Re: K3 card failure

[Bob Sullivan]

Darren,
I'm using the original firmware for the K-3.  Haven't upgraded anything yet.
But will directly as the new 1.4X arrives tomorrow.
And John,
I've never filled card #2, but doesn't that describe Rob's original complaint.
He filled card #1, replaced it, and it didn't transition back when
card #2 filled.

Re: K3 card failure

[Bob Sullivan]

So I'm trying this again from gmail, hopefully it will be in Plain text mode.
I experienced some unexpected card slot behavior in San Diego.
I filled the 1st card and automatically moved to #2.
Then I took #1 card out and downloaded it to the laptop.
Card #2 took over, but when I replaced card #1, it stayed on #2.
I had to fiddle with the menu settings to get it back to #1.
I suspect the software transitions from #1 to #2, but has trouble
going back to #1 automagically.

Re: Question: Adobe Creative Cloud

[Bob Sullivan]

Adobe doesn't have my confidence either.
Anybody who wants to get in my machine every time I sign on is not my friend.
And, there is a new version of the PDF reader they want to download every time.
I believe that is bullshit.

Re: OT: cameras for spies?

[Bob Sullivan]

Christine,
The DA15/4 on the K-3 wouldn't be to bad.
Not much focus would be needed and the snaps could be discrete.
I will tell you from experience photographing fast food drive-thru menu boards,
the post processing is a pain in the a--.  Get the mystery shoppers to do it.
Have them fill out forms with the pricing, one per store.

Re: Moon you again

[Bob Sullivan]

Rick, Bruce, and Larry,

Thanks for the comments.
Rick & Bruce, here's a cropped version only 720 pixels tall.
http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=1765

Larry, here's more from the series taken a bit later.
+ 2 min.
http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=1762&size=lg
+15 min.
http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=1763&size=lg
+18 min.
http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=1764&size=lg
and the moon is gone!

Larry you'd be proud of me.
I took 120 shots in 1/2 hour,
then spent an hour editing to only show you one.
Thankfully it wasn't film...

Re: DxO recommends lenses for the K-3

[Bob Sullivan]

Bruce,

As you're talking about the sharpness of this combination,
here's a sample.

It's today's sunset with the K-3 and DA55/1.4
http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=17647954

and a 100% crop from the middle of the image.
http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=17647955

K-3 continues to amaze with 6000x4000 pixel images.

Thanks Ken, and it is a bit static.  The DA55/1.4 is a nifty lens,
but I was worried about how much sun I could handle.
Thanks Don, I'll be back in the freezer for Dan's photos from Hawaii.
He's the inspiration for our trip to San Diego in the midst of winter.

Rick,
Very nice.  A man made mound or naturally occurring?
The surroundings look so flat.

Re: What would you do (stay with Pentax, or...)

The FA35/2 comes around often.  It was available at B&H recently,
but I like the 31 Limited so much that I can never bring myself to buy it.
The one I'm proud of is the F28/2.8.  Not many of those around and very small.

Re: PESO - Paris Window Shopping

[Bob Sullivan]

Ann,
An old TV series called 'The A Team' featured an ensemble cast including
a former Chicago bouncer - a big bald black man who wore lots of gold chains.
When the series was over, he bought a property in Lake Forest, IL and
cut down 40+
mature oaks because they spoiled the view.

Never met a Pentax lens that I didn't need.
Moved to a new house last month and the spare

The 24, 30, and 28's are good substitutes for the 31mm.

Re: What would you do (stay with Pentax, or...)

No, the FA31 is an older screw drive AF lens and you don't have the
modern convenience of touching-up the focus.
I've pretty much lived on the AF results as is.

I really like the 31.
It's fast and kind of small and sharp.
You'll not regret owning one.

Re: Regarding the assessment of raw image technical qualities (i.e. correct exposure, focus, sharpness, etc.)

[Bob Sullivan]

Stop taking so many pictures of the same scene.
Use some higher speed ISO settings.
We have no knowledge of the image processors you're using.

You've 'painted yourself into a corner' and won't enjoy photography
until you free yourself of all your restrictions.  Try things, it's free!
