What's wrong with having instant access to tips and tricks ?

What's wrong with having a glossary of terms available ?

Nikon thought this would be a GOOD IDEA and decided to go with Apple for this .

What's wrong with Pentax coming up with something along these lines ?

or is it a case of you think everything should be for Windows ?

but it keeps changing direction - so it never gets to the point

well now

download the Nikon App - Nikon Learn and Explore

and go and see what's there

I'm busy reading Winter 2010 Nikon World Online on my little iTouch [ and there's more than that ]

As well as that there are other goodies - images , insights and techniques [ 3 different items there ]

Oh and a glossary of terminology

All good useful interesting stuff - - now Pentax could certainly do that

You want the best bit ?

It's all FREE

OK

Now can we read the Pentax Mag on our Iphones/Touchs ?

Putting an App up to Apple and getting it accepted gives Pentax a place in the public eye .

It's ADVERTISING - it gets folk interested in Pentax - maybe those who have P&S and are ready to move on [ as I was - and remember I went from Kodak and Fuji - to which make ?? ].

It's a way to keep Pentax before their prospective customers

Have you looked at this one ?


Nikon Learn and Explore

It's a free App - and looks absolutely brilliant - it's now sitting on my Touch.

It's choc full of generally useful info and stuff and of course is a nice bit of advertising.

This is the sort of thing Pentax should be doing .

It's no good bringing out good cameras [ which they do ] unless folk get to hear of them.

Get an App like this on the App Store and folk will look at it - firstly out of curiosity , and then they may well become interested and want to know what Pentax are about.

Tasteless ??????

Now come on Gwyn - I think it had been very tasty or he wouldn't have consumed it .

I was literally helpless with laughter reading it . I had this wonderful piccie in my mind of this guy with a very agonised look on his face belting as fast as he dare to the other end of the B& Q .

My sunlounge faces South [ I think - I'm directionally challenged ] and having glass walls on 3 sides and a clever plastic roof temps rise rapidly in it - 80 is nothing I can tell you . I had the door between my downstairs living room and the sunlounge open all day - it got the sitting room up to 70 +

But John - there's nothing specifically for Pentax !!

Nikon - is putting on stuff

Rumour hath it that other camera makers are preparing stuff - but is Pentax ??

Come on now = this thread is meant to be all over the place - that's why it's POINTLESS - actually you could say it's ' directionally challenged '

For those with iPhones/iPodTouches etc

In my cruising around browsing on things like the iTunes App store
[ no not necessarily for music ] I found some Photography Apps for camera folk - sort of generic stuff . Quite a few actually, but being your stereotypical Scot I go for the free ones first

Now, I see from some websites and the iTunes store, that certain camera manufacturers are now developing apps for the iPhone/iPodTouch .

To my surprise/horror Nikon has put on 2 FREE apps !! and Leaf Cameras has a remote for its LC11 software and a couple of others seem to be in the process of developing their apps now .

sooooooooooooooooo the question is

WILL Pentax develop an app [ or two or more ] for us Pentax folk ?

If it was something you could could use would you be prepared to pay for it ?
