Re: The Camera Store reviews the K-P

I think I agree with PJ. I took one look at the specs of the KP and knew it wasn't for me. In my case size and weight was the issue. A couple of years ago I bought am Olympus E-M10 for a specific purpose - a compact & lightweight camera for travel that didn't lose much (if anything) to my K-5.

Pixel Shift: Any advantage to NOT using motion correction?

I've been looking around to see what is lost when pixel shift is set to Motion correction mode and haven't found any information about it. It seems that by giving you the option to select between enabling motion correction or not, there must be some situation when non-corrected mode is better,

Re: The Camera Store reviews the K-P

Henk said: "You can't have one camera for all purposes." This is true, but most people have to try, at some point in their life. For me, the K-3 II with an arsenal of lenses, mostly old and older, will be my main kit. But I never thought I would really like a small camera the way I like the Sony

Re: OT: BBC News: Night-time in America's small towns

I agree with Bob and Stan, and I’d only add some of the photos look very much like what might be found in urban areas at night. Maybe the photos aren’t small town enough :-). I do think the use of light and shadow is very nice in these photos—well executed. Cheers, Christine > On Mar 11,

Re: OT: BBC News: Night-time in America's small towns

Thanks for the comments Bob. You expressed much of what I was feeling when I saw these photos, but with much more targeted critique than I could have done. My initial thought was that this collection were nice enough photos, and that every one was familiar to me. I think some are familiar

Re: The Camera Store reviews the K-P

I like the design of the KP. The small form factor, and the higher ISO made me almost decide to pre-order the KP to upgrade from my K-5. For use in the theatre, low light performance is important to me. But the price gap of the KP with K-1 is not that great, so I bought the K-1 instead. But now

Re: Anyone ever turned a room into a camera obscura?

We had one in a previous incarnation of my department. The present building is, sadly, not suitable. If there are physics labs in the Uni, they should have proper blackout facilities for light experiments. Even the LEDs on alarm sensors will spoil the effect. Hopefully, one of the rooms will
