The renowned Pentax 50 f1.4 not good enough? My how times have changed...

I think you have homed in on the important points that are key to the relevance of the K-01. There has been plenty of debate about the styling (I am one who thinks it's pretty cool and seems a...

Flash is history and it's a battery killer. I understand why Apple doens't want it near any of their mobile products. Avoid. Adobe knows it's history too. I think we know enough already that HTML5...

I couldn't agree more. The specs look pretty much as I'd like but wouldn't mind a bit smaller in body. But I'm happy to have that trade off to access the K mount lenses (I think I am going to enjoy...

.. To mirrorless and no to electronic viewfinders/screens. I'm not a Luddite but you can't beat the optical viewfinder (at least not for some time yet) and that probably meas a moving mirror (or go...

Hi Dominique. that was amazing! I always love seeing your photos but I really enjoyed also the story of your travel and thank you also for the map trail. What an experience and great photos...

Agreed. The very first DA lens to be released in early 2004 and I had one the early ones. Loved it. Low distortion for a 16mm wide zoom (so much better than DA*16-50) and great edge to edge...

The important things with this compact is the optical viewfinder and the manual zoom, both of which are sadly hard to find anymore yet without them compacts are simply awful to use. I am not just...

Hi Mark, good to see you posting. Hope you are well. The Q is indeed cute and the compactness very appealing as an additional camera for when convenience or discretion are required. I guess at...

Hi Francois, if you like the Domke range and these are your criteria you might like also consider the Domke F-803 satchel as it ticks your boxes. I have the F-3x as well but stopped using it for...

Nice photos! Thanks for sharing. A lot of pleasure to be had in using the Super Taks -- just got to watch out for flare has been my experience. The coatings prior to the S-M-C weren't so...

Nice variety of work Chris and a pleasure to look at. Regards, -- Brett www.pbase.com/shreder http://www.pbase.com/image/30805961.jpg The Journey is the Thing

Oh yes, yes, yes Andy. I like that stuff very much and I like the FA43 very much as well. I have my own film project under way with the FA43 on an old MX --- I just hope they turn out half as...

You've put a bit of thought into that Russell but, just checking my own case, there isn't really enough room in the case to wrap anything that encircles right around the lenses. Anyway, I don't...

My experience is that they aren't going to /roll out/ exactly but the lens could be a little more secure if the design was different. To handle it, I tend not to unzip the case without first lying...

Sorry to hear it. But, unless you have the right tools and know exactly what you are doing you don't have any choice really than to send it to the authorised Pentax repairer. From your profile you...

I agree x 2. A very nice collection Regards, -- Brett www.pbase.com/shreder http://www.pbase.com/image/30805961.jpg The Journey is the Thing

Excellent collection. I love an airshow! -- Brett www.pbase.com/shreder http://www.pbase.com/image/30805961.jpg The Journey is the Thing

It's a funny sort of circle for Ricoh because of course Ricoh used it's own version of the Pentax K mount on it's own SLRs (not that it had anything to do with the decision to buy the Pentax camera...

I like the sense of movement created with the tram and a great subject for it. Nice work. I was in Istanbul was 15 yrs ago. I was young and hadn't been too many places - it just blew my mind....
