It's possible to clone a whole drive, and move the contents to a new physical disk. There is a multitude of software it can be done with, free (with some restrictions) or paid - anywhere from 30-100 USD. Depending on where you are getting the new PC from, a shop may have a service to go with it but you're looking at extra cost obviously.

Lastly, as you saw yourself, Ebay is full of CS5 or 6 editions. Generally, if the seller has been around for more then a couple of years and has a multitude of positive feedback it's highly unlikely it's a scam. Further, Ebay has a fantastic buyer protection in place, I have experienced it first hand twice so to be fair, you are risking nothing. In worse case scenario, a bit of time before you can get your money back in case you are not happy. For double protection, use Paypal or a credit card - both have added shopper security.

If you haven't cloned a disk before and aren't happy to try, I'd give one of those cheap old version a shot. Seems like the most straight forward option.

Just my two cents.

Absolutely gorgeous set Mike. Beautiful, natural. Makes me wish I was there

Step no 4 from here: link

Turn the camera power on while pressing the MENU button. Then just follow on screen instructions; no need to dig into the menu.

Good luck

Beautiful.

I used Photoguard, however, can hardly comment on how good or bad they are as fortunately, I have not had to claim anything. That's the trick with most insurance companies. You don't really know what you are dealing with until you need to claim. As far as price to option ratio is concern, they offered more for less in comparison to extending my contents insurance with Aviva, especially considering I travel abroad a lot and needed a world wide cover.

I suppose just using usual common sense and reading through the terms before committing is sufficient to avoid most disappointing scenarios.

Thanks for the comparison, very handy. The KP does look fairly slick, even gripped.

I'm up in North London but it would be lovely to have some sort of a meet up. Have to say I was rather surprised that in a city like London, there were no Pentax specific clubs/groups. I am happy to drive even all the way to Surrey

Hey there Antony; welcome and looking forward to more pics!

Thank you Donovan!~

Thanks David. The fireworks were mostly quite low which meant smoke all over from the first launch. I do agree that it adds to the atmosphere

Cheers. To be fair, a lot of the exposure 'balancing; ended up being done in post. Once I saw the lights on the pier and ships go of, I was not impressed. Only thing I did to counter is lower exposure time hoping to achieve some sort of a happy medium between the fireworks and the foreground, to be able to adjust it in lightroom without worrying about loosing quality too much.

Thanks so much, Karlo

My mom needed a flash for her KS2. She tried my Metz 52 but found it a bit too bulky and confusing. We thought we'd try the Metz 44 and it seems like a match made in heaven, size/weight wise for the KS2. It doesn't hurt that it's a great flash either. They have intuitive interface, consistent light and fantastic build quality. If the Metz 44 AF1 is within your budget, I would not hesitate. They seem to be a great medium way between cheap and cheerful and Pentax original.
