Lenses fogging over
It seems that my PFA 50/1.4 is a lot more likely to fog over, especially when brought in from the cold, than any other lens I have. Tonight, it was fogging over at the slightest provocation, making it tough to get sharp pictures. Does anyone else have similar problems with any lenses? Is there anything that can be done? Put a UV filer on it so there isn't as much moisture next to the front element to condense on it? -- Larry Colen l...@red4est.com sent from i4est -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Put a UV filer on it so there isn't as much moisture next to the front element to condense on it? Putting a filter on usually makes it worse, in my experience. I suspect it's because the air between the front element and the rear of the filter is slightly warmer than the air outside, so the moisture condenses on the front of the filter.

Re: Lenses fogging over
I would suspect that it contains less plastic and hence takes longer to adapt to temperature changes (maybe also more glass where it hurts, i.e. front element?) so there is probably very little you can do about it :( cheers ecke 2010/1/9 Larry Colen l...@red4est.com: It seems that my PFA 50/1.4 is a lot more likely to fog over, especially when brought in from the cold, than any other lens I have.

RE: Fairygirl is in the house!
Har! Nope, we didn't make the bicycle trip - got busy having more babies instead! Added two more to the tribe since I was last on the list, so that makes five now... Oh, and I remarried too - hence the name Tanya LOVE - that is my real name, and we aptly call our home the LoveShack! lol. Last year was a really crappy, crappy year from us, we have a new business, Ankle Biters, an online and physical store with eco/organic products for kids and babies and we managed to get ourselves ripped off to the tune of $42k. LONG story, but basically, we are broke and 2009 sucked majorly, but we have themed 2010 as our year of recovery so that the annus horribulus (sic) that was 2009 can go take a hike! Oh yeah, did anyone know that I retired from photography? That was back in late 2006, when I popped out baby #4, Zali. Well, it seems that fate has other plans, and now I'm back at it again. No more weddings for me though, in my last year as a wedding photog. I dealt with about 79 Bridezillas, and that was enough to scare me off for life! Now, it's commercial photography all the way baby! Hehe. Still kids and babies (someone would think I was clucky or something!) but kids and babies PRODUCT Photography is my calling for now. I rejoined cause I was hanging out to know which of you rich old farts have got yourselves a K-7?? Me thinks me needs one Oh, did I mention that I am STILL using my Trusty old starkist?!? I think I've clocked the speedo about 10 times now, just clicked over another 10k the other day. It has a crack in the preview screen from one too many dives on the bitumen, but apart from that, she's still going strong! So, where is the cheapest place to get my hands on a K-7 at present? And what is the general consensus on it in comparison with the K20D? I am sure that this has been discussed to death a gazillion times over but I'm too lazy to go through all the archives, jeez you guys can talk! The K20D is going for aud$899 at Ted's Camera House here in BrisVegas right now, which looks the best deal I've found so far, so do you think it would be worth the extra $500 for the K7? Me being me and as hard as I am on my gear and all, was thinking that the weather proofing of the K7 might be a good little insurance policy to have... So, what have I missed? Just checked out the 2008 Photobook and I see that you guys STILL haven't gotten over your fixation for bloody cormorants and hmmm, Grandfather Mountain! Some familiar scenes there!

Hi Tanya, I've been shooting with K7 for almost six months now, and I've clocked 9950 exposures. I love it. The K20D was nice, but the K7 is a major improvement. First on my list of pluses would be far better exposure metering. It's very accurate and delivers repeatable results -- something my K20D could never quite achieve. The autofocus is noticeably faster, particularly on moving objects. That's also a huge plus for me. And the increased frame rate is a big help for a lot of what I shoot: moving vehicles, sports, etc. With that comes faster write speed, which cuts down on waiting until mr. camera is ready to work. Heck, I can't remember ever having to wait with the K7. With the K20D, when I shot a series of autobracket exposures, I'd stand there waiting for the ready light to come back on. The battery life is much better. Even without the grip you can get around 1000 RAW exposures. I have a grip installed and always shoot with two batteries. I've never come close to exhausting them, even in a long day of continuous shooting. Finally, the build quality is superb. The camera is a little tank.

We have been gathering the excess snow into piles (at end of driveways, in cul-de-sacs, in parking lots, along the streets, etc.) and it will be convenient to load it for shipment as you suggest.

My conscience is really starting to get to me when I stop to consider just how many AAs I have thrown out over the years. I do have rechargeables, but never can seem to find the charger when I need it! Any feedback on the video capabilities? The video capability is nice, but it requires manual focus. However, that's not too much of a problem when using wide lenses in relatively good light. I bought a hood with diopter adjustment for the live view screen. That makes manual focus fairly easy, even when moving. I think the HD video capability in combination with the excellent lenses would be useful for serious applications. I've been thinking about trying to shoot a demo 30-second commercial with it. For kid's birthdays and stuff like that, my Sony video camera is a better choice. I never use live preview mode and rarely shoot in live view, so I can't offer any input there. I have used live view occasionally for framing in situations where I couldn't get to the viewfinder, and I found it useful. But I prefocused.

Re: A K7D for Fairygirl (Was Re: Fairygirl is in the house!)
Hi Tanya, To add to Paul's excellent review of the K-7... I've had one for the last 6 months and run up 2,750+ exposures. The size is a bit more compact than the K-20, but still bigger than the *ist DS. The user interface is superb, no more digging thru menus. It's all on the back. It is a truely modern and up-to-date use of the lcd screen to convey info. Autofocus seems faster and is really fast silent with the new internal lens drives. Battery life has changed. The K20 said I'm 1/2 full, no wait, I'm DEAD! The K-7 posts 2/3rds full and keeps shooting until I'm back home for a recharge. And a spare battery cost me US$10, much cheaper than the K20 or K10. I've tried the video here and there. Get a fast card focusing is a user job. :-( Nice to hear from you again. Seems like wedding and kid photos were a good source of income for you. And your kid photos were really good, so I hope you continue. Regards, Bob S.

Just have to add my voice to Bob's and Paul's. I have two K-7. 6200 exposures combined. Excellent performers, and endures the weather at least as well as advertised. For AF in LiveView or video, you have three options. The first is traditional SLR AF, which implies that when you hit the AF button, the mirror pops down, does the AF, and pops up again to return you to LiveView. Naturally this doesn't work while shooting video. The other AF modes are tech from compact cams. One mode is called contrast, the other is face-recognition. Both are excruciatingly slow. In my experience, the light metering and AF speed for ordinary SLR operation is the hitherto best in any camera from Pentax.

GESO - 21mm, 70mm and 10-17mm examples.
A few days ago someone had asked for examples of the DA 21mm and I was reminded that I never got around to posting these shots from the 2009 Worldwide Photowalk. With a couple of feet a snow on the ground and record low temperatures, it was a pleasure to look at these photos from last summer. Most of the photos were shot with the DA 21. A few were shot with the 70 and 10-17. All of the metadata is available if you choose to display it.
