Re: Photos from space, K10D

Jostein 2008/7/15 James [EMAIL PROTECTED]: While browsing, I discovered these pics taken with a K10D from a balloon up to 20 miles up wwwDOTflickrDOTcom/photos/arena5/sets/72157606119049987/detail/ There is an explation on pentaxforums of how it was done. Is amazing what the K10D will stand up to.

Yeah, but that was a Minolta . . . William Robb [EMAIL PROTECTED] 7/16/2008 12:46 AM - Original Message - From: Steve Desjardins Subject: Re: Photos from space, K10D I like the impact resistant box.

Except not a repair, more of a reasurrance check. Apparently, at the Moose Jaw Air Force base, they have guys who jump out of perfectly good airplanes. one day, one of them decided to take a Minolta Maxxum 7000 with him on his jump. Anyway, the wost happened, and the camera fell free when the parachute opened. The fellow was able to follow it to the ground, and this is the camera that I talk about. Minolta cleaned the dirt off of it as a gratuity (it had hit a freshly plowed wheat field), replaced a broken gear under warranty and sent it back to us. Woops, thunder storm. Gotta go.

They should take it up to about 25k feet with no impact case and drop it without a chute and see what happens. http://photo.net/leica-rangefinders-forum/00HnrI ;) -- Scott Loveless New Cumberland, Pennsylvania, USA http://www.twosixteen.com/fivetoedsloth/ -- 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: Photos from space, K10D
I like the impact resistant box. I wonder how it would hold up meeting the dirt at terminal velocity.
