You have more confidence in me that I have, Peter. How can it happen? I know nowt about the process. I am an administrator with little knowledge of computers beyond word processing and photoshop.

I seem to remember a non pentax rubber eye piece magnifier that fits the k10. My main purpose is to keep my nose away from the viewing screen. The pentax clip on seems to be bulky and more than i need. Any advice, please

Thanks for all your help. I just seem to be in a foreign land with a foreign language for all I can grasp. Right out of my depth. But grateful to be on this site that offers so much advice, so thanks again. Passing this back to the Committee.

What is needed is a web site to enable anyone in our area to log in and see just what our club is about, details of meetings, times, programmes and competition results. There are five other photo clubs here that do have a web site and obviously our club will miss out on potential new members. I have only recently become involved in the running of the club and need to ask a lot of questions. Just shattered to discovered how expensive the web sites are. We have no computer buffs in the club to explore this avenue. Grateful for the replies, but still not sure how to go forward. thoramay.

I have been quoted £700 plus £20 a month service charge for a photo club website. Our club cannot possibly afford this. How do other clubs manage, please?

Thing is, guys. The member operating the projector is pasing it on. The system he uses is not user friendly. I have been asked to help out but am not computer literate much. I need a programme that is stand alone, not windows or photoshop based. I am hoping that I can find a programme that will let me do a slide show, cancel out the shots that are marked and just leave the selected pics for final judgement. Any comments!! How do you do it? I also need a picture like the test screen used to tune in the old television. The present guy keeps changing the focus during screening. It makes me scream silently. I want to set up the projector to a test screen so that all pics must balance up to this setting. Am I wrong???

Hi. Does anyone know of a stand alone computer programme for showing projected images at club comps. The programme we use at present is complicated and long winded. Also, is there a focusing aid to setting up the projector that can be downloaded.

Nothing ventured, Graham. Will put a pic on the Gallery using mirrors, just to give you an interest.

Graham. Two pieces of mirror glass set in a vee shape. Shooting from front on you will get three reflections and no camera in the shot. Great fun. You can also put mirror glass under the vee shape. It will open all sorts of possibilities. If you can find a piece of smoked glass you will increase your effect. I find using mirror glue to stick these pieces onto ply/MDF. helps Also possible is to put your subject onto the miror glass and shoot from a high position.

Thanks guys. Was wondering about box horses. Being a A1 DIYer, making the frames is no problem. Guess it will evolve. It is the lighting that concerns me, mostly. I have glass and mirror glass that I will use. A sheet of smoked glass creates super reflections. Will get the wife to sort out muslin/fabric. Just wondered how others do it. All suggestions welcome. I would love to put some shots on the Forum but that is where my expertise falls down. It is mostly macro/closeup work that I do.
