Re: K10D hotfilter...

Well we know it has been possible to remove from earlier camera
models. Wonder if their answer would be the same for eg. *istD...

Thanks Christine. It looks like a split decision on this. But like you, I 
prefer this more dramatic angle. I also like the full frame.

Re: PESO - "Extreme Crane"

[Jack Davis]

I think the noise contributes to the bokeh and partially masks detail.
Don't know if said combination rises to the level of "artsy", however. If it 
does it for you, what else really matters.
My eye is likely letting me down.

Hi Ken:  Not so keen on this in color, but I wonder if the softness of the

My 67 has the non-metered prism, so I need an external meter. I use a 
Pentax K10D :) I just set the DSLR sensitivity to the ISO setting of the 
film I'm using, fit a lens with the approximate angle of view I need and 
bracket shots until I get one that looks right (no highlight/shadow 
blinkies). Then I have my exposure.

Re: Spotmeter - which one to buy?

After digging into list archives, i found 2 years old thread with 
similar subject.
These old Pentax spotmeters look little bit bulky :D

So i have to find sweet spot between functionality, price and size.
Anything beyound of size like box of cigarettes is too much.
It is nice, if you can pack all "photo" stuff into one bag.

Actually mountain and nature photography is easy with Pentax 645. 
Metering is perfect.
But my set is 4+ kilograms, with 3 lenses :(

Gasha, back to Google and eBay...

Re: Spotmeter - which one to buy?

[Brendan MacRae]

I totally agree. That was why I went with a meter that
combined both. My first experiences with hand held
meters, all incident, was in film school. Back then I
used the Sekonic Studio Deluxe analog model, a great
little meter. Later I got the Minolta IV-F digital
which made things go a bit faster.

Re: Spotmeter - which one to buy?

[Paul Stenquist]

When I was shooting with a 6x7, I used both a spotmeter and incident  
meter. Actually, I used the incident meter most often. You really  
need both. When the light on the subject is the same as where you're  
standing, the incident meter is best. When it varies or when you have  
to quantify a highlight or shadow, the spotmeter is best.

Re: Spotmeter - which one to buy?

[Brendan MacRae]

I found an old Soligor spotmeter at the thrift store
the other day. It was in ok condition, but I didn't
buy it since I didn't have a 9v battery to test it.
They only wanted $15 for it so they can be had cheaply
if you look around. More likely though you'll be
paying 50-100 dollars for one depending on condition.

I have the Sekonic L-758DR and it's a great spot
meter. It's also a great incident meter but it's very
pricey. I wouldn't recommend it if spot metering is
all you're looking for. Try an older Pentax. These can
be had for much less and they have legendary
reliability.

RE: Spotmeter - which one to buy?

[Bob W]

I don't know what you consider to be bells and whistles, but I have a
Sekonic L-608 which is very reliable and robust. 

The Pentax spotmeter has an excellent reputation and is only a
spotmeter - no incident or flash etc.

PESO - Wattle Grove

[David Savage]

G'day All,

While visiting the town of Dwellingup on the weekend I spied this
large stand of wattle trees down a side street & had to investigate
(~340kb)


K20D, DA 10-17mm Fisheye @ 10mm 1/160 @ f4.5, ISO 100

Here is a close up of the flowers (~250kb)


K20D, DA 10-17mm Fisheye @ 17mm 1/100 @ f4.5, ISO 100

For those of you familiar with the Monty Python "Bruce" sketch, this
is the plant that you can stick in a bottle or hold in your hand.

Spring is on it's way.

Cheers,

Dave

It's a smart *phone*. I browse the web and listen to music at the same  
time with the iPod Touch, which runs the same software. That's good  
enough for me. The day I need to multitask with a phone is probably  
when I smash the freekin' thing and turn off the service.

Exactly. I'm still bunging with the Treo650 and it works adequately  
for what I want a telephone for, but then I really don't use a  
telephone all that much. The iPod Touch actually saves me money on my  
phone bill because I don't use the damn phone for net connection ...

But ... What does this have to do with some enterprising individuals  
using their Pentax to make photographs of the Earth from ultra high  
altitude?

I like this one best of all, too, Paul.

It's that boy's hand in the air.  "Yee-haw, ride 'em cowboy!"

All are fun shots;  they bring back the innocence of youth and

Re: I found a K15/3.5 for sale but price ?

[P. J. Alling]

On ebay I've seen them go fro between $600 US and $1100 US.  Too rich 
for my blood I'm afraid, though the A version usually goes for a couple 
hundred dollars more on average.   Weather it's worth the price to you 
really depends on how much you want one.

Are you sure that justice is a word you want to use in this context.

I dunno if I mays buy it but still would like to know a normal price

Spotmeter - which one to buy?

[Cirvis]

Hi all,

recently i managed to make my own battery pack for Pentax 6x7.
Thanks for help from list, and good web resources.

Im going very soon to do some walks and climbs in Italian/Swiss Alps, 
and i seriously consider to give a chance to 6x7.

Then i need some external meter. I can gen one from eBay or KEH cheap.
Any recomendations?
Gossen, Pentax, Sekonic?

It must be reliable piece of equipment, well built like 6x7 and 
bells/whistles are not needed.
At least now :)

Gasha

Re: Beautiful blog

Here's a translation, courtesy of a friend...

1) A great sunset again. With the ocean.
2) "The right hand is a rock and the left hand is scissors. It's a
snail". Hey, it's upside down.
3) This is the correct version for a snail.
4) Love at first sight.

On his "about" page, this photographer says:

"I record ordinary things in ordinary days. It's mainly shots of my
daughter Umi (means sea), my son Sora (means sky), my wife and our dog
Wakuchin, but since I don't go out much, you only see our house and

Re: OT - Bank Password Pants :)

[AlunFoto]

LOL

Reminds me of my interlude as a IT manager for a local college, ten
yars ago. Some students were notorious for forgetting passwords. I
adopted a certain routine for assigning new passwords as follows:

1. Their first two new passwords were handed out discretely. Everyone
can have a lapse sometimes.
2. Their third new password would be "distracted", announced before the class.
3. Their fourth new password would be "forgetful", announced before
the class and written on the blackboard.
4. Their fifth new password would be "demented", announced before the
class and written on the blackboard. Twice within half an hour.

A cheaper way would be ebay and a jailbreak.

My first gen iphone went to my son. I paid 30GBP for a well-resourced
unlocking software and that now runs on Vodafone UK. 720 bucks seems
very steep for the country as a whole.

With a suitable bar mount, it would make navigation on your bike a dream 8-D

then that review is just plain misleading. this is 'multi-tasking'

fair enough and it works for you. ;-) and it doesn't seem to cost the
earth over there. however, i do think an entry price of more than $720
here is too high though most of it goes to the telecom companies. most
of the nokia e-series phones are priced much much lower here, have
comparable features and still come out a bargain even after adding
network charges.

of course, i knew that. i did add a smiley, didn't i? :-)

Good point. I don't have Instant Messenger so don't know how awkward
that might be. I can, however, listen to music while doing other things,
eg the iPod function works while (say) browsing the internet, collecting
my email, navigating by GPS etc. So perhaps to say that it cannot
multitask whatsoever is inaccurate.

My point would be that it works brilliantly for me. It is a small
portable device that works in support of my main computer - there are
lots of things I wouldn't want to do on it. But as a thing I can pull
out of my pocket and either collect or retrieve data - as well as being
a phone - I personally have never experienced anything as good. Treos,
Blackberrys, Nokias, everything included. Sure, it's eye-candy - but
it's also a very high-quality piece of kit that is extremely functional.
