Does any one know if there is a pan/tilt head available for a Manfrotto or Velbon monopod

Bernard

That's a trick question, right? If not, any pan/tilt head will fit with or without the 1/4 - 3/8 thread adapter.

Best regards

A quote from DPR:

"24mm focus is tailor-made for most of the sensors available on the market today. In the case of full-frame cameras, it constitutes a high-quality wide-angle lens perfect for street, landscape and architecture shooting. Whereas photographers using DX sensors will get just perfect lens for the purposes of calmer journalist and landscape photography."

wide plus fast is always interesting.

Only speaking for myself, I would not consider 24mm on a cropped sensor as wide. I would definitely recommend the 21mm Pentax as a better "journalist and landscape" lens, though it is slightly slower, it has AF.

Hopefully you can see this video. Not sure if the link will work in the UK?

I've recently given up Canon to come back to Pentax, doing my research before ordering a telephoto lens (DA55-300), the image quality in the shots I found on the net was superb and from a lens that cost half the price of some of my old Canon lenses.

The nearest Canon lens is the Canon EF-S 55-250mm F4-5.6 IS Lens - £189.00 although 50mm shorter than the Pentax 55-300 at £275 it does have IS which isnt bad. Maybe you did not have that particular Canon model or were you just comparing your most expensive Canon lens.

I would like to see a side by side impartial test of similar lenses in similar spec cameras and am willing to bet a Pentax combo would come at or near the top.

Why would it not be equal to or better than similar spec equipment?

By using other brands as well as Pentax, does that mean to some that I have not stayed with Pentax? (no gold star for me then).

Being a fan of 'curves' I can see why you snapped 'Rear glance'

Back on the photography though .... Moscow eagle is my favourite. great crop, exposure and pose of the subject.

The first three are nice archive shots which will of enormous interest in 50 years time. - Well apart from 'Rear glance' which is off interest now

Cheers

All except State Circus were with the 24-90mm. State Circus was with the 70-200 Sigma EX Mk 1.

Wonderful images. The term "dedication" springs to mind. No. 5 is a great capture.

Good set with saturated colours. Last one is a very good capture.
