It probably means it's much bigger than a 'normal' lens

Seriously, I have no idea.

Charlotte, is it possible that your camera was supplied by "A N Other camera store" but the order and delivery was fulfilled by Amazon?

If so, it could be that the "A N Other camera store" is a Pentax pro dealer and their 2 year warranty applies. Check your original invoice/receipt.

Please post a topic only once. You have a duplicate topic in this same forum.

Excellent shots of a very rare sight.

You actually have images of both birds in your other post. One bird seems to be a week or two younger than the other (note the almost total lack of yellow skin around the beak of the older bird).

If Pentax Ricoh were to produce a 135-format body, I think they could automatically crop the image size if an APS-C lens were attached to it.

Unfortunately for many, wanting is one thing, being able to afford is quite another.

Good luck with your sale.

I can't imagine that it would be very difficult for Pentax, or any and all other camera makers, to have a flash setting specifically for triggering slave flashes.

Their dilemma would be deciding on how much flash power to use as any flash output from the onboard flash would contribute to the illumination of the scene.

IR/radio wireless would seem to be the best option all round really, which is the route I took . . . eventually.

I think I'm right in saying that if you use M series lenses or older, the P-TTL function does not work and therefore I don't think the onboard flash produces a pre-flash.

The user has asked a question and been given sound advice which deserves a reply that relates to the advice given.

Hopefully my post will encourage that reply.
