K10/100D focus test chart
I stumbled upon a test chart for k10/100D. There is nothing special about the test chart itself as it is a classic way of measuring the focus point and DOF etc. But this one has Pentax log on it, making it look like made by Pentax :-). I do not think Pentax made this, but it appears that you can just print this and assemble a scale box which might be handy for those interested in, or too clumsy or lazy to make these things. There is another guy who made not only a similar chart but a software to produce a graphic display of where the focus point is. Anyway, here are the templates (might take a while to download); For K100D: http://www.geocities.jp/pen_pen_pentax/focus/focustest100.pdf For K10D: http://www.geocities.jp/pen_pen_pentax/focus/focustest.pdf I have not examined this in detail on how to use it, i.e., if there is any set distance to place this etc. Ken -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net

Hi Walt, Yeah, I realized that their (Yahoo!) server is busy or no service. It's midnight there and for some reason, geocity server there is often not available. What you are seeing is a message, saying try later :-). When it opens, it is a PDF which is a precise drawing to scale which you can cut (after printing) and assemble. If you really want to see it, you might try it tonight. I could open it last night but not this morning.

K10/100D focus test chart
I printed it out, cut it out, and assembled. My daughter, a kindergarten teacher, asked me what I was doing. I replied that I was working on Pentax Paper Doll cutouts. So, she proceeds to show me Canon Paper doll cutouts on the web! But these really were paper dolls. BTW, the focus checker worked as advertised and my K10 is perfect with both the 18~55 and the 50~200, Didn't test the FE Zoom ...what't would be the point! :-) Walt -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
