Hi - Your laptop should have a funtion key - usually on the bottom row of keys and at the LH end
Pressing fuction key, usually marked in blue Fn, and pressing F8 will show either a blank Laptop screen and display through the projector, press again will give Laptop screen and projector and once again, this will give laptop screen only. Keep pressing the combination of function key and F8 and this will cycle through the settings mentioned above. However, be patient, allow the settings to run, so allow a little time for the laptop to talk to the projector before pressing the fn F8 combination because you think it has not worked! - Hope this helps

Picasa will let you put a "Star" against selected images and then display the selected ones. As has already been said, Picasa is a very much underated program and is being updated/upgraded all the time.

That main road into Torquay between Penn Inn and Kingskerswell is a real accident black spot and lousy with permanently queuing traffic. (Use the back road through Decoy) The photographs may well be of value to the police in any investigation into the RTC - especially if the cyclist didn't make it Definately a no no on Flikr I think

So whats it likely to fetch?
I would guess at around £3500-£4000 realistically. Could go higher, but I doubt we will see a bidding war!

Price is always an issue, but having become older and "wiser?" buy once and buy right... I have the DA*300 and it is a great performer - on par with any of the previous pentax *300mm lenses. Solid construction, silent operation and weatherproofed to match the camera

The AC160fc would be fine with this lens. A 49MM adaptor ring is provided that would screw into the filter thread at the front of the lens. The flash then clips onto the ring - simple eh!

A Special adaptor is also provided for the D FA Macro lens. this fits onto the bayonet fitting for the lens hood and looks a bit like a 50mm extention tube. The flash then clips onto the extension tube, in order to take the weight and prevent damage to the lens
