Another tip......

If you are using a "K" or M lens and want to shoot at wide open only, you can also use Av mode. The camera will set the shutter speed for you, but it will meter and take the shot at widest aperture, irrespective of what you have set the aperture ring to.

For a 24mm there is always this choice http://www.bdimitrov.de/kmp/lenses/primes/ultra-wide/FA24f2.html

Been out of production for over 10 years but it is a classy lens and the pop up on ebay pretty regularly. I have only just got a K1 so have not had a chance to try it out yet but was very happy with it on my K10D.

Yes, another offering of thanks from me to Chris and SRS for excellent service.

Still ploughing through the K1 manual here...it's a bit more advanced than the K10D !

Glorious weather at the moment, giving me the chance to get out with my new K1 and my two willing models.

I have a Centon PV27 for sale for £15

It is identical to this one but but taller http://preview.tinyurl.com/hmjwwjq

144 cm tall (or up to 166 with centre column extended). Very good condition.

Where are you in London as postage wont be cheap. I am in Woking, Surrey

TAv mode allows you to set the shutter and aperture to your desired settings and the camera will adjust ISO to give you a correct exposure.

Hyper mode is associated with the Program mode. In P mode you can turn either front or rear wheel to switch from Program mode to Tv or Av mode (Hyper). If the data shows as Tv HYPER, you switched into Tv mode from P by turning the front wheel..
