the Kood i have came with a release key and has never given a problem to remove, don't push the key all the way down, only go just enough to actuate the spring when rotated

only issue i had was Norton advised me to use explorer as default browser not Edge as it did not allow the Norton extension which protects against phishing, apparently there are other extensions that do not work with it either but cannot recall which, no doubt a search would tell you

just been to Weymouth and tried to find Kimmeridge, saw one signpost then no more so did not get there but good to see what i missed, thanks Nigel.
i like all the images but my favourite is 5 , for me it is the best balanced image and allows me to go from front to back and take everything in on the way, the foregrounds on some of the others i find a bit too dominant and stop me actually going on into the image because it is taking so much of my attention

i would imagine the extra cost of 16-50 is down to the constant f2.8 available as much as anything

up to 5 weeks not unknown, it seems the more you vote on images the quicker you get a result on your own

had to have the AF recalibrated on mine when i had one, moved to a 11s now, fortunately under guarantee , it would have cost £82 otherwise but that was a couple of years ago.

i like the layout and style, plus some excellent images. on a personal note i like a slide show. as lennybloke says a bit more content of the current calibre will make very pleasant viewing, the downside is you may need to find more categories but that may solve the problem of not having the slide shows overly long. anyway good luck with the venture.

another who agrees with Lennybloke, K5 11s is a big improvement over K7 and K5 in terms of image clarity and detail straight from camera with the bulk of shots not requiring sharpening at all plus the thing will focus in almost total darkness , which with some of the Churches i have done it has had to.
