We were not arguing slow lenses on DSLRS
we were arguing the relative difficulty
of slow wide angles vs slow telephotos
on ANY SLR camera finder, ( At least thats
what I was arguing). I am stating that
because that difference is caused by
the difference in properties of the lenses,
not the finders.
That's true. I don't know if this applies to Nimh batteries, but
nicads can be "trained' to discharge faster. When my son and I raced
electric radio control cars, I would train the nicads by discharging
them on a resistor pack with just 1/2 an ohm resistance. I had some

How about the grip? Does that have a set of batteries in it?
I've found that I usually see this problem if I've got batteries
loaded in both the grip and the camera, and one of the sets is
less than fully charged. Taking out one of the sets of batteries
makes the problem go away.

Hi,
I have posted glowing reviews before about the photographs and books
of James Ravilious. His books are quite hard to find, but I have just
received a copy of "Down the Deep Lanes", which is still in print and
available from Amazon UK, so for anyone who is interested, but hasn't
been able to fi
I have received a couple of messages from Paul on the same subject, one of
which was fleshed out with some details and specifics.

OK. So it seems to be that the best approach is to stick with a known
brand of good quality, and use the highest mah that can be found. Great -
you and Adam have answered my questions just fine. Thanks!

H, I thought the question was about 35mm lenses... or was it 105mm?
Now I have to use a zoom?
In what way was "his" post abusive? Who's post was that? Can you provide
an example of the abuse - perhaps quote the portion that was abusive?

The thing is, Paul, sooner or later JCO jumps into conversations and
threads and becomes abusive and begins to use foul language. Are you
suggesting that when he jumps into a thread, as he did when I posted my
observations about focusing, that even if he says nothing outrageous he be
ignored - IOW
AFAIK, he's still with Pentax ;-))

You shouldn't use a battery with higher or lower rated voltage, and I
suspect that there will be none available. Higher voltages can cause
overheating, lower voltages might not provide the potential to drive
the camera systems.
Actual voltage delivered will vary by some no matter what, anyw
So, what we want is a 7.4 volt battery (for the K10D) with the largest mah
that works in the physical size and form that will fit the camera. OK, I
understand that. Now, what happens if one uses a battery with greater or
lesser voltage? I'm sure there's a point at which the bats won't work
