This is my first attempt at taking pictures with my "new to me" camera. I have been reading and learning a lot, but a lot is way over my head. Any advice is very much appreciated.

Printing photos from DSLR.....

Initially I shot on RAW. Then to test I shot on jpeg (6mp). Both had the same problems when printing. My ink levels are all 1/2 full on the printer. I may try to clean the heads and try again to see if any of the ink heads are clogged. The pictures on the monitor look identical to the ones on the screen of the LCD when reviewing the pictures.

I will post the settings on the camera once I get home. Thanks again for all of your help.

Well I got some really good shots this week taking my kids to the zoo. I am trying to print a few of the photos and when I do, the colors are WAY off. Whites and grays are pink, everything has an orange hue to it; the photos look nice on the screen of the DSLR but the colors are all out of whack when printed. I have an Epson Stylus Photo R200 printer. Is it a setting on my computer (using Picasa), my printer or DSLR? HELP PLEASE!!!!!!

I am interested in the flash, possibly. I am a beginner looking for an external flash. Most ofthe pictures will be landscapes and portrait style of my kids. Do you think this flash will be good enough; not looking for anything professional but definitely something servicable.

Thanks,
Shawn

*ist DL questions....

I have the *ist DL. When playing around with it today, I had it set to auto flash. In low light conditions, it says the internal flash is supposed to pop up automatically and discharge. Unless I push the flash up button, it does not work. Basically, I have yet to have this camera "pop-up" the flash without manually pushing the flash up button.

Also, I have a 4g SDHC memory card. I was reading somewhere that I needed a firmware upgrade but cannot confirm this or find where the upgrade would be. Can anyone confirm whether or not I need the firware upgrade to use this type of card and if so, where do i find it?

Thanks in advance,
Shawn

Newb question.....

Thanks so much for taking the time to reply and explain things to me. Are there any cheaper lenses that you would recommend to a newb like me? Keep in mind, I am very new to this and don't want / need the best available; just something for the "weekend warrior". I only paid $280 for the camera and lens so I am looking to keep it relatively inexpensive and easy to use. Thakns again.

OK, Thanks. I have read about aftermarket adapters. Is there one available to make an "MC mount" lens compatible?

I have just received the Pentax *ist DL DSLR camera for a birthday gift from my wife. She got it at a really good price knowing that it is just something that I have wanted to get into for awile. I am really excited and will probably take a class this summer to learn fully how to use it. It came with a lens.

My question is that I have an old 35mm minolta camera with some zoom lenses and was wondering if these would be compatible with my new camera. Everyone I speak with says that they are not allowed to comment on lens comaptability (isn't that waht customer support is for?). It is an Albinar - ADG 80-200mm lens. On the front it says MC AUTO ZOOM MACRO. I know it's a cheap lens, but don't want to sink a lot of money into buying a new one until I learn how to properly use this thing.

Thanks in advance for all the help.

Take Care,
Shawn
