OT GESO - Protest
Was doing my normal thing in the city, when police and ambulance sirens started down George Street (the main drag). Turns out folks were protesting that wacky youtube movie. Became unpleasant with the dogs and pepper spray. http://members.iinet.net.au/~derbyc/12/12_09/12_09_protest/index.htm The first shot in front of Tiffany's is misleading. The US consulate is on the other side of the road. http://www.smh.com.au/nsw/police-gas-sydney-protesters-20120915-25yrb.html But it wasn't like it's being show in the media. The protesters were relatively contained, if pretty vocal. The violence only started when they were kettled off in Hyde Park and the arrests started. I fully support their right to protest. Just seems out of character for such a lovely spring afternoon. Kudos to the speaker on the megaphone for calming things down with a prayer, and for the NSW police for handling it (I'm guessing this wasn't an authorised protest, because normally the force would be out ahead of time).

Re: OT: High Performance Laptops
Tom, I also think that SSD and RAM would be more important than the fastest CPU. The former would speed up loading photos and improve responsiveness of Photoshop/LR in general. CPU would noticeably help (but still marginally IMHO) when you ask LR to export a bunch of photos or a web-gallery. That's where chrunching power speeds things up. I think I didn't mention why I would consider a desktop - that's the flexibility of upgrades. While the computer life cycle seemingly became shorter, I still think a desktop life cycle can be extended for longer. Also you gain flexibility of choosing the display which is uncoupled from the choice of the computer itself. This arguments are relevant when you are talking about large-size laptops (17+) that are heaving and only marginally mobile. Personally, I prefer smaller-display laptops that are light and portable (12-13 max). However, if you still want a 17+, here yet another lead/pointer for you: http://www.logicbuy.com/deals/alienware-m18x/30910.aspx (I didn't look into details - there are too many options there...) hth, Igor Igor -- 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: No Pentax K mount for new Tamron 70-200/2.8 lens
It does appear that people are happier with the AT-X Pro but I haven't figured out what specifications differences there are between PRO and a non-PRO Tokina AT-X. I've seen the SD designation on both the PRO and the Non-Pro. In any event, a lot of people don't seem to get the difference between chromatic aberration of the lens and purple fringing which most people agree is caused my the microlenses on the sensor. Thus, I get kind of tired of hearing that this lens causes this or that, without also knowing what sensor you are putting the lens in front of. I also think that some people use a lens in improper conditions. An f2.8 zoom in this range is probably meant for low-light conditions or when you are trying to boost your shutter speed to freeze action. If you are shooting indoors with it, I doubt you get purple fringing. If you are shooting on a cloudy day, I doubt you get purple fringing. If you aim it at bare tree branches on a sunny cloudless day at f2.8 (or there abouts) then I'll bet you get some purple fringing. Mike Johnston calls this stressing a lens http://theonlinephotographer.typepad.com/the_online_photographer/how-to-stress-a-camera-le.html But it still isn't really (probably) being caused by the lens, but by the bleeding of information at the sensor level. -- 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.

I've been an early adapter on APS-C cameras and lenses. Don't think I'll go for full frame right away. It will depend a lot on the lens lineup and compatibility with the DA* 60-250, my workhorse. I remember you asking why anyone would need more than a 6MP DSLR when I was complaining about the fact that's all Pentax was churning out. I don't recall saying that, but there's much I don't recall.

I just don't want to see APS-C development abandoned in favor of a format that has little lens support. Actually the REST of the world does care. Evidence is the fact that the two largest DSLR manufacturers have multiple FF bodies and have had for years. But Pentax isn't ready to compete on their level. If they can muscle up both a camera and lens lineup in full frame, more power to them. But I still don't see it.

Re: Best FF Pentax Rumour Story EVER!!!!!!
I think the automotive manufacturer analogy is probably the most appropriate. Some manufacturers like to be in *every* market, from the inexpensive subcompact up to the full-size pickup. But a lot of auto manufacturers make a good living by excluding some markets. If you want a pickup, you have to get one from a manufacturer who makes one. Some companies stick with a core competency until they build a sufficient reputation (and sales) which allows for expansion into other markets. Some continue to restrict themselves to only certain markets. Some of us might remember many years ago when Honda made some serious rust buckets. They were popular cars: Got good gas mileage and good reliability, but had some body integrity issues which they eventually addressed and soon they hit a couple of models out of the park with new designs and developed a reputation for quality. Of course, they still didn't make pickups. Until one day, they did. Now I don't hang out in the automotive forums, and maybe there were some people who (before Honda introduced their Ridgeline pickup) got totally ticked off at Honda for not bringing out a pickup when they wanted to buy one. And they whined and complained and stamped their feet about how they were gonna buy Toyota or Ford from now on and how Honda, as a company, really sucked for not bringing out a pickup. Now in my opinion, those people can spend their money on whatever they want, but if they after switching brands hey decided to hang out in a Honda enthusiast's forum and continue to whine about Honda, I would really start to wonder about them. If someone has decided to abandon Pentax for another brand, for whatever reason, bully for them! But seriously, why would they be hanging out in a PENTAX DISCUSS Mail List after making that decision, unless (perhaps) they have an abusive personality and enjoy poking people with virtual sticks? I speak only for myself here, but if I find someone urinating in my Cheerios, I consider it to be bad form. -- 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.

I personally couldn't give a hoot who makes the body that's compatible with my lenses, I lost my loyalty to Pentax some time ago. If the D800E was Pentax mount compatible I would have one now. I have a big kit of old and new lenses (mainly 3rd party now) of which many are 24x36mm frame capable and I would like a body to suit. -- Rob Studdert (Digital Image Studio) Tel: +61-418-166-870 UTC +10 Hours Gmail, eBay, Skype, Twitter, Facebook, Picasa: distudio -- 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.
