FS: FA 80-200 mm 2.8
As I really want to sell the lens, I have reduced the asking price again, although I realize it may not be a good moment with all the frenzy about the new K20D just now: FA 80-200 mm. 2.8 LN- (almost like new), with its original Pentax S120-230 pouch and pouch strap, front and back caps and original lenshood. I will also include a like new B+W 77 mm. UV filter. It's only got a small blemish: between the first and second element, it has a very small hazy spot only visible at a certain angle, which doesn't affect the quality of the pictures in any way. I took it to my usual repair shop, and they said it wasn't fungus and it wasn't worth opening the lens to clean such a small spot. They also said that special tooling was needed to open the lens in case I wanted to have it cleaned and it should be sent to an official Pentax service centre. I can send photos of the lens to prospective buyers. Price: now 1200 euros,INCLUDING shipping expenses. I am the original owner of this lens. If you are interested in it, please send a message to my email box, not the list. Thank you for your attention.

Specially Sunday night, as i would like to get some sleep before i have to get up and drive for a week.:-) My question is, i have fiqured out how to add a watermark filter for my copyright to show up in the centre of the photo, using the class=Watermark Filter text=copyright d j brooks size=30 closeups valign=center, code, which gives a bit of a see through effect. Any one know if i can increase the opasity of it a bit, or failing that, add a second WM at 1/3 from top and bottom. Is it an offset i need to set somewere.??

Re: My first indoor show since 2004
I'll be getting there earlier than the start time, as i want to play a bit with settings, but i'm just wondering if setting a CWB either with a white piece of paper or my Expo disk might help matters.

Slide Scanning at Costco
I believe this was discussed recently. I took 10 slides to the local Costco. They scanned and put on cd for 2.90, including the cd. The images are about 2100 dpi, avg 3.2 meg each file. JPEG only unfortunately. However, the quality was excellent. I thought I was getting ok results from my HP scanner at 2400 dpi but the prints from these are much better than I had been able to do from my scans. Tomorrow I will be selecting from my large archive the slides I want to archive on cd's. At that price it will be worth paying someone else. Also, they were fast. Had the job done in 30 minutes!

I will ask them I just made some 8.5 x 11's from one of the scans and the same view that I had scanned before.Their scan is far superior to mine. Presuming they are running a Noritsu machine, they can output a couple of resolutions of jpeg (~1000x1600 and ~2000x3000), possibly higher if the scanners have gotten better, and then they have the option of tiff or jpegs at several compressions. If they are running Fuji, I would expect similar possibilities. I don't think Noritsu has gone to 16 bit scans yet, Fuji may have though.

Re: First shots with the Voigtlander 58/1.4
Thanks Paul, Sydney is where it's at at the moment. Queen Victoria here today, Queen Elizabeth 2 tomorrow, the Pope in a few months (at that cathedral). And our girls are kinda hot on the catwalk in NY, London, Milan and Paris at the moment too. Sorry for this boosterism. It is a very pleasant 25C sunny day, and I'm going out again to shoot some more. D Paul Stenquist wrote: Some nice pics. Looking good. Where are you?

Re: Firebird
Paul: You know your car shots are really terrific when they greatly appeal to a woman (me) who has never much cared about cars. In fact, I bought by very 1st new car just this past May 2007 at the age of 48. I did own a motorcycle once. I really enjoyed riding that, but then I got domestic. Anyway, your car photography makes cars look fun.

Re: First shots with the Voigtlander 58/1.4
Derby: Those shots are really nice. You know, I had never heard of the Voigtlander lens before subscribing to this list. Now having seen several pics, I have a strong itch for that lens. Hope you get this post. I don't think my posts are posting. thought I'd try again.

Re: Shots from a new K20D
Cotty escribió: On 22/02/08, Carlos Royo, discombobulated, unleashed: I understand your feelings, Cotty. I feel the same when I look at Canon's offerings. Oh don't get me wrong - I'm not tempted by those either. The only two things I could possibly be tempted by are another R-D1, or a 36X24 sensor. I wouldn;t have a 5D. I can't afford a 1DsmIII, but maybe a 1DsMll used.. Talking about that, I saw in a Spanish web site I usually explore a used Canon 1 DS (full frame, 11 Mp) a few days ago for what it seemed a good price (1500 euro). I don't know if it is really a bargain because I don't know how much they usually cost in the second hand market.
