On 12/12/07, Boris Liberman, discombobulated, unleashed: In fact, I think K10D with its 3 fps seems to be right on target for me - not too fast, not too slow. On my camera there is 'H' and 'L' for the continuous shooting speeds. The user defines what rate H (high) is and what L (low) is. I have it set at 3fps (L) and 8fps (H). -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=|http://www.cottysnaps.com _ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: PESO - Bowlers
On 11/12/07, Boris Liberman, discombobulated, unleashed: So, Cotty, sir, you've now joined Godders here in the Panny world... Yes but not sure for how long. It's a fabulous little (!) camera but I have two issues with it - the viewfinder and frame rate. It is painfully slow to me, although this really shouldn't matter as I wanted a camera that wasn't fast - eg I wanted to concentrate on the so-called decisive moment, rather than ratatatatatat my pics. I can do that at 8fps with my big Canon (as the bishop said to the actress). But the viewfinder is really not up to manual focussing. For what it is, it's a superb piece of kit and as it only cost me a couple of hundred quid at the end of the day, I'll probably hang onto it. The flash is a miracle of design, and ergonomically it's great to use. But I probably want it to be something else - something that it isn't. Meanwhile, I'm searching for my next acquisition ;-) -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=|http://www.cottysnaps.com _ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Yep, I think I can still picture a splash of horror on my face when I held 1DMk2 of Frantisek and took a picture of my brother. Instead of one I took how many - at least 5 in a machine gun manner. In fact, I think K10D with its 3 fps seems to be right on target for me - not too fast, not too slow. But I thought L1 was more like an AF Leica-like kinda beast. But Cotty, given the size of a sensor and DOF of 20 mm lens - perhaps you could zone focus manually - you know - preset it to certain distance given the aperture setting and just walk away happily snapping around...
