That said if your in a studio set up and the camera is continually focusing on peoples feet rather than the face it doesn't sound too good really?
If that was happening I'd seriously be looking at my photographic skills. There's absolutely no need for that to be the case. That said if your in a studio set up and the camera is continually focusing on peoples feet rather than the face it doesn't sound too good really?

Well go easy on the Latin as well. My Latin teacher described my performance as "abysmal" which at 12 years old I wasn't quite sure what that was about. I did look it up in the dictionary though.

English only I'm afraid, otherwise nobody will know what's going on. A bit of Latin now and again is OK.

What I'm saying, without starting to get into details that aren't really PU relevant, is that other forums dedicated to other makes are full of plenty of problems, some much worse than anything we've experienced from Pentax. For example, a complete recall of a new lens, oil in shutter mechanisms, autofocus problems.....
However, the 67 and 645 systems seem relatively trouble free, as do Hasselblad.
In other words, don't expect the grass to be greener.

The wildlife shots are very good, but the closer ones of flowers not so much so. They look a bit unsharp to me.
The owl shot looks like the focus point is a bit too close, the eye is always the thing and the eye should sing out at us. It does with the snake!

It's an attractive proposition, isn't it? But it is always an imitation if the price is going to be realistic.

However, for just about £200 Dell make some amazing IPS screen monitors. These have a gentle look to the eye, better than iMac IMHO, but superb sharpness.
Ours are the Dell 2209WA.
