Just a question of L lenses to get the best from a Canon.

Graham, are you saying that the Sigma 10-20 DG, Sigma 17-70, Sigma 18-200 DC, Sigma 150-500 APO, Sigma 600 F8 CAT are good on a Pentax but not a Canon?

Obviously the above lenses are from your list. It just reads wrong that only L glass is needed to get the best from a Canon camera.

I'd welcome an MX or MZ-S digital (FF, manual focus MX with AF on the MZ-S). As for getting digital into an existing body, Leica managed to do it and if Olympus manage to pull an OM-D out of the hat it will sell faster than any other body for the first few months.

Safest place to be under the circumstances Barrie. If you’re in the James Cook, it’s also the top place to be, ranking alongside the Freeman at Newcastle.

Ask one of the nurses if you can play with a Pentax medical lens.....

A good composition with subtle colours making it work really well.

I miss the frost!

Excellent work. No's 6 & 10 for me. Original and well photographed.

Great shots. You've got me wondering how the 15mm rectilinear would work in this type of application.

As for the price of the current 15mm, yes it's rather a high price. Also made worse by the fact that it retails for 330 pounds outside the UK.

Rather wait than?

I attended a meeting of the Rockingham Photography Club link last night. One of the members, Wayne Henry link was there and had submitted some excellent images for a club comp.

He uses a Pentax 645D. Images were straight from the camera and were JPEG's. Large number of Canikon owners there. The first question I was asked was "what kit do you shoot"? I replied (in this order) "Pentax, Minolta and Nikon". First responce was "oh".

Some very good images displayed,most, not all, were JPEG.

Each to their own.

It may be due to the lack of light at smaller apertures. My 50-500 works well with a 1.7TC in bright sunlight yet soon stutters at lower light levels.

Only stuff I'm using is Photoshop. I have plenty of other stuff loaded on one machine but never get the time to play with it. I've never taken a picture in RAW with the Nikons. At some point, I'll have a play about but I never seem to have the time.

Long hours over here and a very busy weekend leaves so little time to try other software or master the art of good RAW conversion.

There seems to be merit in being able to pull the last bit of whatever out of a file but to most end users or clients, they couldn't tell the difference. They seem more impressed with the content than technical detail.
