The #2 slot works just fine.

doesn't. I was able to press down on remains of that piece so it went

Meanwhile, my 256G SD cards arrived today, so it should be a very rare

Re: Noisy K-3??

2019-06-05 Thread P. J. Alling
It looks pretty noisy, but, you get that kind of result when you highly 
manipulate an image.  It does look like the noise you'd get at 6400 ISO 
or higher on a K-5II when recovering shadows.  The K-3 is supposed to be 
a little worse due to the packing of more pixels into the same real 
estate, but really not that much.

Go down to my comment on it. If you enlarge the image (click on it after 
opening it) the sky and clouds strike me as very noisy for ISO 100. Some of 
that is oversharpening, but even the unsharpened image seems noisy to me.

This level of noise surprises me for ISO 100. Is this characteristic of the K-3 
sensor?

I stayed away from the K-3 because I was concerned about high ISO noise. But 
ISO 100??

I blew the original up on screen by a factor of at least 12, and confess all I

While sky is where I'll most often see noise, even at relatively high ISO (my 
K20 was horrible for that), when I took a look at it under magnification, that 
was pixelation noise rather than sensor noise.

I was worried about noise going from the K-5 to the K-3, and while noise per 
pixel may be higher, noise per area is at least as good, if not better.  It is 
only in the most adverse of conditions that even my K-1 shows significant noise 
advantage over my K-3s.

Granted, I seem to spend most of my time shooting in the most adverse of 
lighting conditions, so for me the K-1 is well worth it.

I suspect that some of the newest aps bodies will outperform the K-3 in raw 
sensor performance, they may even approach the K-1, being a couple of years 
newer.  That being said, a used K-3 is likely your best performance for the 
dollar in the K-mount world.

photos with AR

2019-06-05 Thread Igor PDML-StR



I am not sure if anybody on the list has played/is playing Pokemon Go,
so I would mention its relation to the photography.
One of the features of this game is so-called "Augmented Reality" (AR),
where you can superimpose images of pokemon (that are around you, but 
you cannot see them unless you have the app on your phone) over the "real 
reality" surrounding you. And you can take a photo of such a hybrid view.


Here is an BuzzFeed article where a "real photographer" provides some 
comments about some of the more successful AR photos.

https://www.buzzfeed.com/nianticpokemongo/pokemon-go-users-are-creative-af

I thought some PDMLers might be curious to see these.

Also, since you visit Portland and LA every so often, I wonder if
one of the their local repair shops would be willing to look at it.
I've just found this list of repair shops (US is at the bottom)
that are willing to work on Pentax cameras, and it lists one in Portland 
and two in LA & vicinity:

Has anyone else dealt with this problem and fixed it? I'm not enthused for 
paying $300 or whatever for what a camera repair at precision costs.

A 50 odd shot photo gallery of flowers at a local greenhouse our photo club
attend yesterday. Last flower work i used the K-5 and FA 100 macro so ti
used the D7200 and Tamron 90 yesterday just so it would not get a complex.
Took my lens ball with me just for a few trial special effects shots.

Nice attempts ! What was the equipment used?

I mostly shoot them when not flying - much higher success rate. Shooting 
them flying without AF is really frustrating for me.

Larry,
Just in case:
I wonder if Eric Hendrickson might be able to fix it, even though he
says that he is not working on digital cameras.
Before sending it to Pre-Cession, e-mail Eric to see if he'd be willing to 
look at it.
