Just a link to show the upgrade process.

But Its football...!! "How can you say no....?"

Could I just enquire what filter system are you using for the 15-30...? Are you using 150mm filters....?

Really nice images. The Sunflower being my favourite. I considered the Samyang when I first got my K1. But with my dodgy eyesight, and it's manual focus. Thought I'd better purchase the 15-30. So I cant compare them never having owned the Samyang. But Looking again at your pics I dont think I can't remember taking anything better, with my 15-30..! So when you consider the cost difference and weight difference it makes you wonder. Like your comment says with the bulbous lens the filter situation is really frustrating. When the expensive range I already own cant be attached. I have been known to resort to Sigma 10 - 20 in crop mode just to get the real wide angles. Using a filter. Ok I'll stand in the corner...

Great stuff... No2 My favourite.

I had been taking a brief look at ACDSee myself this week. After seeing it used on Fstoppers (You Tube).. I dont really use Ligtroom at all. Except to tether my k1. When in the studio. Does ACDSee have this facility do you know..?

Enjoyed looking...Well done.

Finally got it back today...!! Perfectly repaired.. ! If expensive.

yes, thumbs up from me too...!

I needed a repair to the SD card reader on my K1. So I sent it to J Pye. (As the registered repairer) on 1st June. Still not received the camera back as yet. I was also billed what I thought was a very excessive price for what in effect is a part swap..
