Re: Any authorized Pentax repair people out there?
I bought one about two years ago from Pentax USA in Colorado. I called the service department number on the web site and talked to the lady at the parts desk directly, no problem. I think it was relatively inexpensive, about 7-8 dollars or so. - Original Message - From: Rick Womer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Tuesday, December 6, 2005 1:23 pm Subject: Any authorized Pentax repair people out there? > I'd like to replace the bottom plate on my PZ-1p; the > first epoxy job to fix the infamous crack didn't hold, > and the second one is lousy. > > Pentax will only supply the part to Authorized Repair > Persons, and I don't fancy parting with the camera for > 3 weeks for a job that would take me 5 minutes. > > Sooois anyone out there able to order the part for > me? > > Rick > > > > > __ > Yahoo!

Re: Pentax Remote Assistant and the *ist DS (2.00)
I seem to recall that the default file save format was camera-raw and couldn't be changed, for one thing. There might be others as well. Also, the documentation for use with cameras other than the D is broken and Pentax wouldn't approve PRA's use on the other cameras until that is fixed. - Original Message - From: Godfrey DiGiorgi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Monday, December 5, 2005 11:59 am Subject: Re: Pentax Remote Assistant and the *ist DS (2.00) > That's what I'm curious about too.

Re: Pentax Remote Assistant and the *ist DS (2.00)
RA was released for D only and as far as I know has never been revised for 100% proper operation with DS, DS2 or DL. I'm still waiting patiently . . . - Original Message - From: Fred <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Monday, December 5, 2005 9:34 am Subject: Pentax Remote Assistant and the *ist DS (2.00) > I've read some reports that Pentax Remote Assistant works (to a > somewhatlimited extent) with the DS (if it has firmware V.2.00). > Just FYI (or > maybe FYC = for your curiosity). > > Fred > > >

Re: *ist-DS english manual
On page 179, with the custom setting for "using aperture ring" set to "permitted" and the camera in manual mode, it states that when depth of field is checked (Preview), AE metering is switched on. Is this not what happens when the green button on the *ist-D is depressed? - Original Message - From: John Francis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Tuesday, November 16, 2004 12:44 pm Subject: Re: *ist-DS english manual > Alin Flaider mused: > > > > [. . . .] > > With regard to aperture-set-from-the-lens implementation: in > manual> mode one can only check out the difference from metered > exposure by > > pressing the DOF lever; there is no provision for automatic > setting> of the speed value like the *ist d does.

Thanks, I didn't previously see an explanation that the preview lever on *istDs works as the green button on the *istD. - Original Message - From: Dario Bonazza <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Friday, October 22, 2004 1:41 pm Subject: Re: PhotoPlus Expo in NYC > The *ist Ds works with M/K/M42 lenses like the *istD, since > exposure meter > works when you stop down the lens with preview lever (instead of green > button). > > Dario > > - Original Message - > From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Friday, October 22, 2004 3:39 PM > Subject: PhotoPlus Expo in NYC > > > > Any list member been to the NYC show yet?

PhotoPlus Expo in NYC
Any list member been to the NYC show yet? I intend to go tomorrow to check out the *istDs, among other things. I'll see if they have any information about operation with M/K/M42 lenses there.
