Caravanwalks,they are good shots,you have learnt how to use the KR very well,see if you can focus on the eye of the dog it will make a very good photo.

Why do togs talk about other brands of camera`s on a Pentax site,it would seem a site dedicated to their brand would give them more information.

More luck 3 photos that I entered were approved in 12hrs,5 out of 8 has made me very happy,

The photos that were entered last night(aus time)were all wildlife, and because of the help from this forum, have improved no end.

I still have not obtained, or linked to a website from PPG,it is beyond my computor skills.

thank you Jack.

I have had another 1 approved it is taking about 24 hours from the time of posting to approval.

That makes it 2 approved 3 rejected, I put 5 in over 2 days and have them all passed through,within 24 hours.

My first acceptance into PPG took less than 24 hrs.one accepted, one declined,3 pending,the standard must be declining,but hey I am not going to complain.

i have a LG ISP 23 on order (from Father Christmas and I have been a good boy)according to one of the computer experts in our club(he is in charge of a large government department) most cheap screens are 6 bits and fudge to make 8 bits, IPS screens are true 8 bits, the same as very high priced screens as used for very high class graphics company's.

The LG IPS comes strait out of the box giving good colours,he didn`t need to calibrate the screen,and at $A199 in AU it is very good value

Nice image Shaun it is a well deserved win,keep winning and it might be a Pentax next time.

When Richo brought Pentax, they would have had a plan for the camera division,if Pentax was running as a separate division in Hoya it would make sense to keep it together, with input from Richo as to where it would ultimately head.

Pentax under Hoya would have been doing forward planing, Richo should keep that going until it decided to make wholesale changes, if it considered Pentax was worth buying in the first place.

In my opinion it could keep making lenses up to 300MM there is most of the market covered, except for lenses in the 400-600MM range(in aus there a lot of togs using this range in all brands of cameras)it may be a small market for these worldwide but it will possibly give some of these togs a chance to use, and gain some of the market with a cheaper line of lenses than the big two
Then Richo could keep developing new cameras similar to K5 or what will replace it,maybe full frame?

Pentax could have a big future under Richo, Pentax have made some of the best lenses in,the world and could still have the designs in there cupboard.

Not an expert in printing,but try setting let Computer manage colours
it should be in your printer set-up.

I have had this problem before.
