Hello Everyone

Recently joined the Forum and I feel like I'me back at school, in fact
the first day at school. SO MUCH INFORMATION it makes me realise how little I know!

Will now play a low profile and listen, read and learn.

My thanks to all for the fantastic knowledge base.

What would be the best lens for the K10D to take Portraits.

I have heard a 50mm Macro is good
also 70 and 77 mm F1.4 or F2.8

Am I on the right track.

Thanks

Peter

Just joined a few minutes ago so will be avidly reading the various topics.

Recently changed my DS for the K10D so currently on a learning curve.

Recently aquired the K10D. The RAW or RAW+ setting gives a default format of PEF.
Photoshop Elements 4 would not accept PEF. They have a download to fix this on the Adobe website. SWo far I have not seen any difference between DNG and PEF other than DNG being Adobes own.

Still learning

Just changed my DS for the K10D with Grip.
No battery supplied with grip ! You have to buy a spare which sits in the grip. Also space for a spare card.

In MENU there is an option to switch batteries or use AUTO which uses both batteries according to their levels.
The controls on the grip do not work unless the camera in switched on normally.
The book explains this but you still have to find out the hard way.!!

Hope this helps

Peter
