FS: Friday (more)
Need some PayPal money fast, so I'm giving my contemporaries at PDML a 3 day opportunity to own a chunk of my gear. Prices are negotiable just in case I screw up my research badly. If that's the case, I will try to match recent sales from reliable sources. All prices include shipping within the US. International available upon request. Most have original boxes, none are still in warranty. Purchased between 1990 and 2013 2010. Much of what I'm selling is in mint condition, some never used other than to make sure it worked when I bought it. Photos on request. Wanted to get this up before the east coasters hit the sack. This equipment is going up on flee-bay Monday afternoon, so you know I'll have photos by then. :) Tamron-F SP Tele-Converter 2X KR BBAR MC-7, like new, Tamron Caps, no case, no box. Pretty! $45.00 Pentax AF-400FTZ Flash with case, pristine inside and out, well, except for the velcro for the as yet unfound soft-hood, which I may find!. Used little. $40.00 Pentax 67 External Bayonet Long Lens Extension Tubes (3). Rare find if you've got any of that looong glass y'all been talking about for your medium format expeditions. Mounts to the External bayonet flanges vs the Internal bayonet flanges. Got it? Still in original wrappings inside the original Pentax leather case. Case has some cracks in the leather, but no splits. $50.00 Pentax LX Body, Finder, Fine condition, still has plastic on base. With Motor Drive, Battery Pack, Charger, caps. box, I think. Last CLA in 2006. No body batteries. Helps keep the battery cabinet clean. My batteries are only good enough to check out the camera's operation. $470.00 I also have almost ALL the LX finders (not the collapsible hood), 6 Pentax LX focusing screensand one Beattie Intenscreen Plus, plain, Fresnel Optics 82410. Pentax screens $25.00 each - Beattie $15. Finders Priced accordingly. Coming soon - Pentax MX Black body, Ex+; Pentax Long Roll Back for LX (and MX?), Pentax Daylight Loader for the Long Roll Back Cartridges. Four Pentax MX focusing screens. $24.00 each. 3 Focusing screens for the PZ-1(p), an FI-60, FG-60, and an FK-60. $20 each.

Since I have no idea what I'm doing when it comes to such things, I've found that most of my attempts to fix exposure problems end up rendering the image unusable.

Well, I don't own a K-5, I'm just renting two for my cruise next month (for which this list has been a big help). A large part of the point is to decide whether I want to own a K-5, and I'm currently leaning toward too big and bulky, which pretty much leaves only the OM-D as an option for interchangeable lens after hating the E-PL5 in ten minutes. (Not surprisingly, I'm really a DSLR kinda guy when it comes to controls, I also disliked the Panasonic G3.) Getting the Canon G1X would put off needing a systems camera for low-light work, and I'd wait to see whether Pentax puts out a serious mirrorless (K-01 not being serious enough for my needs, and of course Q/Q10 aren't good enough for low-light work). After two days rental, I'm still waffling but will likely get the G1X, main sticking point is the almost complete lack of macro capability (eight inches at 28mm equiv).

PDML Photo Annual Update
OK, the 2013 Photo Annual is about 99% done. I have to get the official URL for the Global Health Initiative program (if possible) and also the new logo for the program. The logo hasn't actually been decided upon yet: Dana-Farber has let me set up a competition between our senior graphic design students to come up with one and that should be finalized soon (there's only a week and a half left in the semester!) I haven't finished the Quotations List introduction or the Global Health Initiative update yet and I still don't have Doug's Foreword yet but those are all text I have all the photos and graphics completed and formatted and that's where the real work is. So I'll probably upload a prototype book on Monday without the missing bits. In about two weeks (or less) I'll have a test print which I can use to tweak the images. By that time we should have all the missing text and I'l be able to upload the finished product. So you should be able to order the book in about two weeks. -- Mark Roberts - Photography Multimedia www.robertstech.com -- 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: PESO - Queenie
Great shot. And excellent of you to photograph a fixture like her. knarftheria...@gmail.com knarftheria...@gmail.com wrote: Queenie has been a downtown fixture since I moved to Toronto in the mid-nineties. She has always walked hunched over her walker, often gesturing wildly with one arm, almost always talking to herself, sometimes screeching as she walks along. Looking back I am surprised, quite frankly, that she's still around. I guess she's tenacious if nothing else. Everyone calls her Queenie: http://knarfinthecity.blogspot.ca/2013/04/queenie.html?m=1 Hope you enjoy. Comments welcome.
