Question Lens sample photo archive for FF?

micromacro · 05-27-2016, 04:57 AM

Right now the pictures taken with lenses on K-1 are spread all around, and it's hard to check on specific lens specifically on Pentax FF.
How about to have sample archive separate for lenses on Pentax FF?

That is ready to go in the Lens Sample Photo Archive, for manual lenses on K-1. Members need only start a thread with each manual lens and the Moderator will add the new thread to an Index. Once the thread is created and Indexed samples can be added by any member. Of course, with K-1 only in our hands for about three weeks this is a work in progress.

Images from Automatic lenses (F and newer) on K-1 are indexed and searchable over the entire Forum using the Lens and Camera Sample Photo Search Engine. A search creates an array of clickable thumbnails linked to the image wherever it is posted in the Forum.

I requested tags to specify FF or APS-C but no one wanted that. It is a key feature imo..

Isn't this effectively accomplished through monochrome's separate threads for full frame photos?

How do I set up a table in a post. Since monochrome has not maintained the index, I was thinking to merge the index for the archive with that for the full frame index. I would take the existing archive, put it in a 3 column table, with a column for the lens description, a column for the general archive links and a column for the full frame links

I have tried copying the formatting used by lary (crewl) for the Q samples but it does not seem to work for me. I would do most of the cut paste etc in a text editor

I have to admit that I've never used photo archive search engine before.
It really helps, but with K, M, or M42 lenses is not helpful to figure out which manual lens has been used.
