Aren't 1/125x sync and B considered mechanical shutter speeds? I believe no batteries are needed for those.

Thanks,

What guy did you have to come in to create your custom pastels for $1,000? They look great! Wonderful creativity. Cheers.

Hey guys,
I just got a K200d (had a K100d Super before) and was wondering if you have any suggestions on the settings (saturation, contrast, etc.). Thanks.

Set the jpegs to Natural instead of the default Bright. Why this wasn´t the default setting for this camera I´ll never know.

Does anybody know why the Super A only was made in black and the Super Program only in chrome/black? A bit strange I think. I use a Super Program which I bought on Ebay from the US for negative film and a Super A for slides, just to have 2 cameras that look different.

Still have my *ist DS, just bought a KM/2000.

I find that at night inside I cant use the autopixt mode. The shutter speed comes right down to 1/5 sec, eventhough SR is on, the photos never come out sharp.

You would think in this mode that it would enable handheld photos, by coming down to1/60 only.

Any ideas on the best way to take inside photos at night using the internal flash, and getting sharp photos. Never had this problem on my DS

Wow, that is a great effect. And indeed, duplicating that in Photoshop would definately take a while...

i just bought a k10d off of a friend and they did not give me the user manual with it. I've just been messing around with the camera and have recently come upon an error message reading "F--" Can anyone help me fix this problem?

This post should be in the discussion forum, but check camera settings, type of lens (if attached) and contacts.
