I often see shutter speeds saying for example 3999/100000 could some one tell me what speed this is or why this shows like this in the exif data of many pictures I look at ..

Thank you guys and gals

Thank you for all of the info and input again folks..
Although I must admit sometimes I don't understand it, it is all very much appreciated. I am still not 100% sure of what to do now but I am slightly more educated than I was yesterday.

thanks Terry.. So if I understand correctly my 105mm macro will do the task



or do you mean 1:2.8/100 is more convenient than a bellows?

Thanks for your help so far. I think I have had a brain overload this morning as I am a little confused (normal)

Just to clarify .....
It is a Pentax k mount bellows I need and for the lens I can fit my normal lenses to it ..

I have a 105mm macro amongst several others would this be suitable or do I just use my standard 18-55 kit lens.. Or would I need to invest in another "specialist" lens

The macro work I would like to try is a dragonflies eye. spiders heads etc ..
I often see macro shots I really like. I know it has all been done before but not by me .. I am of the breed that will not be happy until I try even if I fail I enjoy trying.

I am planning on ordering it today so I can use it over the weekend..
thank you again

Hi guys, I am in the market for a set of Bellows mainly for Macro photography but also for slide copying.. I have searched on the internet but cannot make my mind up which type I want/need and which are the best quality.. I am using a K5 and a K7 and I do realise that I will probably have to focus manually etc but that is not a problem as I normally do this for my Macro work anyhow..

Thankyou for any advice or comments

Pete

Dunno about my joints but my eyes hurt after reading all of these posts ... and the OP is correct it is pointless..
Que Sera Sera
P.S. I just bought a new thermal Mug

If I did It would only be very little .. I usually carry a camcorder with me..

Thank you Snappy .. I had a look .. price is very good but can I rely on it .. That would be my main concern.

Firstly can someone tell me the best memory to get for the K5 as I am having trouble finding a compatibility list .. I would like 16 GB of memory fast enough to work without problems on my K5

Secondly what would be the best place to buy it from that has a very competitive price..

Thankyou Guys ..

Also would like to thank SRS for their great service when I bought the K5 Thanks to all
Peter

Thank you to all I now have a K5 in the post.. Due here on Tuesday ... Is it Tuesday yet????
