I have owned 3 different Q cameras and all have suffered from the "washout" effect when using this setting. I have tried different settings to no avail and need help from my cohorts. Thanks in advance, schmally

Sorry to have given the wrong impression of myself. I really appreciate this forum and due to other "life" responsibilities I have been absent for approx. six months. Upon my return, I seem to have been sensitized to this person who answers in a rude and somewhat condescending manner. My surprise at his needless response caused an unnecessary reaction. Please accept my sincere apology. I have multiple degrees in the sciences and do see some promise in his thought processes!

After six anxious weeks my K-7 outfit arrived yesterday at my local camera shop- I love it so far! But, how do you load a 190 battery into the grip? I see the AA trays but can not figure out the other. Thanks for your help. Schmally

Alex,
Your unwavering enthusiasm and promotion of the X70 convinced me to return a long waited on, Pana. LX3 to the store and am now waiting on my X70. Thank you for your time and effort and Pentax should send you a check for being their #1 ambassador!!!

This is one of 10 lenses plus a K20D that I purchased in a "fog and frenzy"!! I have sold 3 and wish to sell this one to finance a Pentax DA 300mm. I purchased this at a local dealer and know that I paid more then I am asking. This lens has not been used and has all papers etc. I am asking 425.00 + 10.00 shipping in USA. This offer will probably be rescinded on thursday 6/19/08 as I find it just as easy to trade for the 300DA. Thanks. Schmally

Thanks to the marketplace for making the process so painless!!! I was able to help a young photographer to buy a lens and you allowed me to do it all by myself!! What a wonderful forum in general. Thanks again. Pat

I have been in terminal LBA for the past 2 months!!! Just purchased this lens, used at most twice. I've decided to go entirely with pentax glass (new to brand). Please make me your personal best offer (no price jockeys need to apply) and agree to pay shipping and we'll have serious business to transact!! I like to help those who are serious about photography but short on funds.

Guys,
I sent it back today due to my "love" for the limiteds that I got yesterday. I am replacing it with a 21mm Pentax. I never really even gave the Tammy an honest chance. Sorry for any anticipated photos that I did not deliver. schmally

The weather is atrocious here with clouds and much rain. I have taken a few exploratory shots and it is very sharp and the colors are accurate. We are in another downpour for the next 36 hours. I can say that I am having a "lensathon" sensory overload!! I just picked up a 40 and 70 limited so that I will have some reference point to share. If you are thinking of the Tamron , I would not hesitate buying it. My Pentax dealer thinks it is worthy and gives it a thumbs up. schmally

I have made friends and received excellent advice thus far during my short association with the "fora". (ol' bio. teacher) I have purchased a K20D, 40ltd.,70ltd., 16 zenitar, 500mm opteka, 100mm macro. phoenix, 70-300 tamron, and a 1.5 ext. kenko in the past month!!!!! I sold all of my 15yr. collection of minolta film equip. to finance my "submersion" into the Pentax community. I would like to ask all of you what ideas or suggestions you may have to "complete" my mini collection to augment my wide angle lens LBA. All ideas will be meticulously and secretly studied. My wife still thinks I only have one pistol too!!. Really enjoy reading and learning from each posting. Please keep keep up the awesome work. Hey Sailor- we finally see some sun today!! 12" of rain in 24 hours! Schmally
