  • Created discussion No Pentax = No Interest
    Extremely disappointed that Pentax wasn't listed under the "Shop by Brand" menu.  No Pentax? No interest from me. Mike Freeze
  • I don't find any mention of weather resistance in the link - anyone know? Mike Freeze
  • Replied in Self portrait
    Are you using a radio popper (or similar) to trigger the flash?  Which one?
  • The strap that came with my K-5 was 45 inches of usable length (after you hook it up you have 45 inches remaining).  This is way too short for my taste - I'm 6'3" and I like to wear the camera in a...
  • I tried to buy and got message "sorry, this seller is on vacation..."strange - not sure I want to buy now even if they "come back" from vacation.  Buyer beware,Mike Freeze
  • Been waiting for the price to come back down, my new 15 limited is ordered! Mike Freeze
  • I use my Canon wired release with my K-5, no problems.  I have 100 feet of extension with it, so it's nice that it works on my Pentax as well.   Mike Freeze
  • Yeah, that sucks.  But we have the excellent Pentax 60 - 250, so at least there isn't a total vacuum in this range.  Still, I'm disheartened with Sigma's callous disregard for we serious...
  • I also ordered on the 1st, just got email saying deliv date expected to be Jan 31 - Feb 25.  So there you go, expect a similar email soon.  Yellow brick is on the way, I don't mind the wait at...
  • Feb 11 at 5:47 pm eastern standard time. Other guesses may differ, but that's my best one.  Mine will be delivered 2 days after yours, or at least that's my best guess.  :>)    Mike Freeze...
  • Mine is on the way soon as Amazon gets them back in stock.  For $316 US dollars, the yellow K-01 with the 40mm pancake lens included is an incredible bargain - gee whiz, the 40mm lens alone sells...
  • Thanks - very good summary - I will look into both the panosaurus and the nodal ninja.  Mike Freeze
  • Created discussion Pano Head Advice
    For all you panoramic shooters; seeking advice for the best value purchase of a pano head for occasional use.  I like to get out and about, weight/size/packing ability is an issue.  I certainly...
  • Commented on The DSLR Field Camera article

    I want to purchase a pano head. Can anyone with experience recommend a good value pano head? thanks,

    Mike Freeze

  • a whopping 1220.  Camera is several months old now but work/life has not given me hardly enough time to play with it.  Most of the shots are mundane work-related snaps.  I will likely double that...
  • Good advice to call directly.  I did - actually I emailed and then called Jacob Waldner at Adorama (jwaldner@adorama.com) to get his best price - I got the 70mm limited for $549 ($150 cheaper than...
  • Much thanks for all that replied, this discussion has been very helpful to me.  I did narrow my choice down to either the da* 50-135 or the 70 limited - I like them both for different reasons.  I...
  • Created discussion Portrait Lens Choice
    I need the expertise of you folks who are experienced with multiple Pentax lenses.  I am deciding between either one of the limiteds (70 or 77) or the 50-135 DA* for a portrait lens.  I know there...
  • Thanks for the replies.  It appears that you can do what I had in mind.  LR4 takes a bit of effort to learn its quirks.  Thanks again,Mike Freeze
  • Created discussion Using LR4 on 2 Computers
    I use LR4 on my desktop and wonder if I can use it on a notebook and somehow "merge" the catalog on the desktop into the desktop catalog. So then - I travel out of town, take the notebook computer...
