Hi,

I'm looking for a pdf version for my AF360FGZ flashgun which I can load onto my iPhone. It's a lot more convenient for occasional reference than carrying the paper one. Does anyone have such, or can point me in the right direction?

Hi,

I am part-clearing out a lifetime of old film bodies and lenses and have a list of items for sale. If anybody would like a copy of the list with prices, please email me

Cheers,


Richard

Hi,

I need a compact digital camera for the, er, wife. I am a dedicated Pentaxophile with a long string of SLRs and have been for decades.

I did buy an RS1000 but this turned out to be a disaster. The flip lid over the battery/memory card compartment slides open with the minimal of pressure (it just didn't lock shut properly) and this could well have been damaged by accident so the camera has been returned to the retailer. I now need a real replacement.

My requirements are minimal; a decent sensor, versatile options, compact shape, light weight and very usable by a non-photographer wife. What would members recommend?

Stefan, that's probably exactly what I'm looking for.

I knew the Forum would help. Many thanks...

Thanks for the comments, folks.

ATM, the one I'm looking at is this;

Which, whilst among the more expensive ones, looks the most substantial. After all, why spend hundreds on a camera and then risk it with a £1 handle?

Hi,

I'm looking for a comfortable handstrap to go on my K20D, to go along with the shoulder strap supplied with the camera. This would allow me to swing the camera on the end of my arm during shooting but put the camera over my shoulder using the shoulder strap between shooting. The sort of thing I'm looking for has been supplied with video cameras for years and allows one-handed shooting.

There seems to be a number of these on the market, including ones for other brands but, of course, this doesn't give me any indication if they would fit my camera and how comfortable they are.

In this Forum, there must be enthusiasts who have bought these before so rather than re-invent the wheel, it seems to me to be sensible to make use of others' experience.

Has anybody got a recommendation?


regards,



Richard
