I have found that two batteries in my K10 (one in the camera and one in the grip) will last for a very long time. I often go for weeks without charging them. If you are worried buy some extras (there are reasonable non-Pentax ones around, search old posts for suggestions) and just take a set with you.

Cheers, Kris.

Turning on the extended bracketing is not the issue. When you are in GREEN mode the bracketing features (all of them) are turned off.

I would abandon using the green mode for anything, it is the same as P but with lots of stuff disabled.

For HDR either use manual (as John said) or Av mode and the bracket feature.

Cheers, Kris.

Welcome to the fora. Have fun, and post some pics when you get the chance. Don't neglect your Super A though (if you still have it), a fine camera and yes, do try your 50mm on the new camera, you'll like the results!

Cheers, Kris.

This is off topic but that photo doesn't look like a "Steve" to me

Cheers, Kris.

Hi Paul,Are you going to shoot bikes at Snetterton by any chance ? Just looking at your location. You will find for bikes the longer the better. Maybe a fastish 300 with a 1.4X would be good. The deciding factor will obviousle be money. One good thing about Snett is at least you can get quite close (Russell) and there is no catch fencing to get in the way. What kind of budget do you have ?

..... and do you fancy a A* 300mm with teleconverters...

Sorry, couldn't resist pulling Richard's leg...

Bloody awful, 'scuse my French.

I have just forwarded that to my American girlfriend as a lesson in how NOT to speak.

Thanks for the link. I'll try and stop crying.

Cheers, Kris.

I like this photo but would be tempted to crop out some of the empty road at the bottom.

Best wishes, Kris.

I cannot comment on the Sigma but I love the 50-135mm. Heavy lens, but lovely colours and bokeh.

Cheers, Kris.

Hells Bells this is an ancient thread.

Age 16, the ME Super was the camera to have. Excellent reviews, won prizes, LOTS of ads (Pentax take note!) etc. Saved my pennies from working in the newsagent. Friend bought one in the US for me (it was cheaper there). Fell in love.

Still have the original camera and lens, and one or two more. Tried other cameras over the years, usually through work. Stuck to Pentax.

Cheers, Kris.

I miss that little "raised node". Changing the newer lenses in the dark is a right pain in the posterior. Oh well.

Cheers, Kris.
