Beautiful compo on the first one.

Just out of curiosity, tried installing it using one of the suggested method which did not quite work, so asked my other half and he managed to do so:

1. Download, copy to C drive (or anywhere else, doesn't matter, just saves you typing
2. open powershell or command prompt
3. switch to directory (example was C drive) with - "C:"
4. then invoke with

".DCU5updater64_571.exe /S /v/qn"

(dont type the quotes, exmaple for the 64 bit version)

you should now have the app installed in Crogram filesPENTAX

Worked for be on Win7 Ent 64bit. If you have issues, just tell me what error you get.

Ah cheers Jak.

You can download all versions of Pentax software directly from their website - http://www.ricoh-imaging.co.uk/en/Photo-Downloads.html. Just keep on scrolling down until you see the one you're after (which is anything 5+) The sorting is awkward as it's filtered by camera it shipped with. Unless I did not understand you properly, in which case, I'm sorry

In my case it was a set, charger plus batteries. I always buy the USB ones as the original ones are so huge. And fair enough, Ebay can be painful when it comes to shopping in China

Human error Yak. There is a reason these batteries cost a fraction of the original I ordered 2 sets of 2 with chargers from them without issues. Given as it's their mistake, let them just keep on sending until you get the right one lol. It's fulfilled by Amazon, so in case of trouble it's easy to deal with and the batteries are as good as the original ones. Given the saving, I'd allow them some slack.

Yep, DSTE are brilliant , have been using them for years.

First one but agree that the difference between the two is quite interesting

Very nice set. The first is one of my favourite views in the city. Up close and from a bit further away.
Love the last portrait as well.

I find all these 'awards' ridiculous. From a point of a business owner that was 'invited' to participate in several contests, even more so. There seem to be two types of them - the first, you pay and entry fee; if you don't, you are not considered - in other words, 'The best of those that paid up'. The other type, you get selected by the organizing body, but it comes with a very long 'marketing' agreement; inclusive, in my case, asking for access to my clients' data. Which quite obviously is illegal and would kill any small business if anyone was to find out. Never, were any people contacting our company able to answer what competencies do they have to judge my service or products not having used any. In case of equipment, it's a bit easier in theory. In practice, awards go to those that 'play the game', either pay up, or deliver free equipment and/or other sort of 'carrot' to be considered. Everyone else, is a backdrop at best.

Sadly, people seem to love the idea of dealing with an award winning entity. I've had clients here in the UK that actually asked me if we have won any. When asked which ones would be their favourite and why, they had no idea. Is it just a way of making themselves feel a bit better? I must have a certain social status as I am using an award winning agent, camera, computer. Who and how decided that, does not seem important at all.
