50 years ago, I bought an Asahi Pentax Spotmatic at the PX, rather than the
Minolta 101 I went there to buy, in part because I was told that Asahi made
its own glass, and that Asahi Glass was the very best available.

Tuesday evening I ran across this sample of Asahi glass, and was impressed
by its weight, color and taste:

Re: Third party K-1 pixel shift support

2017-05-18 Thread Bruce Walker
Time is worth something. That's what stops me from diddling with every
single piece of software that happens along, because to do it usefully
takes a lot of time. I'm always disappointed when something that looks
very promising turns out to have a fatal flaw such that all my
experimenting time was wasted.

Opportunity cost: time spent dinking with one package means I can't
spend time on something else that might have been more worthwhile.

Not installed. I am considering that it would run a photo viewer or a
web browser (unless autorun is disabled). That's for those who don't
know what to do with Jpeg files..



Ok, the URL you included was about how to make cross platform
*installation* CDs.

My experience with Windoze, if you insert a CD with just image files &
no autorun, it opens an AutoPlay Dialog, with options to import photos
or to open the folder to view files using Windows Explorer. Windows
default import setting copies the images into "My Pictures".

In Explorer, you can double click the photo's icon and it will open in
whatever photo program you have installed. If you don't already have a
program installed for viewing photos, it opens with "Windows Photo Viewer.

Probably the more important consideration though was Larry's point about
so many of the newer computers no longer having CD/DVD drives. None of
the MacBooks have them. I don't think even the iMacs have them anymore.

Subject: LX

On Saturday I set sail for France, cycling hopefully from Roscoff to Avignon 
and thence to a gite for a week with friends, here:

http://www.tourisme-pernes.fr/fr/decouvrir-et-se-divertir/histoire-et-patrimoine-de-pernes/le-patrimoine-de-pernes/fontaine-du-cormoran

I have re-jigged my website as a blog so that people can follow me, and I 
can post phone snaps along the way. If anyone here is interested:

https://web-options.com/

When I get back I'll figure out how to use it for a portfolio of shots.

Q: Why is this post entitled LX?
A: Whilst there I'll become eligible for free prescriptions, free public 
transport in London, and 30% off rail travel


I'll unsubscribe sometime tomorrow for the duration.

A bientôt,
B

This alone would make the trip to France worthwhile! Very generous of your 
hosts.

Have a safe yet nevertheless enjoyable trip.

I’ll be crossing a similar chronological meridian in 2 1/2 weeks; I’ll have 
gratis transit in Philly and modest discounts here and there.

Have a great trip! Looking forward to the photos.

Re: K-3 auto focus on video

2017-05-18 Thread P. J. Alling
No, you're going to have pull focus manually.  I think it has focus 
peaking, which should make that easier, but I shoot a K-5II, and based 
on every review would shoot something other than Pentax, if I cared 
about shooting video.

Just noticed you can even set it it to a 'slideshow' modus (after selecting all 
files).
It is in the 'view' menu, just like the 'full screen'.

You use 'Finder' (the directory browser) to navigate to the folder, 
double-click to open it.

Once in the folder use 'cmd+A' to select all files,  the double-click on any
of the selected ones to open all of them in preview.

Preview has a sidebar with thumbnails, and you can use up/down arrow keys
to go through the set. You can also switch to full-screen mode, and the
arrow keys still work then (but the sidebar is gone :)

To move to the next folder, close preview, and return to the 'finder' window.
