I had a K-3 with grip so running 2 batteries and was very happy with the length between charges. I got burgled so had to replace and got K-3 ii and grip. 2 legit Pentax batteries but am only getting 1/3 of shotting time.

Are these batteries crap or is it the GPS in the camera using all the power??

Cheers Phil.

I`ve ahd issues with portrait photos on this sit and also on Pentax Forum. Many people have tried to help but put the problem down to something in the way my computer and software handles the image. I use approximately 5 other online site for photo`s etc and have NEVER had this problem or issues with orientation at all and while using the k3 don`t think Ive ever had an issue. Only with this site and Pentax Forum.

After a long discussion with a guy called Adam he changed the Pentax Forum website and it worked I can now upload portraits no problem. I have included what he said he`d changed.

Update:

I have implemented automatic rotation both for attachments and the gallery, so your thumbnails should (hopefully) look good from now on. Take it for a spin and please let me know!

Thanks,

Adam

Would it be possible for admin to change the setting on this site or at least add orientation to editing part of system as I am getting sick of landscape.

On a plus note my landscape photography has improved greatly. If administrators can look into this.

Thank you Phil.

Ha brilliant I didn`t notice that

Is the 10-17 still available? And if so whats best price posted to Leeds?? Cheers Phil

I just user Microsoft picture viewer for jpegs and it has never had any orientation issues except with the old 350d I had. I have Coral for editing RAW but don`t use it that much I,m a bit of a straight from the camera type. When you open edit on the PU site it doesn`t offer for you to change the orientation which I would think should be pretty standard for a photo gallery. Could this be because I,m on basic member package? I,ll pay a tenner if I can pick which way up my photo`s go.

When I upload and print them I have never had a problem (or facebook etc). I don`t use either photoshop or elements and they are straight from the camera.

Hello again. I was just wondering if anyone knew why my portrait photo`s are changing to landscape. I uploaded one to gallery and it is the same. No problem with landscape??

Cheers everyone. Am going to order from Bristol camera`s as I,m getting a Fuji x-t10 for my lady as well. Do they do a discount for Pentax user members?

Am in Leeds. Just checked and they don`t stock Pentax anymore. Notice a couple of shops doing this. Jessops in Harrogate had non in.

Cheers looks like a good price and the large retailers all have exactly the same price so would like to put money away from them if possible. I might even try my luck on haggling tomorrow.
