I haven't given up hope but, like those who moved on to other brands
because the Pentax full frame took so long to develop, I've invested in
m43 because of Pentax/Ricoh not getting serious about mirrorless.  That
wont necessarily stop me buying a Pentax mirrorless if a competitive one
turns up, but it's just taking so bloody long.  The K-01 and Q came out
over 4 years ago so it's not as if they don't know how to build one.

Re: Pentax KP??

[Paul Stenquist]

Most "classic" Pentax lens optics show serious fringing on DSLRs. The new 
lenses are far better. Some primes would be fun, but zoom technology has 
advanced to the point where developing primes is somewhat impractical. I 
suspect that the D FA 150-450 is superior to any 300 or 400 mm prime Pentax 
ever made, and I wouldn't be surprised to find that the D FA 15-30 is better 
than any of the old Pentax wide primes.

I wonder if there will be a K-mount adapter? With aperture simulator…
(I don’t really care except in terms of I would like to see the brand maintain

That's because the k-1 was in development for far longer than the k-3.
To be perfectly honest the k-3's USB speed is hardly much faster than
USB2 anyways.

Ok, fair enough ...

Hi all

I have decided to channel my inner David Savage and have started
taking weekly drawing classes. I have come at the end of the fall
classes but will start the winter in a fw weeks. The instructor
suggested i start off using what some of the other students are doing
and use the grid system, especially since i want  to work on my
perspective. I am using prints from some of my old building shots.

My problem is this. I have several pictures that printed out 4 3/4" x
7" and i want to draw it onto an 8x10 frame in my sketch book. I have
looked through google but most of the info shows how to double or half
the picture not how to do the odd sizes I;m horrible at this part of
mathematics, but, can someone suggest a google page or math page??so i
can work out the ratio

Dave



You don't need to do any complicated math to figure out what will fit.

4 3/4" x 7" is not the same ratio as 8" x 10", so the drawing will be a
cropped image. You just have to decide where to crop it.

Try marking out a 1/4 inch grid on a piece of clear acetate for an
overlay. That should give you 19 x 28 grid squares over your image.

Using a heavier marker or a different color, mark a frame of 16 grid
squares x 20 grid squares on your overlay.

That will show you what is inside the 8x10 "frame" if you double the
size by using a half inch grid in your drawing. It will also allow you
to decide where to best crop the image to fit your drawing frame.

If you use permanent pens for the 1/4 inch grids (or buy an already made
grid from an artist's supply shop), you can use alcohol (erasable) pens
for marking out different frames on it.

You can use a 3/4" grid in your drawing to triple the size or 1" grid to
quadruple it.

Re: Pentax KP??

[Collin B]

If Pentax can be the one to get WiFi (& maybe Bluetooth) done right, what a
coup!

Let's have 802.11ac speed & multi-point Bluetooth. 
Add to this a wifi/bt ssd in your pocket to receive the images from the
camera.
And a nice dashboard tether.
And ... why not just add another processor for handling I/O, along with
another battery for its consumption.

I offered my design/development services a few years ago but never heard
back ...

Re: Pentax KP??

[P. J. Alling]

Interesting, Pentax, (well Ricoh I guess), has so made such a hash of 
it's naming convention that I can't even guess if it's a successor to 
the K-7/5/3 line or a successor to the K-30/50/70 or something out of 
left field like the K-S1.  I say that they've done this to build buzz 
and keep us guessing but I don't think Pentax plans that far ahead.

Six from my nautical adventure

[Bipin Gupta]

Those water taxi shots were very well composed & shot Ann.
The empty benches and the trees tell a beautiful story.

I always shoot in rapid fire mode from my K-5 IIs while on a boat.
This ensures at least one shot will be sharp & well focused in the middle.
Perhaps AF-C may also help.

Regards.
Bipin.
