Re: The Thingy in the istDS
If you are prone to losing these little gizmos, and you have a broad enough strap, do as I did - thread some plastic film cassette holders between the two parts of the strap where it loops back through the buckle, quick stitch or even superglue to stop them falling out, and you can carry all sorts of stuff in them. The lids stay on so it's weatherproof too.

Re: K10D defect and repair
In my 13 odd years of using Pentax equipment I hadn't had any failures. Then I had 2 within the last 12 months. - The S' button on my AF-540 FGZ flash unit died. The flash was exchanged for a new one. - The black 31mm Ltd. I recently purchased had to be exchanged because the A position had a bad connection.

PESO: Crossing swords
I went to see my first hockey game last Sunday (I'm kind of lame, three years in Canada and this is the first hockey game I go and I'm not even talking about NHL, I know...). Shooting conditions were not the best, I had a longer zoom than needed (didn't know my seats were so close to the rink), my fastest zoom is a beaten-up copy of the good'ol Vivitar S1 70-210/3.5 version 2 and I had to shoot through the protective glass (so you can see the scratches if you pay attention). An f/2.8 would've help, I shot wide open with a shutter speed of 1/180, I was expecting to get a 1/250 and I didn't want to push process later (I regret it know, but well, live and learn).

Re: CS3 ready for ordering.????????
This is in the FAQ: --- How many computers are covered by a single license of Photoshop Lightroom 1.0? Subject to the terms of the End User Licensing Agreement, the primary user of the computer on which Photohop Lightroom (the Software) is installed may install a second copy of the Software for his or her exclusive use on either a portable computer or a computer located at his or her home, provided that the Software on the portable or home computer is not used at the same time as the Software on the primary computer. You may be required to contact Adobe in order to make a second copy. Photoshop Lightroom is sold as multi-platform software, which means it can be installed on either Mac OS X or Windows. --- You can do one of two things: - Call Adobe customer service/sales and ask the question. And/or order the CD. - Download the 30 day free trial for both platforms, pay for one. Then plug the authorization code into both. If that causes any problem, call Adobe. Personally, I like having the CD package so I ordered it. I then downloaded the free 30 day trial and used it until my package arrived, plugged in the numbers. I installed on both my laptop and desktop systems, and it didn't require any call to Adobe to get things working. (Both my systems are Mac OS X.)

Re: Question about Web Galleries generated by Adobe Light Room
btw, since other PDMLers were there with me, i thought you might be amused by the test gallery ... http://www.gdgphoto.com/camdenlock/ It will be deleted sometime tomorrow, but tell me if you find any issues.

Re: PESO - More Daffs
You video guys know all the tricks. A piece of black Foamcore should be in every photographers kit. Or, wear a fedora, it has a thousand and one uses, a lens flag is use 43 GRIN!. -graywolf Cotty wrote: On 30/3/07, Boris Liberman, discombobulated, unleashed: Thinking of your suggestion, the thought of 15 full frame lens occurred to me. However, I should be sure to try it before I buy it. I think it will be too large a lens for me. You serious? The 15mm 3.5 isn't big. But it is beautiful. I think it's wonderful, but it does flare a bit if the sun has access. Solution: flag. http://www.cottysnaps.com/snaps/spare3.html -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net

Re: CS3 ready for ordering.????????
I imagine you have to pay for a copy for each computer you run it on. Otherwise you are a dirty no good thief. That's one reason, at least as far as RAW converters/workflow managers go, why BibblePro makes me happy. One license, install on your Windows/Mac/Linux machines as you see fit, so long as you are only user and you are actively using one copy at a given moment (honor system).
