Need I say anything else?

All my slow cards have died! the 32GB was class 2 SDHC and one 2 GB was slow (no rating). Fast 20/30/45MB/s cards are all fine!

2x 2GB
2x 4GB
2x 8GB

Average size 4GB, which is what I voted for.

Will buy 2x 16GB when I get newer cameras than the K10Ds.

Used to have more cards.

2GB Failed, 32GB Failed, 2GB lost to an other device and one vanished after a wedding. Luckily it had no photos on it.

I asked JP Solutions about Weather Sealing and they confirm they restore to factory condition including seals. Get in touch with insurance and get it to JP and all should be well.

Indeed, the cotton bud will actually deposit lots more dust, small fibres will fall off!



Arctic Butterfly for me, never had anything it cannot dislodge.

Those two IPS screens are good and at a good price.

The LG uses the same panel type as the Dell 2209WA which I use. E-IPS is a technology owned and manufactured by LG. The Dell is at the expensive end of E-IPS at £250 so the LG is very good value for money.

Perfect for sRGB work but I may need an Adobe RGB screen soon as I am doing more video and printing myself rather than online (sRGB).

Mine is an actual bus in Plymouth. Strangely bus rout 666 is not listed on the citybus website. They have a 333 which goes to kingsbridge. If that is half way to hell, then hell's mouth is...

somewhere out in the English Channel about 10 miles off Slapton Leigh.

If you want clarification on payments:

Faster Payments: is an 'instant' payment system subject to a queuing system which means it can take up to two hours. It operates 24/7 with no cut-off times. Many banks have a tiered role out of the system so you may not be able to make payments over a certain threshold, yet.

BACS: take 3 days total are subject to a cut off time and do not operate on bank holidays or weekends. Day 1 Payment sent, 2 'in transit' and 00:00 day 3 arrived in account (sometimes 8:00 or 9:00 depending on the bank).

Anything else is either for large value or guaranteed payments, so ignore CHAPS/Telegraphic transfers.

Never had a problem with the FP system, it is quite a big improvement in some respects to BACS.

Well why would you buy a DSLR telephoto when an image stabilised P&S with an 800mm+ lens is available for a fraction of the cost of an 800mm lens for a DSLR.

'Security' concerns about photographers are silly as all the photos you could ever want are on google. Failing that high quality P&S cameras are so small that you'd never even know a photo had been taken by someone using one.

Looks like a game of pass the Pentax.

I'll wait and see how this goes. If it goes badly at the end of the year I may sell up.

Ricoh is a similar company to Canon in some respects so this may be good for Pentax I.S.D.

Only time will tell.
