Cool find
For some time now, I have wanted to find a way of viewing Pentax RAW files (PEF) in Windows Explorer. I found this answer on that other forum. http://forum.idimager.com/viewtopic.php?t=3150 It allows Explorer to thumbnail PEF files, and as an added bonus, it thumbnails Adobe PSD files as well. It doesn't work with Vista, and I don't know if it works with any emulation of XP other than Pro. It does initially bog Explorer down quite badly (well, actually, it freezes it solid) as the files get thumbnailed , but once that happens, it's all good. Use at your own risk, but my results are good.

Re: Chinatown Plaza
From: Jack Davis [EMAIL PROTECTED] Yeah, I considered getting rid of that red truck. Unlike many, I don't find myself looking at scenes with the eye of a photojournalist. If I were pining for publication as such, I'd be working on developing stories. In my present casual mode, however, said drive just isn't a present. Only look at scenes from a pictorial perspective with each being complete as a single shot. This section of town does have other residue of that era and I will be through there again I'm sure. Thanks much for commenting, Bill. It's too static a scene for photojournalism. Doesn't even set the scene for a story, because there's no people there. The photojournalist approach would be to get closer, open one of those doors find some people ... take a photo of what they're doing, even if it's nothing more than some old guy complaining how deserted the place is because all the young people have run off to the city. I'm not criticizing your photo, although I'd have tried to clean up the other end where the vacant lot intrudes ... but not having seen the scene, I can't tell you how I'd have done it exactly, other than possibly moving a few steps to the left and angling the camera more to the right to fill that side of the frame with the side of the building ... which might have hidden the red truck behind the other end of the buildings as well. Still I enjoy the photo and the back story about the area. -- 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.

Re: Cool find
From: mike wilson [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: William Robb [EMAIL PROTECTED] For some time now, I have wanted to find a way of viewing Pentax RAW files (PEF) in Windows Explorer. I found this answer on that other forum. http://forum.idimager.com/viewtopic.php?t=3150 It allows Explorer to thumbnail PEF files, and as an added bonus, it thumbnails Adobe PSD files as well. It doesn't work with Vista, and I don't know if it works with any emulation of XP other than Pro. It does initially bog Explorer down quite badly (well, actually, it freezes it solid) as the files get thumbnailed , but once that happens, it's all good. Does it do that at every startup/access of the picture directory, or is it a one-off? My experience with it, it's every time you open a folder including PEF files. Just open the folder, and go make a pot of coffee. By the time you've drunk 3 or 4 cups, it will have rendered the thumbnails and you're good to go. No more problems until you change to a different folder. YMMV. -- 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.

Re: OT The ultimate Halloween for the 3-4 crowd
From: Jack Davis [EMAIL PROTECTED] I guess that Salem stake burning thing hasn't happened for awhile, huh? That was only for witches and not warlocks though, I guess. whew! I don't think they made a distinction between witches warlocks in colonial Salem. Probably didn't have Bewitched on the tube to provide guidance back then. Male witches were sometimes called wizards. Six of the ninteen convicted witches who were executed were male. One accused male witch died in prison. And they didn't burn witches in Salem, they hanged them - except for one old guy they pressed to death by piling heavy stones on top of him until it killed him. He wasn't actually convicted of witchcraft, they were just trying to convince him to submit to trial. -- 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.

RE: The world's richest photo prize
That was a mixed bag of brilliance and mediocrity, but the winner was clearly the most deserving. Interesting, for a worldwide competition, open to all regardless of age, amateur/professional status or whatever, I wonder how many of us even knew it was underway. Certainly, I've seen no mention of it in Australian press, or on any internet news or photography site. The theme of water sustainability would have been most apt in my country, but I doubt that many Australian photographers were aware of the competition. I gleaned this quote from http://www.prixpictet.com/about/ Entry to the Prix Pictet is by nomination. A global nominations panel of 49 leading experts in the visual arts, from six continents, has made over 200 nominations from 43 countries that will lead to the image or set of images that will, in the opinion of the independent jury, have the power and artistic quality demanded by the Prix. But there was no mention of who these shadowy nomination panels were, or how they operated or could be approached. So I applied for their email updates and enquired of the identity of their regional media partners for my country, and suggest that anyone interested should do the same. Otherwise the next you will hear of this competition is when the next winner is announced.

auto bracketing in shutter speed steps
I would like to be able to auto bracket in shutter speed steps rather than f-stops when shooting in manual exposure mode with the K20D. Is there a way to make that happen?

Re: PESO: That Look!
Clean quiet shot. I agree that the shutter makes a crisper more solid sound. Especially impressed with the 20's superior dynamic range as shown by some recent test results produced when compared with others in its class. High ISO noise appears well controlled, at least in those few shots at which I've squinted. When I'm in possession of a DA* SDM lens, I'll be tuned in to see if I can sense increased speed compared with my DA/FA lenses.

The difference between the DA and DA* lenses to me is quite noticeable. I put out a lot of money for the 50-135mm DA*; they are a lot cheaper now; but I have to say I have never regretted the purchase--never. In fact, after almost a year later, I'm still saying to myself, I am so glad I bought this lens. I'd like to get my hands on the wide angle DA*, but that will have to wait a bit I think.
