Okay, here's a strange request.
Was out shooting the other day. I very religiously avoid using flash,
but this particular instance I wanted a flash.
Nothing major, in fact, the smaller the better.
And I remembered years and years ago, I purchased a tiny Vivitar flash
from Wal-Mart for like $20.

I'm going to have to find out more about the Metz 58AF2. The website

about the strobe effect modelling light, but the word permanent

There's an ad on CL for a Super ME and four lenses. I'd be interested

I can post some pictures if you want, taken with the 28/1.8. The nice
things about those is the very very close focussing distance (hence
'macro') which combined with the f/1.8 renders so
ugh it seemed ok.
It may not be as fast as I like at the long end, but I'm mostly

I agree. I love my 31/1.8 LTD which is not really wide but definitely
fast and pretty sharp even wide open. The 20/1.8 would have some

Larry, the fastest widest lens you can buy for K mount is Sigma
20/1.8. I am thinking that anything else starts at f/2.8. I am
thinking that likes of DA 21 and DA 15 might be good options for you

I keep finding myself "needing" a lens that is wide, fast and
preferably reasonably sharp. Pretty much all I have wider than 31 are
my 18-55 and my 18-250. I'm thinking of diverting some of the money
from selling my racecar to buying glass.
I think that the ideal lens would be a 16-50, and I keep
Hi all,
I'm currently writing a series of school-type articles, to be published by
an Italian photo magazine.
Since I'm not so strong in some types of photography (you choose which ones

Perhaps it will come with the strap. I always sell my used cameras
with all the original equipment in the original box. I think I get a
better price that way. And since I don't use the Pentax straps (I use
the Tamrac straps that clip on), the OE straps look brand new at sale
time.

My neighbor asked me for camera advice and should be getting her K100D
in the mail tomorrow.
But I forgot to tell her to order a camera strap to go with it, and I
don't have any spares.
I'm wondering if anyone here has a spare camera strap they'd be
willing to part with inexpensively?
Thanks.

I'm a fan of my Optio Z10 (old stock only available) which has a
"Digital Wide Mode" allowing you to take two overlapping vertically
composed pictures and stitches them together in-camera for a 28mm
equiv. lens. Works very well, and the camera is small, no lens to poke
out (internal optical
Hi Thibouille,
While shopping for a small P&S with WA lens, I came across the Canon
Powershot SD880. This camera starts at 28mm, has 3-inch screen w/out
OVF, has image stabilization, and costs approx USD250. Small,
pocketable form factor of the SD line made it attractive for me, but I
bought the
SR should be a nice bonus.
The thing is for my mother, not for me. Screen is obviously more
important than any kind of OVF or EVF =)
I saw the Lumix FX37 but it seems European Service fr Panasonic is as
good as it was non-existent (according to my trusted usual dealer).
Pentax has P70 which seems

ended up chasing my tail. That's why I stick
to pan/tilt heads.

Thanks Godfrey - that will help a lot.
I looked at the Manfrotto 190Pro series. Very nice and would do what I
want. However the cost of even the aluminium version with pan head is
probably more than I can justify - unless I can't find anything suitable
for less money.
Thanks also for the other
