Well the cotton fabric is not waterproof but all the other materials are so water won't get inside the bag.

Incase anyone is interested this is the adorable camera bag I bought!




I got it from Quality Handmade Bags by Martilena on Etsy

They are customized so I got to pick my own fabric.

I was trying to take pictures at night last week I was at my friends house in the driveway. It was not pitch black the porch lights were on, as well as some on the garage. MY friends wanted me to take a picture of them. My k-x would not take a picture the flash just kept charging. Is it because I had it on Auto focus? Anything I can adjust? I don't want this to occur when I go on vacation.

Thanks for the replies. These all seem nice and I will probably end up getting a bag like one of these but...I would really like to get a cute camera bag for girls. I have found I few that I love that look just like purses except they cost like 100 to 200 dollars. So ladies if you have any cute camera bags that are a reasonable price please share.

Hi I am going on vacation and am looking for a camera bag, I need it to fit my my camera and my lenses the Pentax 55-300mm and the standard 18-55mm lens. I would like it to be as small as possible while still being able to fit everything while keeping it safe. I will be in Disney so I will be going on rides with it, there is also rains alot in August so I would like it to be water proof! Any one have any recommendations?

Do you know what I am supposed to click after. The Random Noise reduction check box and slider are not click-able? Am I supposed to press something different?

I am trying to use this to get rid of some noise I have in the background of one of my pics. The picture is in Jpg format but when I click on the tab that says noise reduction it comes up but it won't let me edit anything. Does anyone know how to do this?

I was taking some pictures outside today. I tried to take a picture with camera and lens pointing down towards a flower it would auto focus but when I tried to press the shutter button nothing happened...it would not take the pic? This also happened inside a couple times but, the camera was upright then? What I am I doing wrong.

Thanks I went outside and took some pics of flowers and see how it changes in different lights. I nwas able to get the exposure to 0(is that what the little meter is from -3 to 3?) while outside. But while in my living room I can not get it off of -3.


I am trying to post some photos to show you guys but they are not showing upon photobucket? Can you not upload RAW photos to photobucket?

I just got my Pentax k-x to day. I have a 18-55mm and 55-300mm lenses. I was trying to take pictures in my house today which has fairly low light. I feel so frustrated when the shots don't come out. :fedup: I feel like I have wasted my money and am never gunna figure this stuff out.

Can some one please give me some suggestions for indoor shots. Please be as in depth as possible I am so confused!! :(

Some other dumb questions:
How do you set exposure? I saw something on another post about af-s? where do I find this? and How do you change aperture?

I am going to finish reading the manual tonight.
