Sorry, having trouble posting this snap...I'll try again...seems to be getting clipped...probably sizing issues.

Coal tit taken on MZ 50 on tripod with Centon 500mm mirror lens.

Is there any way of making that lens work on the K20D?

Murder trying to get focus right.

Can anyone recommend what is the best teleconverter I should buy for my existing kit please and why?

Pentax no longer make one?

Thanks in advance.



Rob

Fabulous....focus on the goose and owl(?), better than on the swan?.....my amateur perspective. Down to the tiny drops of water behind the beak of the goose and tiny feathers of the owl and the colour of its eyes.

I personally would be very happy with those...are you a pro?

IMHO

Can anyone recommend which tc I should buy for my kit, please.

Hi Mr Bug,

Know what you mean about Weddings...did one in video, came out very well but when you are the only video photographer...it has to be right. A lot of time went into editing.

Thought my attempt was good until I saw a professional's. They had done some work for Spielberg ...and it showed.

Anyway, hope you can answer a few of my quetions....I'm a complete amateur with still photography...but how interesting when one gets it right. First grand daughter 6 months old.

Seem to be learning a lot every day from these guys and gals.

Ned,

Welcome and Croeso Y Pentaxusers!

Another from God's own country...is Constitution Hill still steep?

Born and bred Swansea also.

Great forum this....they even put up with my daft questions!



Rob

Bet he values by esteem value...pride of possession, rather than exchange value.....

Probably why I can't even put my recently reconditioned MZ-50 in the loft.

Rob

Excellent shot!



Rob

shim,

Thanks for reply and advice.

Do Pentax still make it, or should I get the Sigma?

Cracking good post..if I may say so..I think I'll try some similar shots with mine.



Stupid observation from total amateur, please...use of tc when used with slow lens may reduce the effective aperture enough that the camera's autofocus system will no longer work....correct?
