Re: Fuji Super HG 1600?
Very true...but the new Superia 1600 is an excellent film. From the results Ive had, I would rather shoot this, than Superia 800 underexposed a stop and processed accordingly. Contrast is good, Color is great, and the Grain is superb! Scott --- Bill Owens [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I can't speak from experience, but I've heard that Superia 800 shot at 1600 and processed normally is better than straight HG1600. Only a 1 stop underexposure. Just don't underexpose more than that.

Hello all... Has anyone out there used Fuji Super HG 1600? It looks like the fastest color print film out there, but also doesn't appear to be commonly available: none of my usual stores here in Portland stock it and BH has an inconsistent supply. Would it be just as easy to push Superia 800? Thanks, Tim - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.

Press Passes
I live in the Salt Lake City area and am going to school in Logan (about an hour or so from SLC). As a student with a passion in Photography, (and although this idea might be too late) I would appreciate any information on how to get a press pass so that I might be able to take pictures at the olympics, or for that matter, any future major sporting events or concerts etc... Any help would be greatly appreciated Scott Send FREE Valentine eCards with Yahoo! Greetings! http://greetings.yahoo.com - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.

Pentax Focusing Screens
Are the Pentax focusing screens interchangable between bodies...for example, can I put a MX/LX focusing screen in an MZ-S? What about a PZ-1p? Also, What screens are available for the MZ-S, and where can I get info on them? Thanks, Scott __ Terrorist Attacks on U.S. - How can you help?

Re: Pentax - [small] size matters?
I have fairly average sized hands (maybe a bit on the smaller side) and the feel of the early M/ZX bodies (the 50 and the 10) were good, although a little small and fairly plasticky. They were better feeling than the C the N or the M** equivilant. With the FG battery pack on my ZX-50 the feel is far better. I handled an MZ-S for the first time yesterday. It feels far more secure, solid, and comfortable then my ZX-50. I imagine that the problem of the size issue could be solved by adding the BG-10 Battery pack to the MZ-S. For the average wedding shoot shaving 10 or 12 oz off the weight of the body wont make much of a difference in the overall weight factor. However, for the outdoor shooter who uses say a 28-70 2.8 and a 70/80-200 2.8 (OR even amateur zoom lenses like the new 24-90 and a 70-300) saving a pound of weight in your pack can be a good thing. Plus the battery pack (although adding weight) also adds controls for vertical functionality. Just my thoughts though. Scott Get email alerts NEW webcam video instant messaging with Yahoo!

MZ-S Flash capabilities
Ive read Pentax promotional literature that says that the MZ-S has a flash that can synch up to 1/6000th of a second with built in flash or accessory units (360FGZ), but has a standard flash synch of 1/180th of a second. Can anyone shed some light on this? Scott __ Do You Yahoo!? Get email alerts NEW webcam video instant messaging with Yahoo!
