Hi i just wondered if anyone knew how to clean the focusing screen i have a couple of specs of dust there.I checked the sensor and its all clean the dust specs do not hamper my photos its just when you look through the viewfinder you can see them. Thanks for any replies

May i remind hughjass aka andymac that its my 50mm macro lens he borrowed and the pentax 16-45mm which i borrowed of him is worth more. So if i dont get my lens back in perfect working order i will keep your lens and sell it to the highest bidder.I will then go and buy a fat cigar with the change in the knowing that when i buy a new 50mm lens i will probably still have a couple of hundred left over and all you will have is a broken macro lens ha ha ha
P.S see you at work

To Manesty Yes i am dyslexic and i do struggle with grammar quite a bit all i want when i ask a question about a photograhy issue is a straight answer.If i dont use the proper grammar you can still read and understand my question.If this is the type of replies i am going to receive it makes me wonder why i joined the forum. all i want is to talk about photography not my own problems
P.S thanks to beakynet

To Manesty Everyone else in the forum seems to want to answer the question asked instead you want to critisize my grammar.Probably wouldnt have been bothered but you never even gave me an answer to the question i asked.In your reply you said you try to help new members i somehow dont see that getting at someone for their grammer and not answering the original question is helping a new pentax member.What if i were dyslexic.You must be really bored. Oh and by the way you put three question marks at the end of one of your sentences whats the difference.

hi from sanderscapes.com does anyone know the best settings for shooting indoors i.e living rooms etc i am quite new to the pentax k10 i moved over from canon yuk! .At the moment i am using TAv mode which automaticaly adjusts the iso i set a range from 100 to 320 .i just wondered if anyone knew of any better settings to use such as a standard indoor aperture maybe say f8.I find myself having to take a couple of test shots then adjust the camera accordingly before taking the final shots by which time my kids have got bored and run off .Thanks for any help

Hi i just wondered what people thought of the bundled software with a k10 .I personally think its great but youve got to persevere with it and it looks pretty poor not a patch on elements 6 or cs3.But i like the workflow from raw to tiff to jpeg and the fact you can make 16bit .tiffs at about 57meg .I also have elements 6 on my pc but find i rarely use it and usually go back to the photobrowser and photolab software .I have often thought about the silkypix developer studio 3 software which made by the same developer as the bundled software but its adout £150 is it worth it ?
