Re: Protection glass / filters

Digital sensors are much more prone to recording reflections bouncing off a cheap filter than film. I learned this first hand a couple years back when I purchased the cheapest filters I could "for protection" and found an ugly ghosting effect on any white highlights taken in bright sun. I switche

Re: *istD lens compatibility

Dont forget I have to set a custom fuction to allow shutter release with lens on any other setting than A (also for A and later lenses set to any other than 'A' aperture ring). Use M mode only !! Press green button and voila :) Of course matrix metering doesn't work and reverts to CW. Spot works f

Re: Storm (in a glass?) on the Hoya-Pentax merge

More... from another report today... Hoya head Hiroshi Suzuki told reporters at that time that the optical glass maker is mainly interested in strengthening its medical-related operations with Pentax. But Suzuki said Hoya is unlikely to receive many benefits from Pentax's digital camera division.

Re: *istD lens compatibility

Following on from Boris' post, if it hasn't been done already, you need to update the firmware to the latest rev for the *ist D. First check what firmware version it's running: With the power off, hold down the Menu button and keep holding it when you turn on the power. The firmware revision

It sure looks totally different. More like a some kind of club annual meeting. I had the same unpleasant sensation like you described below. I came to look at the cars and bikes (or at least I thought I did) while they invited me to get impressed and spend money. The first half of the gallery i

Re: Storm (in a glass?) on the Hoya-Pentax merge

Synopsis: Pentax decided to pull out. Hoya ups the bid. Pentax President resigns, outside analysts say this a good move for Hoya, it will allow them to fully dismember Pentax when it's acquired. This is contraindicated by statement that Pentax's board is expected to reject new offer. Stocks

Re: *istD lens compatibility

Ignore me. I panic so easily when it comes to matters of technology. I went to the Pentax site and found the firmware update page. I guess it can wait until I get a puter - at least I know it's available. thanks anyway! cheers, frank On 4/9/07, frank theriault <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Oka

Re: *istD lens compatibility

Frank, there is a custom function in the camera menu that enables shutter to be released with non-A aperture setting on the lens. Then set camera to Manual mode. Then the green button trick would work. Boris frank theriault wrote: > Okay, guys, don't hit me over the head, I know this has been d
