"Just a thought, could it be that Pentax may be introducing a repalecement for the *ist-D at Photokina this year"

fingers crossed but i am not holding my breath i have had the ISTD since september last year and just love it of cause there is a few things i would like changed seeing the ISO speed in the view finder as well as the white balnce setting in there as well & a fine tune for the white balnce woulld be nice but there only "would be nice" things i have taken the istd to China, Rome as well on many motor bike rides all this with it living happly in my back pack never had a problem (shhh dont tell the camera that ) if by christmas or there about they havent brought out an replacement to better the istd then i will start looking for another istd to use as back up there is alway a shop some where that has old stock
oh one thing i would change is the name PLEASE pentax a good name next time cheers all greg

greg

Hi all just woundering can you post photos on this sight if so how
cheers greg

hi all looking at getting a basic studio light set up for digital (ISTD) and woundering if any one has used these Fluorescent Continuous Lights
http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=30088&item=751... to show and example the avantages i see are its a soft light , will travel better then an element type light + use a lot less power for the same light out put what are your thoughts or what do you use looking at portrait - full body and head shoulder style of work my own expeariance is very very little cheers all Greg

Hi Matt just woundering how you are going with the upgrade 1.12 and the AF360 flash. I havent installed the upgrade yet still using 1.11 on the IST D always a bit worried about ungrades dont like to play with some thing that is working all right brought the omni bounce wow that makes a great differance my basic settings with the flash are iso 400 spot metering f 3.5 to 5.6 and just take alot my notice of refective light
thanks in advance
cheers all
Greg

Hi Matt if you could keep us posted on your thoughts regarding the up grade and the flash I for one would be greatly appreciated.I have been puting off the upgrade as up grades worry me some times it might work better or it might not. Like a few i have my fair share of problems with the ISTD and 360 flash when it works its great when it dont grrrrrrrrrr i seemed to be doing more and more low light / night time work parties shows etc and am looking into the Metz mecablitz 70 MZ5 with SCA 3702M adapter 1 a bit more power 2 only TTL. There is a big camera show in Brisbane OZ next month and was waiting to see if i could talk to some one there before deciding what way to go cheers Greg
