I'm lost. How do we find the codes?

The crop factor is more like 1.5x on Pentax (1.6x on Canon), but yes, you've got the idea.

Many thanks

Thank you, and yes, I understand that focal length doesn't change; my question was simply, is using the 300 on the K3 the same as using a 460 on a 35mm in terms of the image in the viewfinder?

Morning everyone, and apologies if the answer to this is around somewhere already. Am I correct in thinking that these lenses on a K3 perform as 'more than' their stated focal length? That is, the 200 is like using a 360mm and the 300 a 460?

Thanks in advance

Steve

I have a K7 and K3 and have noticed with the latter that it seems easy to accidentally switch something on or off without realising, at least compared to the K7. Just saying.

Great shot. I'm afraid I know nothing about post production nor much about exposure, but I love the composition.

Sorry, will look more closely in future.

Yes - but hey - nice to see some of your work! I love the way you have isolated the ferns. I'm not into dive watches, but its a great image; nice and sharp and in its setting. And Nell is wonderful!

Thanks Andy; the beach ones were taken during a long stretch of "lifguard duty" whilst my son was in the water for several hours and I was getting ever so slightly bored. I have dived with this watch, but didn't take any pics of it underwater. Oh, and yes, like a proud dad, I welcome flattering comments about Nell. My kids refer to her as "the favourite child"!

Thanks John for moving to the correct place.
