RE: OT - Cycle Mounts - Request
Steve Cottrell wrote: Throwing this open to the list as there are plenty of cycle-holics on here. Anyone know of any decent clamp-on specially-shaped mounts for GoPro (or similar) cameras for attaching to expensive and sensitive aerodynamically contoured carbon fibre cycle frames? GoPro mounts are ten-a-penny but when you come to try and attach them to high-end racing bikes, not only do their riders get very skittish about clamping onto irregular shaped carbon fiber, but actually it's impossible to do quickly and easily. If I had to design it and build it myself, I know exactly what I need, but perhaps someone knows of a good starting point? Any pointers to existing web pages or images gratefully appreciated. I recently filmed an Olympic cyclist but had very little time. With my existing kit I could have done it, but not in the few minutes I had available. Woulda taken me 15 or 20 to set up. I need it to be 1 or 2 minutes! No doubt you have other similar replies, but I've used a short length of inner tube (very useful old inner tubes). Wrap once around the tube and a second time, this time fitting in a pencil or biro piece or equivalent. You can then nip some cable ties up, and when it comes to removing it, you can slide out the sandwiched packing part to give you room to cut the cable ties, without any damage to whatever shape the tube is. I did this once with mine, no evidence of anything ever being fitted.

Wow, nothing like the old Lionel stuff that I remember from when I was a kid. Much more detailed and very much made to look as real as possible. Also, very expensive. $50-$80 for a boxcar. Engine prices were in the Hundreds of dollars. That would add up pretty quickly. Of course, O is pretty big, so you wouldn't need much.

The table is big enough to accommodate a small circle of train track. Rather than leave such an important task to the last minute, I decided to test things out this weekend. (Not the tree. Just the train.) Killing two birds with one stone, I shot a little video with my iPhone and tried out the video editing features in Photoshop CC for the first time. Here are the results. http://georgesinos.com/blog/2013/10/27/the-christmas-train I was surprised at how quickly I figured out the video editor in Photoshop CC. It was (Unlike most things in PS) quite straight forward. I've used a couple of other video editors in the past and they have many more features. But for slapping together a quick video or slide show, this looks like it will do everything I need. gs George Sinos www.GeorgesPhotos.net www.GeorgeSinos.com -- 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. --- This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!

Yes, the first shot works well with the cars wrapping around the bend and the fall colors complementing the red Ferrari. I believe it's a F355 GTS, probably about 2007 vintage.

Re: Red Flash
HI Ken. What makes you think an XK140 rather than a 120? The wheels lead me to believe it's a 120.

Re:Is the A* 135mm f1.8 on your Bucket List?
OOPS let me see if I can clear this up. I mis-rememered. It was late it was dark I did not have lens in front of me. OK I'm old. My 135mm f1.8 is indeed the Spiratone. I thought I had owned the 85mm but it was the 135. But I was sure when I was hunting up this lens I saw a JC Penny Label. And I did, it was on a 28-80 3.5 tele . I also found my 90-230 Sears tele. The JC Penny is a K- mount the other two are the old 42. Using various adapters I tested these on K-01 and Oly 4/3s. I also tested some Canon tread mount lenses from a rangefinder camera with bad results - they only focus close-up nothing beyond a few inches. Photos when I get time.

Re: PESO - (and VESO) The Christmas Train
Yes, you're right. Lionel track was O gauge but all the early Lionel rolling stock, including locos, were under-scale, closer to S than O. I was confusing gauge scale. I still have quite a bit of it and everything is small compared to my stock of European origin. More recent Lionel trains are both O gauge O scale 1:48. I have a Texas Special A-B Diesel loco which is full O scale. European O is a little bigger 1:43.5. BTW, according to what I read on the Web, American Flyer never made S gauge stuff. The plot thickens! I might just be tempted to dust everything off, put down a few meters of track take some side-by-side snaps.

Alan - the train in this photo is HO scale, roughly half the size of O. When I was in the hobby shop buying the circle of track for these trains I saw some modern O. Wow, nothing like the old Lionel stuff that I remember from when I was a kid. Much more detailed and very much made to look as real as possible. Also, very expensive. $50-$80 for a boxcar. Engine prices were in the Hundreds of dollars. That would add up pretty quickly. Of course, O is pretty big, so you wouldn't need much.

k-5 in surgery...
I just heard back from CRIS on my K-5 that I sent in with a failing sensor. Despite the LCD cover being obviously scratched and popped off and the dented bottom plate it looks like they are going to fix it all under warranty! This is like the best news I've heard all year and I was so reluctant to send it in. It was my birthday last week, so I guess this is like a hidden surprise present. I'm totally broke at the moment and had no idea how I was going to pay for my K-5 to get fixed. Now I can focus on fixing my 2 16-45s, selling one, fixing my 12-24, and getting my better k-7 body fixed up and I shall soon have a respectable kit once again. Of course its waiting for parts.

Re: Is the A* 135mm f1.8 on your Bucket List?
http://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/2066924 Spiratone samples. I don't know which formula here, but it looks different than the Plura-Coat samples I looked at, so maybe the first one. Bokeh is very interesting. I like it personally but its not bokehlicious by any means. Still, very nice dof even on a crop sensor. http://kiev.ko.slando.ua/obyavlenie/krayne-redkiy-svetosilnyy-soligor-135-mm-1-8-m42-ID6lspJ.html Soligar 135 1.8 info. 15 blades! http://www.pbase.com/pganzel/samigon_135mm_f18_on_maxxum_7d Soligar 1.8 samples. I think the bokeh on the Spiratone is much better. The soligar has hard distracting bokeh. Probably due to the simplified lens formula. So I guess spiratone had two good to superb 135 1.8s. I would like to know what took the band pictures. I really like the bokeh. I'm guessing it was not the plura-coat which I think was newer and more rare and featured a much reduced optical formula. The bokeh on the pluracoat samples I saw didn't look as dreamy. So looking some more, the Y/S mount Spiratone 135 1.8 Telephoto was made by Sun and the Plura-Coat that Mitake made was M42. The Sun lens doesn't look multicoated, but has great bokeh. Interesting. I think I want to find one of these lenses now. 135mm is a very useful focal length on aps-c IMO.

That, and the previous were taken at Limekiln park (see the map). When I was a kid, it was privately owned park, and one of my family's favorite places to camp. We'd camp on a levee near the beach next to a lagoon formed by the levee holding back water from the creek. There are some nice woods, and a waterfall on the inland side of the park. Those poles and the orange sign are for the construction area to repair the damage from last year's big mudslide. If I were to dig through slides that I have downstairs I would be able to pictures I took of that stretch of beach ~40 years ago, attempting to catch light shining through the backs of waves.

And it was in focus ;) It's funny how every time I take a whole load of photos of something it's always either the first or last one I end up choosing. I have a similar set of another bird to go through so I'll see if I can break that rule.

All three are very nice. I particularly like the first one.

But otherwise, I hear you. There are a few gaps in the Fujinon range and the 28 f2.8 and 50 1.7 are useful as is a 135 3.5 I've got languishing in a cupboard. I don't think I'll buy any more Pentax lenses though. I do intend to do some film work with the MXes.
