Theres some fun stuff on their site which was sort of the point of the post, for some reason I keep loooking at the Hotshoe protector with the bubble level in it! http://www.lightcraftworkshop-shop.com/product/16
Trouble is I really don't know why I want it when I have a Tripod Head with three levels in it and a K7/K5

Thanks for the update Naim, I'm looking at the Flashguns again now and will get one when money allows, It's reasurring to know that Pentax keeps an eye on these things...
xbow it's not always the "Afterglow" of a Firmware update either!

lens lust (LBA) Has struck!
I want a 70mm DA Ltd
I want a 60-250mm DA*

I will entertain money swaps or whatever, I may also be persuaded to part with my K7 as part of any deal too but I have decided I must have the two Lenses above and my only Collateral are the three items mentioned

DA* 200, Used about twice with all the bits (Boxes Manuals Bags Caps Hood etc) as good as new!

Pics were Taken with the K7 which is also as good as new and just less than a thousand Shots on it with ACMAXX Screen protectors on it from day one.

Mail me here and lets see if we can make my dream happen

Last of the Nikon Gear Holdovers! (Promise!)
I used to have enough Nikon gear to fill the two Vertexs
Doubt now even if I could afford to fill em (Which I can't!)that I could carry either (Bad Back and Arthritis), so reluctantly they must go:arrow:
Lowepro Vertex 200 AW £75 Shipped anywhere in the UK
Lowepro Vertex 100 AW £60 Shipped anywhere in the UK
Lowepro Orion AW £45 Shipped anywhere in the UK

The two Vertexs have never been used in anger, I think but I'm not sure so can't sell em as new.
All are in Brilliant nick and any marks is just dust/muck, for which you will be charged extra

Hi Gwyn,
Yeah that looks to be it's one big downside, the light ones a Kilo my Acratechs a Pound, huge difference...
Hi Algenon,
You could be right there, The more I look at it the more I think about what you said, maybe it's just got too much going on?
I really would like an extended try of one to see if I could live with it but I think if I just added a Manfrotto/Acratech Levelling base to my GV2 I'd have all that I need for Landscaping.
It does look very impressive though...

Anyone seen it tried it?
Expensive I think but if you could just have one head for a tripod it may be the ticket?
I used to think my Acratech GV2 Was versatile...:arrow:
Not exactly light though.

Updated this A.M.
Just tried the Contrast AF and it does seem to be improved, no mention of any flash exposure fixes though, I don't use flash but may buy a decent one when money allows,so if anyone else has updated and does use them maybe you could comment?
All ISO sensitivity settings can be used on Bulb mode,
Compatible with SDXC memory card, Ain't got one of these yet but would like to know if this works too...:arrow:
