Win a Pentax Limited Lens: Raffle Now Live!

**blackcloudbrew** · 06-01-2011, 02:05 PM

I'm in too. Using my old Tokina 28-70 (macro) lens (manual focus) this month. I wanted a lens that I've really never used much and something (well just about anything) lighter than the Tamron 70-200 I lugged around last month. I'm either going to discover that this lens is a forgotten jewel or it'll be sold off in July.

Oh, we might want to edit the rules to indicate that this is single in june.

Thanks for getting this party started!

I extol all to join this month long adventure.
Single in,,, is the best experience to learn about your lens and camera. Meet follow members and learn about their surroundings.
And to boot others on PF can learn from your images in years to come.
Just JOIN.
It is well worth it.

I'm looking forward to this one Jeff. This is the one "must-have" lens left on my list at this time.

I'm not joining, but I guess you know that by now.
Good luck guys, still have to check out the shots of May.

Day 3 ramblings....

I had a mixed day yesterday.
I finally got out, found a nice interesting place to take some photos (nature and street shot).
At the end of the shoot, while doing some digital developing, I realised every shot I took with my K-7 was taken at around 1/80 to 1/125 sec, right where the K-7 shutter-blur problem occurs.
I had forgotten about this problem since using the K-5 for the last few months.
I had about 80 unusable shots by the end of my shoot, and wasted a couple of hours.

Oh well. You live and learn, that's what the challenge is all about.

I'm having problems getting my images so that other members can click on them, get to flickr and type comments. I've never used flickr this way. Any ideas what I might check in flickr settings that allow someone to leave comments?

You should be able to open the photo you want to share and edit owner settings to allow anyone to see it. That way you can selectively determine the settings for any photo you may upload.

I'll be sitting out this month but I'll try to keep up with what's going on. I just have too much going on. The phone and electric crews got my street straightened out so at least I have my internet back full time now.
