i tested at 4 seconds iso 800 1600 and 3200, and get alot of hot pixels,
i think this was a problem with the k20 early on.
also with the lens cap on.

Actually I'm well annoyed with myself.
Just lost THIS on Ebay .. didn't bid enough because I thought the mark on the front lens would put a lot of people off.

Was £101 with 7 mins to go .. then wham.

4!!! I've got only two (4 and 5) and they are pretty efficient in the chaos dept., so I cannot even start to understand where you still find the time to grab your camera! My photo allocated time slot is usually between midnight and 2 (pretty hard to find interesting subjects!).
[EDIT : I just read my previous post again, and I was of course talking about MY junk only, in case you took it personally... It's only while reading your answer that I got back to your pics and noticed the various baby-related things lying around, got me smiling!]

Kudos to you, Mom!

Can't remember if you talked about hardware, but I quickly invested into a) a fast lens, and b) a P-TTL wireless flash, in order to shoot those pesky little things. This gave me waaaaaay better results than using the on-board flash (which should be restricted by law to wireless controller only, IMO).

Well, anyway, this doesn't solve the auto-iso issue...
They decidedly had problems with this feature, as it's bugged too in P mode (it won't let you select slower shutter speeds once the base iso is reached, whereas it could do so by closing the aperture).
not taken personally my kids do keep me busy i have twins that are a year old. and the others are 3 and 5, and thanks. i have a samsung sef36 pzf flash which can be used wireless which i will have to start using it i think. also invest in some more glass,

thanks matt i will give it a try over the weekend and report back, thanks once again.


dlacouture im just trying different setting and i find f8 f10 seem to give the best exposure, as for hiding my junk i got 4 kids under 5 and they make a mess,
i love to take photos of them and, kids dont stay still so you can't tell them not to look at the flash they just turn at the wrong time.
