Looks like dead pixels to me...

This is a useful website for calculating DOF. Sadly, the Pentax fact sheet for this lens doesn't have DOF tables. Whatever happened to putting the DOF indicators on the lens?

I'm glad the caption explained what this was. Fascinating how different things look ultra close up. how did you set up this shot?

The DA15 comes very close to the price of the 12-24, I don't know if it's worth it or not. It's of course nice to have the whole Limited serie

As I only have the 43mm, and I already have the 12-24mm which is the same speed as the 15mm, other lenses are much higher up my list of wants. I think the FA77 may well be next...

The one at SRS is very cheap, but make sure it's got the rubber eyecup.

£129.00? Cheap? I think I'll stick to the Seagull...

I don't suppose a dSLR will ever come with LX like viewfinders. Too many electronics :

I'll third that recommendation.

Comment by womble posted on ME Super - anyone recommend a good place to get it serviced ? at 27/03/2009 - 22:44

Not sure what is wrong with your installation but I have never had that problem with Lightroom. I find the ability to flick through quickly, mark photos for deletion or as a pick, delete the crap, review the picks, all very quick and easy. When it comes to choosing which one from a number of very similar shots I use the split screen feature. In many ways I find this aspect of Lightroom one of its best features.

You can use M and K series lenses (these are the ones without the 'A' setting on the aperture) in manual stopped down mode all the time on a Pentax DSLR - not very useful IMO.

A bit off topic (sorry ) but doesn't that depend on the lens? What I mean is the A series 135mm got very bad reviews whereas the K series f/2.5 got very nice reviews which makes it worth having to push the little green button. Obviously, the way to go is to buy a DA* 50-135mm but that is the difference between 80 quid or so and 500 I just undermined my argument by having both

Cheers, Kris.
