Who convinced you that you 'need' full frame? Whoever it was, give them a good kicking for wasting your money.

Strewth. I thought your image might have been suffering from the common ghosting effect when using HDR s/w. Clearly it isn't.

Nice shots BTW.

Ebay is your best option for what you are looking for.

This is a discussion forum with occasional sales of equipment.

I think you are looking in the wrong place my friend.

The Kenko PK-AF tubes are PKA compatible but despite the AF suffix, they don't support auto focus.

Good luck with the Canon kit.

Perhaps we should have a Pentax ex patriot forum.

I think you mean neutral density. Using 2 polarizers in this way will cost you about 2 f-stops, if not more.

What exactly is the point? Why not just underexpose if you want to lower the overall brightness of the scene?
shallower dof and or slower shutterspeeds....

I often need both a polarizer and a ndgrad for outdoor portraits...
ie getting shallower dof and a slow enough shutter speed for flash in a park setting...
Thanks Don.
