You can call into your local Jessops as well - it's a normal stock item.

Or even to shoot JPEG instead. It's issues like this that are one of the many reasons I have avoided RAW capture.

Some flashes do, unless the manufacturer filters it out.
The Pentax Nocta, from the Spotmatic era, was such a flash. It was covered with an opaque IR filter so no light could be seen. The special 300mm lens and electronic viewfinder meant that covert photography could be undertaken. The screen provided showed the image in pale shimmery green....the picture itself was shot on IR film.

The K10D is a very capable bit of kit at an extraordinary price. I would just go for it before the supplies run out...
I won't be upgrading just yet either. In a while I'm sure K20D prices will fall.

It would be nice to see a B&W version of 2 as I think the older face has the character for it.

We had a portrait shoot at Rivington Gallery last night. Here's a couple of shots that I was quite pleased with.
Kelly was lit by just three candles and this hand held shot was made possible by SR, ISO 1600 and a FA 50mm lens used at f1.4
Norman was shot more conventionally with studio flash and using the DA 16-45mm lens.
Comments welcome!

The reason that I don't like them is that any scene can be full of conflicting lines and it's often necessary to make the picture look straight when it isn't.
In any event I'm happier without a tripod, so unless it's macro work it wouldn't be relevant. I always use a tripod for macro work.
