Hmm. I guess I'm using the wrong exposure mode, but I always seem to get
severely blown highlights when I try to shoot them. The last time I
tried, I set exposure compensation at -1 and /still/ managed to get some
blown highlights.
I may have had it set to spot metering.

You probably have the four-way in focus point adjust mode. Hold the okay button
down for a few seconds. That should send it back to the control mode. If you
want to go back to focus point adjust mode, hold it down again for a couple of

I went ahead and set up my K-x to display the histogram and light/dark
regions, though I do typically do try to under-expose to be on the safe
side, and partly because I tend to prefer deeper shadows in my images at
the risk of losing of some detail.
It's a quirk.
Thanks for the input!

The snow's gone but the fields are just not quite ready (despite the
unseasonably warm temperatures) to don their spring colours just yet.
That is beautiful photo! Compelling composition.

Cool shots. The last one is indeed a good photo but I don't feel too good about
the rendering. Just doesn't feel right to me, almost artificial (my words
fail me just now).

Hi all,
Rather than hang out with friends and drink beer today, I decided to
take the K-x out for a stroll. I actually used something besides my
A-50/1.7 or K 50/1.4, believe it or not. This time, I used my crusty
old Tokina SZ-X 28-200 f/3.5-5.3.

My eyeball-based deconvolution algorithm says K-z.
I don't care what they call it but a K-r with 16 MP?
I'm interested.

I don't think that the new electronic shutter/mirror designs allow for a

They've managed to find a way to keep the mirror up for sensor
cleaning, live view, and video... Adding a catch to keep the mirror
up is not a major ordeal.

I'm surprised you couldn't just have some mechanical catch that holds it up.
just build a special shelf into those new short-throw lens bodies ...

I noticed that mirror slap was much quieter with the MZ-3 and ZX-5n.
and while those mirrors were a bit smaller than the LX mirror they
weren't all that much smaller. The *ist-D seemed to use the same
mirror box reflex mirror assembly that the MZ/ZX series film camera used.

I know a lot of PDMLers use Posterous, so you probably got (or will
get) the same email that I just did informing you that Posterous has
been acquired by Twitter. Not sure what they have in mind, but the
Acquisition FAQ only says that ample time will be given of any
service or terms changes.

Mirror Slap would be an excellent name for a band, especially one made
up of guys old enough to actually remember what mirror slap was.
When this 52 year old looks in the mirror in the morning, it is
definitely a mirror slap.

All those methods use power, which is sucked out of the battery. Larry
want's a passive mechanical lockup. I understand why, I just don't
think it's likely given that it would probably require a complete
redesign of the mirror/shutter mechanism. Electronic lockup, as you've
noticed, is
