I am aware that a film camera requires a polarizer filter (if thats the correct term)whereas a digital camera does not.
There may be an assumption that the 60/70/80s film era polarizers are fit for purpose and may even be made from better materials
Wheras modern day filters may be inferior in comparision and diminiss the qualty of the image .

I am considering buyining a polarizing filter for my supertakumar 50mm 1.4 lens.

I wondered if there was a difference between a modern polaring filter and an older one., in terms of how the filter affects the image.

Do you reckon that's just a bad 70-200 and he should get it swapped or is the focus adjustment simply out?
This is an interesting take on the K-1's autofocus:

Not only does he capture a photo of Algi in flight, he suggests the best AF hold setting to use which isn't necessarily the default. How many think to adjust that?
A must view for Pentax AF critics!
Pentax AF . Ok , regardless of wether you guys like him . Have any Pentaxians who shoot bif or sports anything to add , about his improved af claims.

I received the Canon printer news in an email I subscribe to. Not photo printers sadly. Single black will mean no pigment ink for good text in documents.

It didn't say how much the ink bottles were. I continue to use a Canon all in one six ink machine, now about five years old. It has two blacks (pigment for paper, dye line for photos and an extra grey. it works well on about £1 a cartridge pattern chipped inks. I change them when it says to avoid any air in jets. That cheap I can afford to. I have prints on walls, out of the sun, at least five years old. i'd need a full pigment pro ink printer for longer anyway.
£10 for a 70ml colour works out at 33p per ml. And
£13. For 135ml black works out at 9.5p per ml

Compared to
£2 per ml for the mg range and
£1.06per ml for the pixma pro range.

A good idea and about time , probably in response to the poularity of 3rd party inks.
Although not entirely photo quality.
Wonder how other printer manufacterers will respond incuding Ricoh.

Seems to me(i have no proof) that the non advertisement dependent revewers speak more keenly about the K1 and other Zpentax products.

Pentax beats the Sony and Nikon, consistently for colour accuracy and dynamic range.
This guy is primarily a Nikon shooter , but owns. K1 and previously Sony.

I dont have the money to spend, but a budget full frame and a super high spec full frame.
Pentax Ricoh seem to be a dslr and high end fixed frame camera maker.
They really need to branch out , there is a market for bridge cameras , compact xoom and evf type cameras , if they want to grow , they need to expand on there offerings.
