film. For example, Tri-X in FX-39 looks very different to Tri-X in D76.

Sue was talking about Photoshop in general and CS2 in particular, but versions from 7 onwards offer this feature.

Looks like just what you've been waiting for, which is great news.

The Motor Drive is faster, but much bulkier and also very rare and expensive.

Then there's the 250 exposure back and by the time you've shot through that at 5fps you've used a lot of film and it's cost even more money.

It makes you realise one of the great advantages of digital photography.

"A place to put your for private sales and wanted camera adverts. Please only use this for Pentax related equipment. Any non photo adverts or trade ads will be deleted"

Please remember this is a place for the adverts and for the replies to the adverts. Posts that list other non-Pentax gear or that stray from the purpose of the section may be deleted.

If communicating by PM it can be helpful to other members if the item being discussed is mentioned. It can also be helpful when an item is sold that the OP finishes off the thread by telling us. Feedback can then follow as appropriate.

Yes, real character is entirely possible.

Enjoy the camera and I hope you enjoy the forum just as much.

Looks like an interesting concept, especially if you take lots of portraits. It also looks to be quite rare, so maybe £100 is OK. For an ordinary zoom of these focal lengths it would be very expensive.

Do you already have a spare mount for it? That could add some serious expense.

"Lifetime guarantee" means lifetime of the product, so if a reasonable life expectancy of an item was 3 years, then that would be the warranty period.

The trouble is it's delightfully vague...
