I'm having great fun with my K-x

The difference between the pictures I got on my old P&S is incredible - I'm stunned and really propose to work at things now .

I'll be posting some pics soon after my return to the UK - and they will be as they came from the camera - no tweaks . I'm not intending them for C&C but they will hopefully be able to give you an idea of what is coming from it in Automatic Mode - I'm really not ready for anything else.

Stefan ,

Minor correction ,

graphios actually means to write [ well as we understand it in the UK ]

You are not telling me that it was actually sunny in Edinburgh ?

Love the top of the roundabout

Your Mileage My Vary

Otherwise known as your view of things may not be the same as mine

In preparation for playing with editing stuff from my K-x I have already downloaded the stuff from Adobe.

And the K-x is now in my hands and I"m getting the feel of it

Agreed - look at the number of Government issue laptops that have gone.... errr ... walkabout and only later are we told that they had ' sensitive' information about people

wont attempt to do a C&C - but that second one really appeals to me - the different textures of the stone and the old bricks and then the paving stones - that is stunning

Oh I just have to be the first to welcome you

Nope - it's a one month thing as I understand .

So far - the only person I've yet heard about who has this camera so of course I want to chat about it

Muggins - I still can't PM [ too new ]

would you please PM me so we can talk about this camera

oh yes - I'll be doing that with my own Church - and will get some practice in that way.

My Yank friend [ OK don't scream at me ] uses a Nikon D40x and an Olympus E-500 and his flash units are Nikon SB-600AF Speedlight and and Olympus FL-50R - both of these are good TTL flash units . He agrees that there are times when he needs a tripod - but not many .

I've seen his stuff and he's considered to be an expert at some of the shots he needs to get [ not my description but that of experts in the USA ]

He was wondering about a Pentax AF360FGZ for me - but since he's not a Pentax man wanted other opinions
He is a photographer specializing in Church art and architecture. When he goes into a church is with permission of the authorities, and has unlimited access to the facility and art. Thus he does not need to be far from anything he is working on.

Last year he took me along on occasions to these particular shoots when I managed to meet up with him when he was working in Europe.
