I lost one hour's sleep last night so I'm far too tired to decide what MIA might be (missing in action?) but it hasn't been here. Now it's back we can all talk again.

Life isn't that bad really, you know, you might find the 645D is really very good when we get it...

Stay cheerful!

Does this mean you don't want a mug?

A friend called round for coffee and suddenly realised I was drinking out of my "Simply hold a Pentax" mug.

An amusing moment...

My opinion is that they look rather dull and could have been taken with anything. There's nothing there that would make me say "Wow!" and want to rush out and buy the lens.

Of course, that doesn't mean it isn't a terrfic lens, just that I'm not impressed by these particular pictures.

The first Kodak box camera gave a circular image. You could look at it that it wasted the corners of a square section of film....

My "gut feeling" is no, it's getting too way off. No white balance ever gets near 9300K, 6500K is much closer to daylight. And I'll bet your printer can't get even close.

The printer will have a mundane sounding setting for your paper, something maybe like "Photo Quality Glossy Film" or whatever else it says in the paper box instructions. That should do the trick.

I use Jessops Glossy Photo Paper with Epson inks in a 890 and a 1290s. I just follow the instructions and the prints turn out just fine. The printer settings are 2800dpi and -7 Magenta, with a gamma of 1.8 for colour prints.

I think you're getting over-complex with this.
