Re: Re: Toughts... Pentax and Professional Photography
Hi guys There are a number of great cameras and lenses out there. I have been working professionally with my K20D and K10D for so,me time now. No problem. Of course the are things I can't do with them. Like shooting 8 fps. or shoot images that require VERY fast AF. But most of the time this is not the issue. Some lense manufactureres make lenses that can't be bought with a Pentax mount. That is a bit annoying. But in fact I CAN get a nice lense selection for Pentax, even a great lense for panoramas, like the Pentax/Tokina 10-17mm f. 3.5.-4.5, wich can be understood be the panoramic software. As I said many times before: No customer ever asked me about my equipment. They are just interested in the pictures. So am I, really :-) And the paycheck, naturally. Regards Jens -- Treat others as you would like to be treated yourself. On Apr 20, 2009 19:25 Luiz Felipe luiz.fel...@techmit.com.br wrote: I understand your point fairly well. I decided to work as photographer some time ago. Got the same comments from everywhere, since I was using a Pentax LX and no professional would use Pentax because those cameras weren´t up to Nikon, Canon, Minolta... Stubborn, I pushed and got some acceptance - and won some bets too. Then I needed some 120 format camera, and of course, I needed a Hasselblad... since the Pentax 67 was such a poor camera and the lenses were no good... One day I got really fed up, and cut my 67 slides a little more, placed them in 66 mounts and told one of the smart guys I had just bought a Hasselblad, and how did he like my photos? Smart guy congratulates me on my new gear, loves my photos, wich show an impressive evolution, not only because the Hassy was better, but also because I was able to control my photos better. After I get him to praise the shots in the next public meeting I just pull out the mount and tell him to get eyes checked. Won´t talk to me to this day, more than 20 years later... I did add some Canon FD gear later (a full set for a very good price and came with the selective metering Pentax wouldn´t offer then), found me a good-working 500 C/M (polaroid,645 and 66 backs, more leaf shutter lenses), bought a Sinar (4x5 and full moves, even if I used it more often with the 67 back), and for a time had a set of tools almost perfectly matched to the jobs at hand. While I became able to get more photos done, my photos didn't improve due to gear change... they actually suffered for a while, until I got to control the new gear as I handled the oldies. Time lag on the F1n alone made me return to the LX to grab some of those moments. Then all pro photo in Fortaleza was done in 120 format, so I sold the FD gear and returned to Pentax. Then the new trend would be Digital, and of course I needed Canon or Mamiya(!) or some costly adapter that would expose the colors in three different exposures, and one day I lose one specific project that was in the sixth month of development because... I was working with obsolete slide film, and some local guy deported from somewhere in the world for working without permit had just arrived with the perfect tool, capable of instant review, so he would continuously adjust the photos to the client interest... some brand new Nikon pro camera, under 6 mp... not the obsolete Hasselblad. Unless you would like the other aspects of the profession, you may end up enjoying your photos more as amateur. Not that I doubt you ARE capable of working - at the photographic level your photos would allow you to work anywhere you want. But the smart persons you´ll work for and the proper profee tool set are part of the deal. Even if you make your way with the Amateur-oriented Pentax.

With a Nikon D700 or Canon EOS 5D (MK1) I could start with luck :) Also my equipment really lacks many things to become a professional. All the shots with Dovile was made with the FA 50 f1.4 and I had some bad experience with the focusing speed and accuracy of the K20D. It also made me think about Pentax and Professional Photography. Pentax is the very best amateur level camera and so far I know they always were in the 35mm market. The Pentax K20D is a fantastic camera, but it has some serious downs. The AF is really a pain in the rear sometimes, not to mention the focus feedback with MF lenses. For Nature it's very good since you have time, but for sport and fashion it's kinda weak. I did 'journalist' photographies with a 40 years old Carl Zeiss lens (f4/300) and it was way better than the other guy with a Canon EOS 40D + 70-200 f4 L (said the editor :P), but I often feel the need of something quicker.

The noise is a result of backlit exposures being tweaked a bit in post.

OT - Big Changes
Well, this has happened before - most recently about two years ago - and it's happening again. I'm no longer a dispatcher, I'm a bike messenger again. We've been hit hard by the recession and our numbers are down so much that we don't need two dispatchers (one for bikes and one for cars). My salary stays the same, in fact it might even be a bit better, since I'll be on a guarantee plus commission if I break my guarantee, so that's all good. And this is a great time of the year weather-wise to be back on the road; I hate the winter, but love riding in the summer, so this should be fun (at least for a while). I'll also be taking my camera along with me from time to time, so this could be a good opportunity to document the messenger life for a bit... The down-side (for me, if not for you) is that I don't have a home computer and since I won't be sitting at this work computer after today, my posts to the list will be way down. And whatever public computer I post from won't have any imaging software in it, so my PESOs from today will likely be the last we'll be seeing for a while.

Re: OT - Big Changes
My salary stays the same, in fact it might even be a bit better, since I'll be on a guarantee plus commission if I break my guarantee, so that's all good.

Depends on the area - where do you work? Personally, I do prefer winter to a hot summer. It must be cold enough to be dry, while I do hate a wet autumn. On the other hand the frequent change between the could outside and overheated, dry office rooms is not that good for ones health. I'll also be taking my camera along with me from time to time, so this could be a good opportunity to document the messenger life for a bit... Take a DSLR with you along the rides?

Re: The Leica as a Teacher
Sorry if that's already posted - still catching up with the messages - but make mine Mx and M lenses. The Leica may be a masterpiece of engeneering from the past - dad owns two and I used both when young - but nothing beats framing what the film will see later, meaning SLR. If the manual-only Mx looks too simple or too expensive, the Me Super and company would fit perfectly, as long as used in manual mode... and the user manages to preview the DOF, even by slightly un-winding the lens until it closes the blades.

Like Dave Savage and a few others I've been shooting a good number of multi-image panos over the last few years, it can be quite rewarding. However I've found that determining whether your pre-compiled image really deserves post processing time and attention requires some automation. For this purpose I use AutoPano Pro, I let it loose on my newly downloaded thumbnail images to detect and automatically compile pano images, it matches up image sets quite successfully but it often also finds unintended panoramas, sometimes good but most often not. The following image is one that Autopano found and assembled and that I thought deserved a little closer attention, it's a composite of four images from two pano sets, one for the sky and the other everything else. The images were captured using a K10D and the source files were 2MP JPGs generated in camera, there are errors in the stitching but really it's amazing that it stitched so well.

Nice photography in the movie last night, sorta
We went to the cinema last night, and there were several times during the movie I noticed the photography. Nice colors, lighting, composition, good use of depth of field, and so forth. It was very visually appealing. But, the movie was Up. It was completely computer generated, which makes calling it photography somewhat problematic. However, judging it by exactly the same standards as one would judge photography, it was still very pleasing. I'm honestly not sure whether the closing credits were filmed, computer generated, or a mixture. The dof of the credits were weird, with the edges and the top of the screen sharp, and the middle and lower middle less so, I couldn't tell if that was camera work, computer generated to get you to read the top of the screen, or just due to things being misaligned in the theater. As to the movie itself, Pixar did it again. It's a good story, a fun movie, and the computer animation raised the bar on the state of the art. -- The fastest way to get your question answered on the net is to post the wrong answer.

Re: 2000 mm reflex lens
BH started showing the 2000 reflex a couple of months ago I believe. The last version of this lens was an M, and it was in production from 1982 to 2004. An earlier K version was produced from 1979 to 1982, and I think it was identical. Perhaps Pentax told BH that they had enough parts to assemble a couple of them. At one time BH promoted the FA 600/4 in the same manner. They're probably considered a good clearing house for limited-production specialty items. Or maybe BH found some NOS glass in the back room.

The last version of this lens was an M, and it was in production from 1982 to 2004. An earlier K version was produced from 1979 to 1982, and I think it was identical. Perhaps Pentax told BH that they had enough parts to assemble a couple of them. At one time BH promoted the FA 600/4 in the same manner.

The world's greatest Pentax service has just gone down the drain. :-(
My K10D has contracted a focussing problem. Optimum sharpness in the viewfinder and the AF confirmation in the display are way apart, with the AF signal being correct. Well, not to worry, I thought, let's give a call to the great Pentax service guys at Hamburg and find out what can be done about it. Just a quick click to the pentax.de website for their phone number YIKES!!! No more Pentax number, instead the address and number of a company I had never heard of. Ah well... the announced restructuring, the move of Pentax Europe to Paris and the disbanding of Pentax' own service department in Hamburg which had an outstanding reputation over many years. OK then, sigh, dialling the new number. A woman answers the phone with Canon Service xyz... can I help you? Canon Service??? WTF??? Oh yes, they've also been appointed Germany's only official Pentax service a week ago, she explains. No, sorry, she goes on, no idea what might be the trouble with my camera. But I could mail it in for an inspection. Their turnaround times? Oh, some 4 to 5 weeks. WHAT??? After over 30 years of a Pentax service where 2 weeks were already considered as rather long? Listen Hoya, one of the main reasons for Germans to buy Pentax was the greatest service on earth provided by your folks in Hamburg. No, you haven't just shot yourselves in the foot. You've nuked them off. Both. Still fuming, Ralf -- Ralf R.
