Re: K20D & AF calibration data

So far, the three DA lenses i have. The 50,16-45 and 50-200. BUT It seems an issue with more close up subjects. If i am shooting something with some bulk or size to it, all seems fine. I cannot get out my door at the moment, so i'll retest all three this morning, however i thinl its going back,

Re: Why i don't shoot weddings.

Hehe... That's always my ultimatum too. "I can shoot if you promise I'm not the only one you rely on". Works wonders to set people's expectations. :-) Jostein 2008/3/8, DagT <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > The Yashica-Mat camera is great for that use as it is almost > completely quiet. One of the very few

Re: Pentax Gallery Voting

I'm totally with you, Bruce. I have posted here before on how the voting page is programmed, and this change seems to be addressing one of my main criticisms; the total size of the webpage. Because of the way it is programmed, the page has to pre-load all the full-gallery-size images at first call.
