A great set with rich colours. What lens did you use David?

Best regards

She is certainly a great subject Andy. All good pose.

Have you done any PP, specifically sharpening as I can't see evidence.

Best regards

YET, I am awaiting delivery of a new Pentax 21mm, it's not for me though, it's a present for some one back in the UK. I will "field test" it here though before I take it back.

Best regards

It needs to, Carbon Tax in Australia, announced today, $23 per ton of CO2.

How many wind farms or solar panels = one gas or coal fired power station?

Yup, I don't believe in global warming.

You'll be able to buy fresh Australian air real soon as there won't be anything else to export.

I promise to end my LBA with my latest addition, a Sigma 10-20 f3.5

Given my ability to knock/scratch lenses I need to put a filter on it. My question is can a CPL be left permanently on the lens as a protector? (most of the time anyway) or am I better off with a UV type filter.

they are expensive 82mm filters
So I read this as:

"Just bought a 10-20mm lens that takes 82mm filters and don't want to have to buy two, need a CPL so could I leave that on"?

You may have cured your LBA but it appears that you have yet to acquire FBA.

Only an incorrect comment of mine Thoughton.

It was hopefully an isolated example of shutter related problems with random firing.

Presently inebriated with red wine, awaiting delivery of a 21mm Pentax from Adorama.

1) respect oneself

2) respect others

Best regards and respect.

Well well well, losing faith etc?

I'm never impressed or amused as much as when some one condemns a product due to it not being perfect.

My present resentment approach to Pentax being only my POV.

Nothing in life is "just so".

Get a grip, use and prove and impress and be happy with your lot.

I did not discard (nor will) Pentax kit just because I use Nikon FF.

Every tool has a function and purpose.

For those that don't know......................

Pentax has a polished finish that others have yet to achieve.

Best regards.

APS-C is good enough for many people all the time, and even more people most of the time. Some will be convinced to chase ever-better specs regardless of what they see in the finished images. This has nothing to do with photography and everything to do with marketing and techno-fetishism.

Those that really do need the extra quality are already using medium format.
Maybe they liked the idea of having a full range of own brand lenses from ultra wide to super telephoto with excellent flash systems and good manufacturer support when needed?

Maybe not?
