Thanks. Have found that it works only when set to manual focus, otherwise if just purrs. Am away from UK, did you mean reset to initial settings? If not, where do I find 'factory rest', please?

For reason unknown to me, my K20 developed a glitch: When I turn it on, I cannot take any pictures, the shutter just purrrs. However when I turn it to preview mode, the shutter works OK... what have I done, anyone, please? And most importantly, what might be the remedy?

I have used the RAW file, altered the sensitivity and rotated it, so that it was vertical. It was and is like as is...
thanks for all the comments..

Thanks guys... have already looked up the solution on an interior photography website, where all of the above was suggested. I do have RAW files for all of the images, so bit of experimentation, I guess?
I also acquired a METZ flashgun, so perhaps another trip with all the extra gear might also be the solution. Also an opportunity to take some more pics. Fortunately, the venue is only 10 minutes walk from my home..

Took the attached image from within a bar, towards the street. What should I have done to make the image lighter, anyone, please...

iceblinker:Bought the lens yesterday afternoon - arrived by RD this morning!.. Well done axiomauctions.
However, when I fit the lens and switch on, I get F- - in the LCD window. What do I have to do set it up?
The lens is SMC Pentax -A 1:1.7 50mm

Thank you all for your comments. As I said earlier, I want to get few initial shots, to establish the gigs details. I have tried the 50-200 recently, in rather poor light. Was not much of a success. With the 50mm I can get as near to the performers as I wish. Have established good relationship with the venue owners,which are pubs, who are looking forward to someone promoting live gigs in the Portobello Road area. Also thanks for comments about the seller.

I would not ask if I were a 'Pentax Master'.. more of a novice than Master. Expensive? On ebay they are all around £50 mark. Even the one I missed, was bid for at £50.

pink: missed the item on ebay. Saw the following, so asked the seller to confirm if it is OK for K20D SLR. He referred me to one of our Forums, so here is the link. Any advice, guys?
