A normal SATA cable will also provide a temperature readout and so will IDE. Problem is without that firmware you can't control the fans so no upgrade possible.

You would not be able to control zoom even if it worked as zoom lenses are not motorized. Pentax once produced some powerzoom lenses but it never really took off.

The link above shows supported cameras and features. Really it is just an expensive IR remote so you can't do much with it.

You are probably better off getting a Pentax IR remote or trying tethering.

I wonder of anyone has seen the latest Apple lock down. New iMacs use a proprietary SATA connector for the HDD and a proprietary firmware which means the hard disk cannot be upgraded without going to Apple for an Apple specific version. If you replace it the cooling fans run at full pelt and screech.

Seriously, non-upgradable hard disks just takes the biscuit.

I just meant 1/1 1/2 1/4 1/8 1/16, etc.

Need to know how many steps as some only have a few stops of control.

Total power is useful but the level of control is more so.

What manual power settings do they have?

Aye, it costs about £20 to post a package of that value Special Delivery AFAIK.

It is Photoshop Elements 9, Premiere Elements 9 and Lightroom 3.4. Only Adobe's software seems to have this silly style of menu

The fonts are alphabetically sorted in the windows fonts folder, Adobe's software seems to read it out of order though.

It may be hard to see as it has been made smaller by photobucket.

The only way to scroll is with the upper and lower arrows and that is slow and cumbersome especially as there are hundreds of fonts AND they are not all in alphabetical order! (which is why it looks like a shorter list than it really is)

Congratulations.

That is also quite some magnification on the spider and a good reflection which I had not noticed previously.

I really don't like blown highlights but it normally isn't an issue with the K10D as it exposes quite conservatively (a nice way of saying underexposes). I'd rather it did that and me having to push the image slightly after. If the contrast is high then it becomes a problem very quickly.

Smeggy, is that 1st shot from a K10D? It looks like the soft of clipping that happens with a K10D.

I have shots where the clipping doesn't matter or where I have clipped it on purpose to get really bright whites. Otherwise clipping has ruined a few shots as well
