Re: OT: (or not OT:) process vs. outcome

For my work I used slide rules until the period of HP calculators. Now I'm using an excellent HP41C simulator on my android phone. Henk Op 2021-03-28 om 20:25 schreef Larry Colen: On Mar 28, 2021, at 11:19 AM, Alan C wrote: In my youth I was a Whizz kid with a slide rule. Took over my

Very nice bird pics! On cropping: I recall a video of Northrup saying that a 36 MP FF sensor in crop mode results in 16 MP, so it is better to use a modern APS-C camera with a crop lens. Henk Op 2021-03-11 om 02:51 schreef Larry Colen: TLDR; my guess is that the 150-450 would do no

, same as a K5. Surprised they didn't go for something like 24Mp. As you say, all the newer APS-C models have more Mp. However, I must say I find the 16Mp of the K5 to be quite adequate. Alan C On 11-Mar-21 05:59 PM, Henk Terhell wrote: Very nice bird pics! On cropping: I recall a video

There are definitely some threads at Pentax Forums devoted to this issue and even instructions how to replace the solenoid yourself. How to detect this issue: https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/193-pentax-k-70/402049-how-detect-aperture-block-failure-stuck-solenoid-pentax-k-70-a.html Henk Op

Re: OT Covid stuff

Still one week to go before having my first Pfizer. Have to drive 55 km to the vaccination location. Silly organization: my wife doesn't yet get it because she is one and a half year younger than me. This means we have to go there 4 times. AstraZeneca is not vaccinated here to people above 65

Re: online photo storage platforms reviewed

Alan, you do keep your important stuff on Flickr as well. Also for me Flickr is the main cloud storage having over 8000 pics at full res in jpg, with a lot of family pics hidden. Further I keep my scanned old familiy pics on onedrive 1 TB cloud storage. All my RAW files are stored on a 6TB USB

Ann, that is positive news for  negative testing! We were starting rather late here with the vaccination. Perhaps I get my first shot before the end of this month, possibly before the  EU approves the Sputnik vaccin! Henk Op 2021-03-04 om 17:54 schreef ann sanfedele: Those of you who are on

Re: User Modes

User modes are very *useful*, I've learned. The most used one by me on the K-1 is the scenario with the tripod and live view: Av F11, ISO 100, focus single point select, remote control, 3 seconds timer, center exposure. This is a perfect starting point for landscape and close-ups and I can

Re: Autofocus settings

On the K-1 I use for handheld shots  AFS single spot with back focus button. For butterflies and damselflies in flight often manual focus because the Pentax AF is not fast/accurate enough. For landscape on tripod in Live View (tilted screen!) in Select mode to get more area to focus on. For
