It almost looks like you started to draw a black and white Mondrian, and only

Re: PESO Fallingwater

2024-07-23 Thread Scott Loveless
Thanks, Rick!

If I'm following you, the lower left is a section of the Berlin Wall.
The circular structure is a sculpture titled "Room" by Andy
Goldsworthy.  Kentuck Knob is owned by Lord Peter Palumbo, who
apparently collects art, much of which is displayed there.  This was
the explanation for not allowing photography inside the house.  The
sculptures on the grounds had no such restrictions.

Somewhat like winter tyres with spikes which damaged the roads and 
became dangerous projectiles, so they were eventually banned in most of

Fantastic Gallery, Dave.  I really enjoyed that. Very nostalgic - those 
guys are doing a great job. Majestic horses which seem to be enjoying 
the outing. I once worked a vac. on a mixed farm back in the 60's where 
the tractors & equipment were oldish but well maintained by a clever 
mechanic. The horses were only for recreation (polo ponies). I remember 
some old Dodge Fargo Bakkies too.

Nice gallery, Dave. Always fun to see the old stuff being put to use, 
even if it's just on special occasions.  Where I grew up, as late as the 
1950s, you could still see signs on the rural roads "Tractors with lugs 
prohibited".

True, but I really enjoyed the Durham scenes (& the accent!). My wife & 
I attended 4 Biennial Phillips Analytical conferences there in Sept. in 
the 1990's. (X-Ray Fluorescence & X-Ray Diffraction). Accommodation was 
in the Castle & we extended our stay each time to explore the area -  so 
much to see. The Great North Run too. One year there was a big RAF 
Parade & March around the green between the Cathedral & the Castle 
followed by a Memorial Service in the Cathedral.  Great views from the 
Bell Tower - my Pentax worked overtime. Perhaps I will dig out & 
digitise some of the negs. And, no, I won't be buying a 17. I still have 
a perfectly serviceable MZ-60 should I feel the urge.

Re: PESO: emperor dragonflies

2024-07-07 Thread Henk Terhell

Alan, that review confirms my experience with this lens about AF-S and AF-C.
The body is the limiting factor in AF. However this review is from 2017 
so they haven't tested it on the K-3 III.
I bought the K-70 a few years ago to fit the 55-300 PLM (it won't 
combine with my K-5) and for me this is a pleasant light weight combo to 
walk around in nature.

For birding you often need a longer lens which I don't have.
Only if it gets stuck I would switch to a mirrorless system like the 
Fujifilm XT-5.

this system to the point where I need a second fan.
With the variable-speed fans that only run as fast as necessary it's
really quiet in my usage.


I water cooled my system. Partly because I wanted to, and partly because 
it was recommended. I've seen a couple of fan coolers that I could have 
used.


Even with liquid cooling I've had CPU temps in the mid 90ºC range when 
doing some heavy image processing. It won't stay there for long, but 
when I'm doing a big focus stack it will jump quite high and then settle 
back into the 60º range.

No reason to go watercooling when there are air coolers like that.
Quieter and less problematic - can't have a water leak if there's no
water.
I'll upgrade my PC someday (probably not this year), and my planned
solution looks similar to yours. Except I'll go Zen 5 (Ryzen 9700X,
likely), as they'll be available by then.

Upgrading win 10 to 11 is pretty straightforward if I remember correctly.
And the GUI is identical, I don't see why you can hate Win11 and love
Win10. Microsoft is still weeding out old Win10 code and if you deep dive
in the system the old stuff is still running (like control panel, device
manager etc). The Settings app is not my favorite tool to tweak, the same
for Apple OS's settings app (maybe that's improved but my Mac Mini from
2012 is frozen by Apple).

Some dragonflies do indeed hover, so you have sometimes one or more

The fast emperor is not one of these, but I have earlier taken some in

The PLM is a fast and silent lens, however all Pentax bodies (perhaps

Very nice! 

The 35GT-E and 35GT-X versions improved radically on robustness and 
reliability. Mine has never needed anything but an occasional fresh battery. 
The -E gave you manual ISO settings, the -X read the ISO from the film 
canister. That manual control of ISO nets full control of exposure so that's 
what I bought. Never regretted for one instant... :D

Just plain luck to see them 'in copula', busy shaking off another

These emperors are always very fast in flight and the only other 
chance to shoot one is when the female is laying eggs on the water 
surface.

Re: Size Comparison of 17 and GRiii

2024-07-05 Thread Godfrey DiGiorgi
The Pentax 17 looks like a decent camera, albeit to my eye the styling seems a 
little clunky and I don't understand the need for all those controls and mode 
settings. The choice of half-frame 35 format is interesting, memories of a lot 
of fine photos made with Olympus Pen EE cameras comes to mind. 

However, this is arguably my all-time favorite compact 35mm camera. It's 
full-frame 24x36 mm format... 
  Minox 35GT-E :: 
https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53837228803_b43a592cb9_b.jpg

I bought it new in 1998, cost about $400 IIRC. The lens is excellent quality, 
the negatives are terrific. The only thing it lacks, for me, is a full manual 
exposure setting capability, but the aperture priority auto plus manual ISO 
setting net all the adjustability I could want. With the lens door folded, it 
is smooth and compact, slips nicely even into a jeans pocket. The makrolon 
plastic construction is very tough and difficult to scratch.

A few photos of it and with it: 
https://www.flickr.com/search/?user_id=23913128%40N02=date-taken-desc=Minox+35GT-E_all=1

I wish I could find as elegant, small, and simple a digital camera as the Minox 
35GT-E.

Larry, these are very nice. I have some questions:

Did you California types have a partial solar eclipse that allowed you to take 
the first photo? It’s very nice.

About the rattlesnake and lizard: I hope the snake was behind glass! If so, how 
did you shoot it with no glare at all?

The Coors can shot is just kind of sad.  So many people are slobs. We’ve done a 
lot of hiking in the White Mountains in New Hampshire, and the amount of trash 
we’ve sometimes hauled out has been remarkable.

The second tractor pic, and the shot of the cellist, are both excellent. The

of the big differences between scanning Minox submini and 35 or 120 formats is 
that no matter how scrupulously clean you keep your processing work area and 
scanning rig, there is always a degree of dust spotting to deal with on every 
frame. LR Classic makes this easy—it has excellent tools and a great workflow 
for spotting—but it still takes a bit of extra time per frame. It's a part of 
the submini experience...

Yes, common tern is correct. Bokeh is difficult in this case. A pentax 560
would be better but my wallet and back don't agree.
This coolpix is 900 grams and 2000mm range.

Yes, they extend out to completely cover/protect the contacts.  They 
also have a rubber O-ring that help with some friction to keep the cap

I shoot DNG exclusively (though I usually run the files through DNG
Converter when downloading because I can have it do file renaming at
the same time and it gets me to the latest spec DNG) for 3 reasons, in
increasing order of importance:

1 - Files are smaller than PEF

2 - The open format of DNG (it's based on TIFF) is better for future
compatibility than almost anything else (except possibly TIFF itself
and JPEG)

3 - The embedded MD-5 hash makes file validation possible en mass,

That was exactly the course I took  (well, JPEG+DNG).
I continued doing this when I moved on to a K5.

Thanks everyone, for your responses.  The question came up in another

"real" Pentax users.  With few exceptions, DNG has been my format of 
choice since my DS days as well.

Re: Quick survey

2024-06-23 Thread Matthew Hunt
I shoot PEF, and convert to DNG on import with Lightroom ("Copy as DNG").

The reason I do this is that when Lightroom does the conversion, it embeds
a checksum that can later be used with "Library > Validate DNG Files" to
verify that no disk corruption has occurred. At least at the time I decided
to do things this way, DNG as shot by my cameras did not embed this
checksum.

Once a month, I select all the photos in my catalog and run the Validate
task. (Knock on wood, it has never found an error so far.)

The *ist-D allowed you to save as PEF, TIF or JPG.

Herbert Kepler recommended TIF in his Popular Photography column, so 
that's what I shot in 2004.


IIRC, the TIF was available in small, medium & large, which I didn't 
understand at the time. After I got home in 2005 & could buy more CF 
cards fairly easily, I switched to PEF.


Continued to shoot PEF when I finally got a K10D. Began shooting DNG 
files late in 2012 when I got a K20D.


Occasionally I would shoot JPEG (when I would somehow gum up the 
settings) or RAW+JPEG


With the K-3 & K-1 I've shot exclusively DNG.

With the VueScan software, I can also save files from my scanners as DNG.

No doubt the future for Adobe's DNG is more bright than for PEF.


The earliest Pentax DSLRs up to the *istDS had no DNG. The K10D was the 
first to offer DNG.

Do you shoot your RAW files as DNGs or PEFs?  Have you found one gives 
you better results or is a better choice than the other?

That's true, I recall now that I did use PEF on my *istD, but also a lot 
of JPEG and TIFF.

My next camera was the K10D and I always had it on DNG.
