Thanks Walt. Seals may help keep moisture out but, sea water has a funny habit of finding a way in ruining stuff. Cheers, Dave On Jan 7, 2008 11:59 PM, Walter Hamler [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Great stuff! I have to agree with you, I don't have THAT much faith in the seals, especially in salt

The thing about living on the coast is it's surprisingly difficult to find interesting foreground elements to make a sunset interesting. Naked babe on the beach usually does it for me. Bob -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to

Dave, So you've got to tell us. Did the K10D take a licking and keep on ticking? The voightlander shot looks pretty good. I like the footprints in the foreground. I need to calibrate the monitor (can I do that on a laptop?) for the sunset shot. The coral(?) is a big dark blob with only a hint of

That seems to be quite a lot of faith. I don't think I'd risk a personal camera that way. On the other hand if I were shooting for a major publication, hell they'd be paying for me and the camera. Unless that guy is working for UPI or National Geographic he's taking pictures the way my

Well I have faith in the weather sealing. The issue to me is that this guy is not dealing with weather, he is just walking out in salt water. Weather sealing is something like rain or wind blowing dust and such. I won't be surprised if he is in the market for a new camera. Just the other day
