Just after some one showered! Else towel dust from towel heaters can be an issue. Inside dry cleaners poly tube is better as the dust sticks to the poly due to static.

At the possibility of being shot down, the one lens better than the 10-20mm Sigma which is sharp edge to edge and has virtually no distortion is a 14-24mm f/2.8 and is full frame. Unfortunately it is not Pentax fit.
One chooses to use the available tools to do the job, if not, compromise is the other option.

It looks nice with the matching lens.
I wonder if the screen will be available separately?
I will resist and wait and wait and wait until the K7's replacement arrives and then decide if that itself is worth buying.

On the hoof quick editing, weeding out, quick review - netbook, but only if you're going to get a lot of use from it. Great for hooking up to the camera if you want to show your 'model' what's being shot. Or alternatively use an ageing DVD player?
My only suggestion would be to get one with an SD slot and has a looooong battery life - 4-7 hours? My partner has a Samsung NC10 which is fab, but doesn't have the slot.
If you've got enough cards to cover your day and you edit mostly after the shoot then go with the glass.
This reply is written on my NC10 and it does have the slot? Just put in an 8GB SDHC card from the K& and it certainly works. There is a blanc plastic card in the slot to remove before use. Are you sure your NC10 has no card slot?On the hoof quick editing, weeding out, quick review - netbook, but only if you're going to get a lot of use from it.

Gwyn, I use the NC10 and a WD500GB pocket drive for backing up in the field as well as Skype etc. Quick viewing of images but no editing. That waits until I get back to the main laptop.
I personally regard "travel lenses" as a compromise and only shoot with the same range of lenses.

That chart wrongly states that Av mode completely works with M & K lenses for the digital models. They should have put an Av" symbol instead of Av.

This may prove to be a very good optic once tested?

If it is as sharp as the Mk1 70-200mm then I would be interested.

With regards to the golf pics, not a problem.
This was only agreed this evening at Awali Golf Club house. The resident Pro, did not know that I was here and immediately requested that I took the job on due not having the same results since I last did the job three years ago.
Main weapons will be the 50-135mm SDM with 1.7AF TC for course work and the 16-50mm SDM for the T shots. No other photographers will be present on an official basis so this is a Pentax only event (again after three years).
