Bugger.

Sorry Rob.  I was so keen to place my order that the possibility of a
bulk order didn't occur to me.  Mind you, we had some friends over
yesterday and after several hours of sampling some excellent reds, I may
well have ordered 'A Photographic Guide to Crazy Cormorants'.

Re: The saga has concluded

Hey Boris,

Maybe nobody else cares, but I do!  :-)

Glad you got it to work in the end. I'd take the shims of your hands,
but who knows what screen the K-8 is going to have or when it's going
to be released (or when I'm going to buy it, for that matter). Give
them to somebody who needs them now.

What I will accept is a few minutes with your K-7 + A 50mm f/1.2. I'd
like to know what it's like to shoot without feeling like I'm in a
focus lottery  :-)

Cheers,


  --M.

Not a Friday, but I can never do it on time (For Sale)

[Boris Liberman]

Hi!

I've the following items that I don't really need or use.

1. Pentax SMC FA-J 18-35/4-5.6 (very good sample) ($100)
2. D-BG2 (battery grip for K10D/K20D) ($100)
3. B+W MRC Circular Polarizer (Kaesemann, but not thin) filter in 58mm
variety.  ($70)

If there is anything that you think you can enable yourself with, do
let me know off-list. I am open to offers as well. And of course if
you come to Chicago - I can bring it with me so that you can inspect
it, use it throughout duration of my visit and decide whether you want
to keep it. In this case naturally, you get to save on the shipping
:-).

Great series Bob - reinforces my love of Paris too, and the wish that I'll

I'll also note that they left off the CureSearch logo - which I

the CureSearch fundraiser, so we won't be able to get the NCCF mailing

Ken,

In what way(s) is the hard cover better? I assume the inside is the same, 
right?


Subjectively, the image wrap has a more finished, permanent look/feel to it 
compared to the soft cover, you know like the difference between a hard 
cover book & a paperback.


Yes the contents are the same.



As an aside, Mark showed me the softcover version today, and it looks
GREAT. I thought last year's had a nice layout, but I prefer this
year's much more; Mark is clearly honing his book designing skills.
And everyone's photos look fantastic; I'm quite impressed with Blurb's
quality considering the book can be had for a little over 30 bucks.

Who took the photo of the kid crawling inside the pipe? You get extra
honours!  :-)

Jostein, I take my hat off to you. As I said to Mark and Lisa, it's
hard to take a good photo of Penguins, and you took a fantastic one.
Bravo!

Off photo.net?  Probably a dodgy ad.

I recently decided I've had enough and have installed a flash
blocker.  Just waiting now for advertisers to start using HTML5
instead.

Dave


Lately I've been having messages come up telling me I have to "turn 
off whatever ad blocking software you're running" in order to link to 
some content I've selected ... except that I don't run any "ad 
blocking software."


I just have a Hosts file with a list scumbag domains re-routed to 
127.0.0.1.


Message to advertisers - You want me to see your advertising, don't be 
a scumbag.


Message to Web sites - You want me to visit your site, don't host 
scumbag advertisers.



A slow connection will trigger that message as well.

I'll also note that they left off the CureSearch logo - which I
specifically sent to Sue Barton at her request - and all mention of
the CureSearch fundraiser, so we won't be able to get the NCCF mailing
list of Chicago-area donors to whom we might have been able to promote
the show. That's a fsck-up of major proportions compared to a
misspelling. :(

Ken,

In what way(s) is the hard cover better? I assume the inside is the same, right?

As an aside, Mark showed me the softcover version today, and it looks
GREAT. I thought last year's had a nice layout, but I prefer this
year's much more; Mark is clearly honing his book designing skills.
And everyone's photos look fantastic; I'm quite impressed with Blurb's
quality considering the book can be had for a little over 30 bucks.

Who took the photo of the kid crawling inside the pipe? You get extra
honours!  :-)

Jostein, I take my hat off to you. As I said to Mark and Lisa, it's
hard to take a good photo of Penguins, and you took a fantastic one.
Bravo!

A friend of mine has a G9 and the optical quality is excellent. The optical
viewfinder is too small for my taste. Earlier today I looked through an
electronic viewfinder for the first time and was favourably impressed.

No problem - I'll take as many as needed. UK PDMLers, send me your orders

As it happens I'm hoping to meet Bob tomorrow - our son Pete has just moved

And a pint...

Adobe software has a history of being Very Uncomfortable outside of the
ASCII character set.  This is not a fault of the PDF spec, but of the 
folks implementing the software. (The most recent version of Acrobat
finally went to an internal Unicode representation and stopped mangling
Chinese, but there are still some ticks and foibles in there.)

I've produced PDFs in Thai, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese,
Turkish, Polish, Japanese, Hungarian, and fifteen other (mostly Western
European) languages, but I didn't use Adobe software to do it.

Here's a good Adobe one.  I created a document in Adobe (note that word) 
Pagemaker.  Later, it needed to be translated into Polish.  Luckily, the 
text was also in Word files, so I could send those to a friend for 
translation.  I reinsert the text into the Polish version of the 
Pagemaker documents.  Then they need to be converted to pdfs for various 
reasons.  I also need just the Polish text into pdf format, so I shove 
the Word files through a converter.  These act as software printers, if 
you like.  You tell the file to print and one of the printer choices is 
the converter software, which writes the output to a new pdf file.  No 
problems with the Word files.


You can see where this is going, can't you?

Yes, I put the Pagemaker files through the same software and gibberish 
comes out the other side.  Three different brands of software later

OT - Enablement

[Christian Skofteland]

My new job has me traveling quite a bit.  The last three weeks were spent in 
Miami, Florida.
The next two weeks will be New York City and then I'll have a two week break 
before spending 
another two weeks in Paris. 

With all this travel to interesting locations I decided to enable myself with a 
new P&S camera.
After much deliberation I chose a Canon G11. I wish Pentax made a camera with 
the features and controls of the G11, but they don't so I didn't choose a 
Pentax... 

The G11 is small enough to travel with but has a real optical viewfinder and 
extensive controls so that it handles more like a "real" camera.  I'd travel 
with a KX because of it's small size and excellent image quality but the lenses 
add bulk and make it less pocketable and easy to carry.  My work involves 12 
hour days in a datacenter with very little free time so I just wanted something 
to have in a belt pouch and be ready for any photo ops that caome up.

Something else I like about the G11 is the exgtensive number of accessories 
available including third-party underwater housings and strobe setups.  Again 
something that's never available for poor Pentax cameras.

I've only had it for one day but so far I'm happy with the control layout and 
usage.  As I shoot more I'll see how image quality holds up.

Excellent results, all tack-sharp and perfectly exposed. Too bad the

Did they mount their own lighting for that?  I was surprised how well

RE: Paris

[Bob W]

Thank you very much - I'm very flattered - and to everyone else who has
commented. 

I love Paris - it's the city I know best after London although there is
still a lot more I want to understand. For instance, it was only while I was
there this week that I learned about les grisettes (hence the photo of the
statue!) and the significance of 1830. 

Paris is as interesting as London for me, but I haven't spent enough time
there yet fully to shake off the photo cliches and find my own voice. I hope
to do so of course, but I'm no Juan Buhler, and photographers such as Atget,
Brassai, Kertesz, Doisneau, Cartier-Bresson, Izis, Ronis, Erwitt and so on
are a hard act to follow!

RE: Ultra-wide zooms [Scanned][Spam score:8%]

[John Whittingham]

"As far as my very limited experience allows me to opine, people don't
like primes because they don't like changing lenses."

-- Graydon

I love primes, but use a Sigma 10-20 f/4-5.6 for the wide end. I could have 
bought a DA 14 f/2.8 but I'd be limited to 14mm. Now if all the primes covered 
by the Sigma 10-20mm were available, which they're not I still wouldn't buy 
them because I couldn't fir them in the kit bag! My standard kit consists of 
the following:

Sigma EX 10-20 OR Pentax DA*16-50
Sigma AF 24/2.8
Pentax FA 28/2.8
Pentax FA 35/2
Pentax FA 50/1.4
Pentax DA 70/2.4 Limited 
Tamron Di 90/2.8 Macro
Pentax FA 135/2.8

The DA 14/2.8 is roughly the size of the Sigma 10-20 and offers very little in 
th way of extra IQ, it gains a faster aperture but looses flexibility in 
spades. But I have to agrree with JC on this, a modern prime will beat a modern 
zoom every time if made to the same standard. I have the DA*200/2.8 and DA 
300/4 and they're just awesome!!!

I'm really glad of that choice.  I believe a number of others voiced 
similar opinion.

Shouldn't be a problem.  I can mail some or Chris Mitchell and take some 
back with him.  Either way is just fine for me.  So, Chris, are you willing 
:-).  Chris could take enough back for all our UK PDMLers I would think.

That's what I went with, too.  But last year there was a "premium paper"
variation - I don't see that as an option this year :-(

Thanks - but I think you should spend the money on a week in Paris instead.
Several times while I was over there - especially when the film crew walked
backwards past me - I thought to myself I can't believe you've never been
there.

[Boris Liberman]

Hi!

It appears that my Katz Eye screen on K-7 is now in perfect state of 
tune. Having performed the testing procedure as described by Rachael 
Katz and having submitted the results for her scrutiny I have been told 
that there is nothing to improve. I've been shooting with my favorite A 
50/1.2 for few days now and I hit the focus consistently.


All in all, I think it is the best service I've ever received in my 
life. The whole story span across many months and Rachael was always 
there offering her advise and help. And finally, the effort paid off...


I can probably never thank her enough nor praise her enough.

Boris-the-happy-bloke

P.S. If anyone needs Pentax K-7 shims of sizes 0.1, 0.15 and 0.2 mm - 
please let me know - I can either send them to you or bring them in 
person to Chicago. They may prove useful.

Don't take this as being any kind of artistic photo gallery, it's just a bunch

http://www.multi.net.nz/headphone-stand/

I'd been wanting to build this since I finished the headphone amplifier* about 
a year ago.  My original plans were for something more along the lines of a 
sculpture but that would have been really hard.  At least my headphones have 
somewhere to rest now instead of sitting atop the CD player.

(*) Yes, it's an amplifier built just for headphones.  Good ones can be quite 
expensive.

BTW scroll saws are wonderful :)


I believe you've managed to create a new subgenre of steampunk there.
