Thanks guy's, I must admit moving the screen is the logical way to view the images at a better angle.
The histogram I generally use but its just that thing when it just doesn't seem right. Guess I'll have to live with it and stop lowering my seat height.

Thank for the responses

Hi,
I use a laptop to edit and view my images. I find it difficult to know if the images are over or under exposed by just looking at the screen. If I move the screen up and down the image changes.
I am looking at get a seperate screen to view the images and piggy back of the laptop.
Any suggestions welcome.

Manual lens as default for your DSLR

Hi Guy's,
I have several AF lenses and find that I may as well be using a point and shoot. I must admit I find it challenging using MF lenses but it adds to the image when you get that one that really stands out.

I mainly use a M50 f1.4 on Kx, light and clear images.

Thanks Adam & Clark,
I was actually more interested in getting the focus and depth correct with using this lense. The softness part I have to work on and composition.
I appreciate the comments, critisism as it will only increase my awareness to minor issues.
My cat actually sits in an alcove 12"x12" to watch birds outside my studies window, unnatural & awkward position most definitely.

Thanks again.

Hi,
I purchased a pentax M50 f1.4 a while back and have been constantly trying to use the lens without getting any camera shake and correct focusing.
I know, practice,practice and more practice.

I took these images of our cat and would appreciate any CC.

Both have only had minor adjustments in LR.

Thanks in advance.

PENTAX Digital Camera Utility 4 Updated!

Hi Pentaxian210,
I believe you guy's in the states can purchase a SD WiFi card that will send the images to a computer/laptop and into the auto import for lightroom. You should then be able to view them directly. I don't know the time it takes but If you can't tether directly that may be the next option.

I live in Australia and they don't ship the cards outside the states from my attempts to purchase but would also like to hear from anyone that actually uses the card.

Hope this helps.

SD WI-FI Cards

Hi,
Has anyone used or tried the SD WiFi card. I have read some details on the card but unfortunately they don't ship to Australia. I'm mainly interested in the card as I carry my laptop with me and that has WiFi connectivity. I thought that due to my poor eyesight it would assist in transfering the images directly into Lightroom via Auto import. As an owner of a Kx it can't be tethered to the laptop so looking for alternate idea.

All ideas welcome.

Hi Jord,
I have been looking at a web site on Oyako day which means parent child. I guy buy the name of Bruce Osborn started this several years ago, taking picks of families on one day special for japanese families. Check his site out this would be a great idea for what you want to do.
Set up an area and attract families to come and have photo taken.

What ever you get is better than nothing it only takes on accidental bump on a sharp edge and it can crack the sceen. I didn't use one on my previous screen and ended up with a 15mm deep scratch that became very annoying.

Cover up
