  • Commented on Robin Lake Sunset in the Sunset in the mountains V challenge

    I envy you this one. Wish I had been there and shot it. Well done!

  • Given the unchanged optical formular, the updates may not change the resolution characteristics of these lenses. But the updates should nonetheless affect IQ by reducing flare even further,...

  • If the laboratory test results are even remotely representative of what you could expect in the field, the mediocre sharpness at the wide end, in combination with the pronounced distortion, doesn't...

  • Jeez, I guess I don't see the problem. Much as I would hate to see the Pentax label go on future DSLRs of the company, Ricoh has made clear that this is exactly *not* what they're up to. And from...

  • K-500, K-50, K-5 II (s) ... Well, I guess that Pentax executive quoted in the article is right about the brand finally having "a DSLR lineup". And that is certainly good news. Because it shows how...

  • Pardon my ignorance, but what is that mysterious foundation on which Sigma was built? Since the film days I have shot several Sigma lenses - on Minolta and Sigma bodies - and actually they were all...

  • A bit late into the product cycle, a bit patchy (too much recycled material, with at times outdated comparisons, as has been noted by others), but finally we have a full review of these chronically...

  • Lovely stuff, that. Gentle humour, maybe not of the LOL brand, but welcome comic relief when photographic, or rather gear-related passions are about to boil over ... ;-)

  • Er, why do so many commentators deride this article on the grounds that photo manipulation is nothing new, and in fact as old as photography itself? Well, it is, but nobody tried to argue this...

  • Well, there's actually people out there who have shot pretty decent photographs with that "dog", as you call the K-7. If you doubt it, start searching places like the Pentax Photo Gallery, 500px...

  • Er, even if I'm not the first to ask that question: Will the K-5 II/IIs get its own full-blown review here on this site - I mean anytime soon? I'm not posting this to indulge in any sort of...

  • Commented on Theme and Variations article

    A lucidly written, instructively illustrated, and generally stimulating article. Fun, too, precisely *because* the author's backyard happens to be this fascinating strip of the Irish coast. (I am...

  • Commented on IMGP6388-2 photo in Madaboutpix's photo gallery

    Thanks for your kind praise - it means a lot to me. Especially so, since the shots in your own gallery would seem to mark you as someone who has an eye for B&W photography. Really like your shots...
