Hi guys, I have been tusing a sigma 28-80mm, not the best of lenses but does get the job done firly. But recently I have been trying to use my kit lens for wide angle, but because of the movement and dancing around in my church I find out the closer images were all blur. I have a k10d and k100d super. I have taken a lot of advise here, and am using the k100d with the kit lens, please should I set it to sports mode as there is a lot of movements? the light at the church is not too good so am thinkng of rplacing the kit lens with a 16-45mm or a sigma 17-50mm. please i have a weeding aniverssary shoot in two weeks. I used a sigma 70-300mm on the k10d with a pentax af360fgz and i have some good close up's but obviously not a wide angle lens. Any sugestions.

K10d, k100d super, sigma 70-300mm, tamron 70-300mm,Pentax DA 18-55mm, simgma 28-80mm, pentax MF 1:2, 50mm, pentax DA 50-200mm.

Oh thanks i will have a look at the SEF-36.Has it got the same features Wireless as the AF360? thanks

Thanks will do!

Thats Great Stefan,

I will go for the P-TTL mode get another AF360 secondhand that way its uniformed .

you have been really helpful

Thank Stefan, I was trying to avoid the wireless triggers and since the k10d works wirelessly so well with the AF360 it worked well so far I enjoy using it. I don want to spend too much on studio flash head at the moment as I want to master the flashguns first. Do you think getting another AF360 for now will be ok? since they will have the same power out put.
Please if there is a link on the kit you mentioned I will be glad to have a look

Thanks

Thanks for that, but I often use it in P-TTL and set it to 0.1, and manual allows you to set up to 1/32 an not sure what that means but guess is somthing to do with power out put on the 360FGZ. Deos manual mode give more power? or P-TTL

Hi guys I am hoping there is someone who has tried this. I am trying to create ligthing effects but I want to use to flash gun units and umbrellas, I have AF360FGZ which I use with my collectoion of umbrellas. I use it in wireless mode, am think of buying an AF540 FGZ on ebay. Can I use both wireless mode at the same time with the k10d? or do I need to get another AF360FGZ. And also how far (distance wise) can I use these wirelessy as the flash does not fire at about 40yards. please has anyone got any image they have tried with this technique? I have seen a few on you tube but I could do with the advice and an image if possible to know if its worth buying another flash gun.

thanks

Spacus!

Thanks pentax pro that's a good tip.

Thanks Chris I will take that on board and will wait for the right time but in the meant time practising in the way forward for me
