Re: PESO living room B/W

I had more books than I could manage. Tried to give some away to libraries and 
schools. No one wants them. It's a function of the digital age. I'm sending 
them to the landfill. At least we can be thankful that they're biodegradable.

Photo Videos to Watch

We just finished watching “Everybody Street” (about NY city street

“America & Lewis Hine.”

Highly recommend these—all great fun to see!  They are on iTunes.

Perhaps you never tried to do any real work on a first generation Apple 
Macintosh.


Between the reacquisition and the loss of Steve Jobs, Apple did many 
things well.  They also did amny things that work well for some, and not 
at all for others.  When the first non-phone iPhone (iPad touch?) was 
released, I really, really wanted to like the shiny.  I tried, but I 
couldn't.  I've always found IOS to be incredibly frustrating and 
counter intuitive.


At least with OSX I can get to an intuitive bash prompt.

Getting the damned thing to actually do what I want it to do.
Simple things like give me a home screen, download a free app from their

There seems to be a real mother hen attitude at Apple, something that 
Android and Windows doesn't have.
I think I got it working, but I had to break down and show it my

Hopefully now that I've let it control my life a little bit it will relent.
All this so I can have a nice screen (and the screen is VERY nice

it collect dust for a couple of years. I had heard incorrectly that
they couldn't be serviced, but I figured I would at least find out.
Turns out they can service them, but not in America. The round trip to
Japan was a month and a half and it came back looking like a brand new
lens along with my K-3. I took some test shots and after a little
focus adjustment it looks like the old 12-24 I once knew and loved.
They left me with the gouged up hood from where it hit the pavement
though lol. Think pentax wants me to buy a new lens hood? :)

This experience has tempted me to send anything outside of warranty
directly to Japan for service. It was $250 to rebuild the lens.
Strangely I don't think they replaced the rear part of the lens so I
guess my self repair on the stripped screw threads is holding pretty
well.

The K-3 from precision was another story. I sent them a K-3, a 20-40
and a 55-300, both of which were decentered. The 55-300 came back
decentered even worse. I had no hopes that they would fix my 20-40
properly. I complained. Pentax sent me brand new lenses that were much
better. The K-3 came back and the AF points in the viewfineder were
completely in the wrong place. I sent it back. When it came back the
camera was overexposing in daylight by about two stops. Something was
miscalibrated. Back it went that day. It seems fine, but I haven't had
any broad daylight to test it with. I would hope that they wouldn't
let the same problem happen twice.

Total repair time: 2 months. Not great at all. Not after all this time
they have had to get their act together at precision. I did get two
decent replacements for my lenses so I really have to thank Pentax for
doing that for me. I have been told by some people that things are
changing in that regard and that the service situation will be greatly
improved. I really hope so. This is the kind of stuff that makes
people ditch systems, especially working pros. Not having a 2nd body
for a long time really cramped my style and forced me to swap lenses
constantly which in the thick of things is the last thing you want to
be pissing around with and missing shots. My k-7 is passable as a 2nd
body in good light but that's about it. I wouldn't try to shoot an
indoors event with it unless I had some pretty fast glass attached.

Hoping for some sun this weekend. :)

The Return of the Prodigal Lens AND the Prodigal Camera

[Zos Xavius]

So after no less than 3 trips to Precision my "lucky" third K-3 has
returned today and I have yet to find anything wrong with it.
Hopefully the sealing is still good. I fully intend on finding out in
the next thunderstorm we get.

I decided to send them my 12-24 finally at the same time after letting
it collect dust for a couple of years. I had heard incorrectly that
they couldn't be serviced, but I figured I would at least find out.
Turns out they can service them, but not in America. The round trip to
Japan was a month and a half and it came back looking like a brand new
lens along with my K-3. I took some test shots and after a little
focus adjustment it looks like the old 12-24 I once knew and loved.
They left me with the gouged up hood from where it hit the pavement
though lol. Think pentax wants me to buy a new lens hood? :)

This experience has tempted me to send anything outside of warranty
directly to Japan for service. It was $250 to rebuild the lens.

Well, I have yet to observe any mortal with the K-1 in his or her hands
- as such it is still a fantasy.

Apparently Steady Stenquist has the battery grip to keep his palm and
finger muscles primed and ready, but that's about it.

The hat is still alive - by a thread (literally).

I will, of course, require photographic evidence of a PDMLer, at least
one, with said camera in hand, before I will imbibe.

I got a refund of about $1000 because I overpaid estimated tax in 2015, but on 
April 18 I had to make the first estimated tax payment for 2016 of about $4500. 
That's how it works for small biz owners. No joy at tax time.

OTOH, if I *OWED* them $0.97 ...

This year I will get a refund on my state taxes. It should arrive

I filed well before the deadline they won't answer inquiries before July
11th.

FSF: Pentax LX

[Miserere]

Up for sale, my Pentax LX; it's one of the versions with ASA setting
up to 3200. It's in very good cosmetic shape, and was given a thorough
going-over by Eric Hendrickson maybe 24 months ago. The only problem
it has is the shutter release lock doesn't lock, and Eric says he
can't fix it (a sign of the Apocalypse nearing???).

For those that are still interested, note that it comes with the
original grip and strap (the important part being the bits that hook
onto the camera lugs). The viewfinder is the FA-1W model, with an
extended diopter adjustment range of +1 to -3 (and I include the
original tool to adjust the diopter). The focusing screen is the
SC-21.

Still interested? Make me an offer!

Cheers,

Re: FSF: Pentax-A 50mm f/1.2

Sorry Cotty, I've been away from the list for some time due to having
NO TIME for fun stuff, like, you know, reading the inspired prose
published on the PDML, or taking pictures of human beings other than
those I have fathered.

While I have you on the line, I have been curious as to the digestive
state of your hat. It's a sad state of affairs that whenever I come
across some piece of news about the K-1 I don't think about what
exciting photos I could take it with it, but rather ask myself whether
Cotty has eaten his hat or not.

Sadly and pathetically yours,

Or perhaps because income taxes were due last Monday and some list

You are an evil man.




I also have an original classic Pentax strap, appears never used, that

Good job at getting detail in the reds and yellows.  I’ve always found that 
very difficult with flowers.


Christine, checking the image, using the in-camera histogram, in the RGB

FSF: My Pentax gear

[Boris Liberman]

Hi!

The FA 50/1.4 is sold. The DA* 16-50 is well on its way to another list 
member who may find it useful, at least for parts.


So, make me an offer for the following:

* Pentax K-5, OEM battery grip, 1 extra OEM battery, magnifying eye cap, 
slightly more than 20k shutter clicks


* Sigma 24-60/2.8 - I recon it will be excellent standard zoom for K-1 
for fraction of a price of 24-70/2.8 and also a good bit smaller and lighter


* Sigma 17-70/2.8-4.5 - the non-SDM version. Would go as a very good kit 
lens for the K-5 above.


* Metz 50 AF-1 flash - not the most powerful, but still powerful enough. 
Tilts, swivels, firmware upgradeable via USB thingie...


* Assortment of Pentax lens pouches. If you feel like your lenses 
deserve a soft bed :-), do speak up.


Non-Pentax, but related nonetheless:

* Ricoh GXR kit - camera body, AF 28 module, electronic viewfinder 
(attached to the shoe on the camera), lens adapter to turn it to 21 mm lens


Be sure to contact me off list. This gear needs to sell.

Thanks.

Boris

Hi Alan

I have the A version of this lens. I have been very happy with it. Bear in

Ack!!

I was asking if anyone had one for sale recently. Just bought a f/1.4
instead but actually that has freed up funds for a wide angle so maybe
just as well!!

Send the strap to Bill. He'll know what to do with it ;-)
