I always carry a large white plastic sack folded in my photo bag outside

Focal length is focal length. Don't get hung up on the relative
image size compared to what you get on a 35mm camera.
If the focal length of the lens is 28, set the SR to 28.
According to German CT magazine around 1800 is realistic for the best
flatbed scanners.
None reaches the real resolution of even the cheapest real filmscanner.

70-150mm F 2.8 portrait lens, I'm extremly happy with the first test results
on the K10D
With a KA adaptall2 adapter for A-lens automatic functions I made 2 days ago

The lens is heavy and with
Hi Rick
It's a B + C for me.
With this shot I would have liked ISO400 on a monopod or handheld with a bit
of underexposure and closer to the sign as well.

test shots even after the use of denoising software.

I'm sorry for you Peter but wonder what kind of insurance would cover such
an accident.

your own camera equipment and no third party was involved.

, but i'll be taking that lens to

Hi William
I use a normal 4GB SDHC sandisk card with the K10D and it is slower than
the 2GB sandisk ultra but works fine.

I tested the Pentax M 200mm as well that day and sometimes had to press the

A first sample with the A24mm in low light on the K10D handheld at F 2.8

macro and a monopod soon but still like this one so far.
