to shoot the moon go for ISO100 or lower,fast shutter speed and full zoom.Obviously use a tripod and spot metering and focussing.Keep taking shots until you get it right!!!It will either be too dark or too bright,adjust accordingly.
I think that advice applies to just about any photographic scenario, but we're trying to be just a bit more scientific here I think.

I think that we can expect no firmware updates for older Pentax DSLR's that are no longer in production. Some of the fixes in newer models could so easily be incorporated into old model firmware, but Pentax will not do it.

Turn power off, press and hold Menu button, turn power on. FW version is displayed on screen.

This is about the best I've ever managed. Taken last year, EXIF reports 550mm lens but I think it was taken with a DA*300 + Pentax-F 1.7x AF T/C

Dinner? You'd get about enough meat for a decent sandwich, but not much else.

I use keywords in Lightroom and organise all my photo's by the date they were taken.

It does get tricky when I'm scanning old film images and can't remember where or when I took them, or why.

Is it not possible though that a problem might exist in somebody's understanding, for which there is no photo? Where would they post?

Aren't wedding rings normally worn on the left hand?
