I have just acquired a new addition to my herd of rescue dogs A 1 year old Pit bull terrier, American Eskimo mix, brindle bitch named Sakoda. Father was Kody, mother was Sadie, hence the name Sakoda. 19.2 lbs of terror. Looks like a large Chihuahua. Has a Pitt's feeling of superiority. Will go at it (play) with any dog of any size, even if she has to climb up on their shoulders to get a good grip on their neck. I have a great photo of her intimidating one of her playmates, a Corgie, by jumping over it from one side to the other. I'll put it on my gallery in a few minutes. Look for Introducing Sakoda. gallery.me.com/jomac#100440bgcolor=blackview=mosaicsel=0 Anyways, I shot 100+ great action shots of all my dogs with the K-7 at the dog park for about 45 minutes before I felt a need to chimp. What I saw was that nasty notification telling me I had left my 8 gig SD card plugged in to the computer. Pulled my 4 gig spare out of the battery grip and punched it in, but the verve was lost. After a few shots of wimpy dog action I packed it in and went home, dejected and angry with myself. It was one of the few days with sunlight we've had since last summer (it seems) so I was using a good ƒ8 and 1/1000 or better at ISO 200. Usually I'm at ƒ5.6 with 1/320 @ ISO 800. But I'm of an age that it might take 2 or 3 trips between the car and the house before I've gotten everything I meant to take with me. Even then there is a 50% chance at least one item won't be remembered until I'm down the road a bit. I've learned to not give a darn by that point, as I may get it right tomorrow.

Re: Noise with K7
William Robb Fair enough. I've never bothered to care enough to want to find out, but the consensus on ForumsNeurotica is that the K7 is a small step backwards in noise levels, and this seems to be one of those critically important things to handwring about over there. I'm just regurgitating what I've read on the forum. That's my experience too. The K-7 I used for a while is at least 1/2 stop worse than my K20D about noise. Guilty is the 4-channel readout, I suppose.

Re: GESO slideshow - noba
Cotty wrote: On 15/6/10, Derby Chang, discombobulated, unleashed: I wrote a little love letter to Sydney http://members.iinet.net.au/~derbyc/10/10_06/10_06_bathurst/01.htm Very nice Derbs. That's a lot of shots. May i make a suggestion to anyone doing a slideshow with music that effectively locks in the viewer to the presentation? Rather than set a simple time limit on each pic of (say) 3 seconds and go for quantity - start from a different perspective. By this I mean, cull the shots and show the best ones, but let them breathe - and do the mixes (dissolves) manually. This takes a long time to do but the rewards can be greater. So for Derby's slideshow, I would have started with less music length - 3 to 4 minutes max. In that time we can get in maybe 10 or 12 shots a minute instead of 20! Then you have to 'feel' the transition points rather than set a numerical value. You do this by watching the edit in real time (1X speed) and 'feel' the transition coming and think about what you want to see next. For a presentation such as this, each picture arguably has a natural length to view but they are not all the same. It's not something I can easily explain - but it comes from the heart - knowing how long is just right. For some pics, 3 seconds is okay, but for most it's too short. Legs need time :-) When I look for a point to mix from one shot to another, the mix duration becomes a factor. A one second mix means that the half-way point is half-a second into/out of the mix - so the midpoint is the point I aim at imagining as I watch in real time. I play, have my finger ready over the pause button (JKL - anyone who's ever edited video will be intimate with these keys in any system = J is -1X, K is stop, L is +1X speed) and as you imagine the mix happening, you hit stop in the middle of it. Tricky with 12 and 18 frame mixes, and even more tricky with 4 second mixes, but can be done. Get a feel for it. Easier with still shots - try it with moving video :-) The outgoing and incoming shots sometimes don't mix (dissolve) well - crucial here to look at where the eye is going at the end of the outgoing shot because this is also where the eye will be in the incoming shot. Some shots will jar, so change the choice of incoming. Experience will benefit here. Practice. Nothing wrong with Derby's slideshow, but we strive to improve, right? This could be so much better - if the desire is there to move it on into something stellar. Hope you don't mind the words Derbs. Cheers .02 (frames ;) Wow. Thanks for looking, and thanks Cotty for the thoughtful advice. It is amazing how, given so many choices in AV, it does seem to boil down to a few classic rules.

PESO: Scrub Jay
This is an out of character Scrub Jay. These are the Calif. version of a Blue Jay. They posses the manner of other Jays I've known, (raucous bullies) but don't sport the top knot. This one came screaming onto the fence I believe only to scatter the Finches from their thistle seed feeder. I had the 55~300 mounted on the K10 back up and set it off just as he shook and fluffed up his feathers. Gives him a completely out of character cuddly non Jay look. About 50%(?) crop shot from maybe 30 yards away at 300mm lens setting.

Re: K-7 v LX
2010/6/17 Joseph McAllister pentax...@mac.com: I was thinking of super glueing a plastic non-conductive articulated hot-shoe to the rear of an iPad for only a couple hundred more. It would act as a waist level finder, built in field editor, and digital picture frame all at the same time. When it's off the hot-shoe a Super-Clamp with fake hot-shoe would attach it to your tripod or anything nearby. Thinking of what Malcolm wrote: When Shel B used to regularly post here about street photography, I started using a waist level finder, as it was /_less_obvious_/ I was taking photos in the way that raising the camera to your eye is. Also, are there any plans for an iPad nano that I don't know of? =P I would think a standard iPad would somewhat limit your use of wide angles.

tough to photograph due to the fence locations.
Had some attractions down by the river.

In all other respects, I think of the K-7 as a good

the K-7 are about metering and AF. I love the much quieter
shutter.
More noise on the sensor, less from the shutter?

Thinking of what Malcolm wrote: When Shel B used to regularly post here about street photography, I started using a waist level finder, as it was /_less_obvious_/ I was taking photos in the way that raising the camera to your eye is. Also, are there any plans for an iPad nano that I don't know of? =P I would think a standard iPad would somewhat limit your use of wide angles. That's called the iTouch, but it's screen is similar in size to the K-7, and of course, the K-7 doesn't have WiFi which would allow the iPad to be a wireless big screen, and I ask WHY NOT! :-) Joseph McAllister pentax...@mac.com There is no off position to the genius switch.

Re: Peso - Metro-North
thanks Chrstine, P.J. ,Paul and Jack for you comments... Jack, It does look flat... the angle of light, I guess. I kinda like it. P.J.
