Not sure if you already know this, but with a manual focus lense you can set your camera to auto focus, hold down the shutter release then twist the lense into focus and the camera will fire when perefect focus is achieved.

Sorry Bob, and this goes out to other forum members, I have just thought of this, could you tell the first dog shot was HDR treated?

Thanks Bob and I think you have some valid comments there.
If you look at the original shot (here), it looks a bit flat so I think that HDR treatment does make an impact, in this case a bit subtle, but nevertheless, in my opinion better than the original shot. The dog's fur has an added dimension, as if a flash were used.

And another, I made 3 exposures either side of the original RAW and tweaked the levels

Nice camera. The anvil launching is impressive too.

Thanks K10D.
I agree, it is good to use what you have to the max. A better camera does not make you a better photographer, but I am getting a bit fed up of having to go through a lengthy menu to make changes wheras with the K10 and 20 the fundamental settings are easily accessed by direct buttons.

Here's another, a bit more processed than the first:

Anyone know where I can get a cable shutter release (not remote control) other than on ebay as they are all from Hong Kong or China and I need it quickly. It's for a K100D
Cheers.
Cheers.
