Well JAck old chum, now that you accidentally posted this to the 
list... I'll throw it out to the gang..


Gang -
Jack says that what I'm pointing to with an arrow on the closeup of his 
canary is a leg band...
I have put it next to a closeup of my yellow bird to compare front 
three "toes" -  I kinda see
why the "finger" I'm pointint to with the arrow in his could bee seen 
as a band, but as it

is grasping the branch I can't see how it is possible...

What do you see?   This all started because Jack mentioned being 
disappointed that his bird had a leg band

and since I couldn't see one I was aiming to reassure...

https://annsan.smugmug.com/Other/Stuff-to-show-PDML-for-various/n-vWHWf/i-pM5brnQ/A

in addition to noting where my arrows are pointing, note the "middle 
finger" - longer in both photos..


This is more fun than the work I should be doing :-)

Good for you! I knew you could do it. 

Don't give up on cutting. With a box cutter and fresh blade and a T-square, 
it's easy. If you can scam a calibrated cutting board it's a no brainer. The 
boards are gridded in inches and you can cut right into them without leaving a 
mark. Miraculous! Ad agencies and publishers replace their cutting boards when 
they're still  good. I garbage picked mine from BBDO.

Paul - the mention of 5x7s came up just as maintenance runs... that is - 
the minimum necessary to keepthe gears oiled..


I'm planning on 13x19 prints epson enhanced matte for my calendar next
year -for me-.. My cutting skills are non existent so whatever I print 
it will be the appropriately sized paper and what I have on the shelf.

Re: Shopping for 64GB SD cards

[Igor PDML-StR]

Larry,

Silver-colored Samsung "pro" seemed to be consistently a reasonable deal 
with a _high quality_ and _speed_ in the past year or so. I haven't looked 
in the past 2 months. (I am more keen on this than on SanDisk lately.)


Here is the current version of it:
http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1181360-REG/samsung_mb_sg64e_am_sdxc_64gb_pro_memory.html

I have the U1 incarnation of it.

I haven't tried this myself, but it's been bookmarked for when I need to 
buy a new one (if that happens soon):

http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1164630-REG/pny_technologies_p_sdx64u395_ge_64gb_elite_sdxc_uhs_1_card.html
THe reviews seem to be very good, and the price is one of the most 
competitive at the moment ($23 until the end of today).

By any chance has anyone shopped for 64GB SD cards in the past week? Are
there any particularly good deals out there?

I'm going to need to pick up a couple more, and if someone else has
already done the work of chasing down the best deals, it could save me a
bit of bother.

Try ExifTool? Or ExifTool GUI.  But it seems odd if the Shutter Count
website can't list it.

For my K-5, Shutter Count is listed under the 'Maker' section in
ExifTool GUI.

back a bit it feels whole to me, but if I look at all closely  it is a bit 
disjointed. I’ll play some with this and a few others in the series…

Re: Canary Leg Band Proven

Wasn't accidental, Ann. 
I didn't mean to indicate that I was disappointed that the bird had a leg band.
That was simply to support my comments that the Canary appeared to be an

The thing with this one is the gap in the middle between the flowers... 
especially since the center is soft focus -- I'd crop the

hell out of it to get the bloom with the bee in a more important position.
Meanwhile, that took me to your page of lots of lovelies  - and of the

I think this is a standout for me.

Re: Fwd: Canary Leg Band Proven

[ann sanfedele]

Well JAck old chum, now that you accidentally posted this to the list... 
I'll throw it out to the gang..


Gang -
Jack says that what I'm pointing to with an arrow on the closeup of his 
canary is a leg band...
I have put it next to a closeup of my yellow bird to compare front three 
"toes" -  I kinda see
why the "finger" I'm pointint to with the arrow in his could bee seen as 
a band, but as it

is grasping the branch I can't see how it is possible...

What do you see?   This all started because Jack mentioned being 
disappointed that his bird had a leg band

and since I couldn't see one I was aiming to reassure...

https://annsan.smugmug.com/Other/Stuff-to-show-PDML-for-various/n-vWHWf/i-pM5brnQ/A

in addition to noting where my arrows are pointing, note the "middle 
finger" - longer in both photos..


This is more fun than the work I should be doing :-)

Try ExifTool? Or ExifTool GUI.  But it seems odd if the Shutter Count
website can't list it.

For my K-5, Shutter Count is listed under the 'Maker' section in
ExifTool GUI.

You wouldn't see it unless the lens was stopped down. Maybe not even
then if it gets too dark in the viewfinder.

Best way to find out is to take a picture while you have it on that film 
body.

I tested the new 24/70/2.8 wide open against a brick wall just to make sure it 
had no glaring faults. I used the K3 and was amazed at the edge and corner 
sharpness. Then it struck me: I'm not seeing the edges. I won't know how good 
it really is until the K1 arrives.

 First thing I did was stick the 18-55 on both the LX and Z1-p. Both
 seemed to
 show vignetting in the viewfinder below about 24mm.  Allowing for
 viewfinder
 discrepancy, I would expect vignetting on film to begin somewhere
 between 24 and
 30mm - probably closer to the former.

Re: Some sort of macro adapter

[John]

It looks like it mounts to the PK bayonet so you can attach a 58mm 
filter to that end.


You would still need a camera adapter to mount the lens.

3 in 1 Macro Lens Reverse Adapter PK to 58mm UV Filter for Pentax Camera

Feature:

We use the reverse ring macro shot, because the lens is in turn shot (UV
lens mounted on the camera terminated,
the original camera lens mount on the outside end of filming), so the
lens is easy to get into the dust, water, and insecurity,
it also has been we do not like to use the reverse ring reason, and this

Suitable for with all 58mm filter diameter Pentax lens.

To the best of my knowledge, using a drone in National Parks requires

didn't include any information on how, if or when he acquired
permission.



As Jostein pointed out, despite regulations and common sense (which isn't
that common it appears) idiots hell bent on owning one will obtain one.

Photographers using new technology sensibly is all it requires, but
legislation is a catch all. I would imagine that your speaker's images have
enhanced the reputation of said National Park.

In the example I described, the idiot using a drone, chose to do so on a
narrow strip of land designated as a footpath on a windy day, between a
field of horses one side, and a reservoir with pylons alongside the other.
How he only lost it in the reservoir was a mystery.

Aside: The last meeting I attended was a competition. Within a few images it
was clear the judge had an eyesight issue, as he dismissed an excellent
capture of an otter eating as a model otter staged near a stream, and a
shapely girl in the background of another as a man! From there on in, the
evening wasn't about the images, but what he saw them as. Hardly the quality
of evening you're used to.

Malcolm



They're not all of that caliber.

The club has a quarterly print competition where you can submit two B
prints and two color prints. Usually some well known local photographer
is invited to be the judge.

It's fun to watch them go through the prints to see at what point the
"judge" finally realize they can't give every entry a '9' (out of 10
possible).

Since the prints are not randomized before displaying them to the
"judge", it's best to get to the meeting early when there's a print
competition, so yours can be in the first dozen or so shown.

Peso-South Butte Poppies

[Jack Davis]

This was a past Spring, but what with this fast approaching Spring, shouldn't 
be long.
Possibly shown in the past.(?)

LX w/A 20mm. Too lazy to look up the film.

C Appreciated.

Has anyone tried other DA lenses?


First thing I did was stick the 18-55 on both the LX and Z1-p.  Both seemed to
show vignetting in the viewfinder below about 24mm.  Allowing for viewfinder
discrepancy, I would expect vignetting on film to begin somewhere between 24 and
30mm - probably closer to the former.

 To get an accurate idea, you would need to either adapt a lens to 
something like a Sony A7, ot put some film in your Z1p (I presume it 
allows aperture control from the body) and shoot some pictures. The size 
of the image circle changes as the lens is stopped down, so a lens that 
is no good wide open may be OK stopped down a bit (or a lot).

No photos, but I just tried the DA 35mm macro on an LX, and there is
some visible vignetting, but no complete black corners.

Of course the hood should NOT be fully extended, if you do
that the corners DO get blackened out. 

I also noticed again how nice and smooth the focussing with the K 1.2 50mm 
that was on there to start with really is :)

No fair, changing genders like that.  You're only supposed to test one parameter

First thing I did was stick the 18-55 on both the LX and Z1-p.  Both seemed to
show vignetting in the viewfinder below about 24mm.  Allowing for viewfinder
discrepancy, I would expect vignetting on film to begin somewhere between 24 and
30mm - probably closer to the former.

To the best of my knowledge, using a drone in National Parks requires
written permission from the park superintendent. His presentation

permission.


He probably asked.



He did acknowledge the general FAA regulation that drones cannot be
operated beyond line of sight of the operator, but I couldn't determine
if that acknowledgement included a "wink, wink, nudge, nudge" or not.

My reservations regarding drones is entirely concerning irresponsible
operators. There have already been instances where careless operators
have injured bystanders on the ground. Luckily, no fatalities.


Without wanting to get political, you have a bigger worry with firearms 
in your country. Worry about real problems.



But, I think it's only a matter of time before some idiot flies one
into the path of a commercial aircraft & causes a crash.


This is hysteria at it's finest. A goose getting sucked into an engine 
will do more damage than a drone, even an S1000 series.


As Jostein pointed out, despite regulations and common sense (which isn't
that common it appears) idiots hell bent on owning one will obtain one.


This can be said of many things, both benign and dangerous.


Photographers using new technology sensibly is all it requires, but
legislation is a catch all. I would imagine that your speaker's images have

How he only lost it in the reservoir was a mystery.

evening wasn't about the images, but what he saw them as. Hardly the quality
of evening you're used to.

Anyway, that goes onto the back of the lens, and then you can mount a UV 
filter and /or a lens cap to protect the rear of the lens (the front of 
the lens will be attached to the lens by a reverse adapter.


At least I think that's what it does. For 12 bucks you should buy one

Description
　

3 in 1 Macro Lens Reverse Adapter PK to 58mm UV Filter for Pentax Camera

Feature:

We use the reverse ring macro shot, because the lens is in turn shot (UV
lens mounted on the camera terminated,
the original camera lens mount on the outside end of filming), so the
lens is easy to get into the dust, water, and insecurity,
it also has been we do not like to use the reverse ring reason, and this
is now the reverse ring protection interface
designed specifically for these issues is currently the only one
transfer environmentally mouth,
mounted on the lens can be re-installed a 58mm UV/MC UV/CPL ND Filter
and 58mm lens cap, play a protective role of the lens.
　

Suitable for with all 58mm filter diameter Pentax lens.

A lens cap with the centre removed and a glued on filter to protect the rear 
element of the reversed lens from grit. Neat idea. Sounds like a good DIY too.

I need someone to give a convincing discount, preferably with one of the new
lenses. I've thought long and hard about part exchanging either the K-3 or
the K-3ii to help with the purchase and I'm not prepared to do it. I have a
set up that works for me, and it's like the film days again where I had an
LX and an MX in the camera bag and all was well. The K-1 body is a much
better price than I had hoped; it's the reassuring heavy and expensive
lenses that I need to go with them that poses the issue. I'd end up using
the camera in crop mode for some time to come with the current lenses in my
bag, which rather defeats the point of owning a 36MP camera.
