My K10D image serial number is heading towards 7000 and I wandered what happened after it got to 9999. Does it grow a digit or wrap around?

Anyone got there yet?

That's very helpful. Thanks.

I was kind of hoping it might be some sort of hybrid PTP support but obviously not.

Is there any support yet for tethered shooting in the K10D? I've not been able to find anything conclusive.

Listed on the K10D's set-up menu under "Transfer mode" are three options: PC, PictBridge and PC-F.

What is PC-F? It seems to function like PC mode but what's the difference?

Nothing about it in the manual that I can see and a Web search hasn't uncovered anything.

Thanks for any insight.

Nice judging, Lilly. Thanks for your comments.

Obviously not enough mono for you in the submissions so you made your own. Made me chuckle.

There you go picking a subject crying out for drab, depressing interpretations and barely a mono submission among them.

I've done this and even with the right kit, it is extremely hard to get sharp pictures.

My neighbour has a good size reflecting scope and we connected my K10D with adapters and a T-ring.

We tried all sorts of things but couldn't get rid of the distortions and aberrations until the cold got the better of us.

I actually got better shots on an earlier occasion just holding my lens to the eye piece.

We'll probably have another go when the weather warms.

I've been in their shop, which is a squitty little dungeon, but left sharply when the services I sought were priced somewhat higher than I thought possible.

That price for a ring-flash is remarkable.

Judging from the prices of some of their old stock, I think they must charge it rent.

Why everyone has to have a 'roadmap' instead of a plan or a projection, I don't understand. Why learn a language properly when you can just recycle the few words you know? I blame Americans...

Anyway, before I descend into a rant, I haven't seen this posted but it's quite interesting.

Apologies if it has already been posted.
