Hey buddy,
It would be easier on you if you shot RAW, but seeing as you didn't - you are still able to fix it. Go into photoshop and play with the temperature levels, tinting and saturation or your photos, and find the right level where the photos are "normal".

Yo,
I got stuck into the situation of whether to purchase the Sigma 70-200 F2.8 or the Pentax 50-135 F2.8 - It came down to me as to which one would be more practical and offered the image quality that I wanted. I asked my local shop to put a the Sigma on hold for me, but they got a backorder until September - and having the reviews that have been wrote on the Sigma lens, I was not to impressed and it did not seem as great as I was hoping. That left me to get the 50-135, and when It came down to it, it was the right choice - the focal length was perfect for me - since it was a practical range, and the image quality was prime. You may want to look into another lens besides the Sigma 70-200.
Best,
Shane

If you really want to get that shot, I suggest that you bring a tripod and shoot that way.

I've done a couple shoots at weddings with my Pentax gear, and also use it for my fashion photography and portrait. I use the K10D along with the battery grip, 24 -60 (sigma), 50-135, and a slave flash unit for the weddings I've done.
Best,
Shane

Hey there,
Its all depending with what company you are letting ship your order. UPS or USPS is known to get you on duties and taxes when coming over the border. I know of people that have used FedEx to ship their items and have gotten away with paying no taxes and duties, aswell - FedEx offers a great price!
Best,

Hi there,
I stronly believe in backing up my photos on an external drive.
I shoot RAW so I keep it at a large capacity and a 500 Gig drive.
Best,

Alright I do understand, so what is the name of that product?
So the cable from the PW would go to the products slot?

I feel so stupid today it is rediculous. Anyways I'm thinking this is the right place to ask.
So today I bought the PocketWizard Plus II and started to hook it up to my hot shoe on my camera. I have the Pentax K100D and getting it onto my camera was fine. What I' am trying to do is set up my Pentax AF 360-FGZ flash externaly off my camera and set up on a light stand. Now I' am pretty sure that the flash does not need its own PocketWizard because it already was allowing me to choose the channels for the PW to be picked up on. So I set the channel on my PW and my flash will not fire.
My question is, how can I set up my PW on my cameras (Pentax K100D) hot shoe to trigger off my flash (Pentax AF 360-FGZ) that is not connected to the camera. The flash does not have an cable slots or anything to hook up to it either, but as I said it shows that I can pick channels on it. Help please!!!
I've misplaced my flash manual and need some help, its very appreciated.
Thanks a lot,
Shane
