I just unearthed mine. I found a couple of batteries that still had good
charge, put them in and - wonder of wonders, it still seems to work. 
However, the ASA dial is either jammed tight or I need another set of
fingers to move it...

Edit:

With a good amount of struggling, I did manage to move it from ASA200 to
100. I can see why you'd only want to use one film speed in this thing.

Re: We Tried It: The Pentax K System

[David Mann]

The K2 dial never bothered me, mainly because I had little need to change it.  
I still have one that's slowly deteriorating on the shelf.  I can't bear to let 
it go despite not using it since I bought the K10D.

Dave

Re: We Tried It: The Pentax K System

[Brian Walters]

Thanks

During my collecting phase (about 10 years ago - I'm over it now :-) ) I
bought one of each of these.  I used the KX for a couple of years before
digital took over.  I really liked that camera. 

They're still stashed away in a cupboard so I must get them out and see
if they still work.

The KX was my favourite of the three.  The K2 was nominally the top of
the line but that film speed setting dial around the lens flange was an
odd design choice.  It invariably seized up and became almost impossible
to move.

Re: We Tried It: The Pentax K System

[John Francis]

I still have the MX I bought only a year later.

I've often wondered why Pentax introduced two entirely new
body ranges so close together - they must have had the M-series
bodies well on the way to production by the time the KM/KX/K2
were released.

Never noticed that before.
Surely a much pleasant view.

Thanks for the tip.

Re: 20th Anniversary PUG is Up!

Verizon just announced they're merging AOL with Yahoo into a new service
called Oath (or Swear or Curse or ...).

Try this again from Yahoo.

I tried to send a reply from my Earthlink account & got a bounce from
the Spam Eating Monkey. Apparently Earthlink user Steve Moyer is still
SPAMMING mailing lists & getting Earthlink's Servers blacklisted.

It may have something to  do with the fact I haven't used that email
account, period, for years. Maybe AOL  isn't used to it anymore. ;-) Anyway, I
would tend to blame AOL first, before I  look for other problems.

Fortunately, I have this other account that does receive those  posts.

Re: PESO - Tulip Leaf

Gonz, typing an 'L' when you are viewing any Flickr pic will toggle
Lightbox view as well. They don't advertise that very well, but it's a
useful old feature.

Thanks for that tip Bruce, I didn't know you could do that, it makes
the pic much more usable than the preview they have in the main page
for the pic.

Re: PESO - Tulip Leaf

[Bulent Celasun]

Thank you, Bruce.

The less than optimal DOF is due to my laziness.
I opted for the monopod and left the tripod at home.
Not surprisingly, the monopod did not help at all.

A lovely study, Bulent.

I'd have opted for a touch more DoF, just to give stronger definition
to the lines.

By the way, the "lightbox" URL gives it a more pleasing presentation:

Re: Grandfather Mountain Nature Photography Weekend

[John Sessoms]

I'm currently using Yahoo for PDML.

There's a known problem between Yahoo & Gmail regarding mailing lists.
Gmail says Yahoo mail fails Yahoo's own authentication and marks the
Yahoo messages as SPAM.

I'm pretty sure there's a way Gmail can create a filter to white-list
the email address.

That's a fine gallery indeed - every image is engaging and it was great

G'day all,

Well, we ended up with 70 submissions - well done all!  A fine way to
celebrate 20 years.

It was great to hear from a number of past members - maybe some of you
will stick around for a while. :-)

The submissions are wide ranging in scope so no point in trying to pick
favourites.

As usual you'll find the gallery here:

http://pug.komkon.org/

(you may need to refresh your browser if you see the previous gallery
there).

Note: The automated submission process usually works well but it's not
infallible.  So, if you made a submission and you don't see it in the
gallery, let me know.

So, onwards for the next 20 years...

Next up for May: 'Leading Lines'.

Full Submissions Guidelines here:

You're very kind, Cotty. My only regret is having taken that shot of
Anna with the vile K7. Everyone knows you can't get a good image out of
that sensor.

Re: PESO: Watching Sunset

[Daniel J. Matyola]

Thanks, John.
Also, I was a bit far away from the people in the foreground, so reall fill
flash probably wouldn't work.
I could, of course, lighten them up in PhotoShop, but:  1) nI'm lazy; 2}
that would change the mood of the scene; and 3} I'm lazy.

It was great to see pictures again from those who are no longer with us;  I
remember so well their postings to the PDML.

A really nice gallery in all for every reason. I can't pick out a favourite,
I genuinely love them all.

Thanks for the kind words about my own submission.
