Hi Guys
Just purchased a second hand Pentax Q10 and I cant change the mode dial off Auto.
Been through manual and online to see if there is a locking mechanism or anything else stopping it from moving. Unless I'm missing something.
Any advise would be great.
Uploaded a picture taken this afternoon on auto.

Thanks Des
I was looking at that lens but he was selling it as a kit with K5 plus 2 lenses for $800 on facebook, then started to sell them off individually as he had with no response as a package. I wasn't sure what I should be looking at - that's when I found this site looking at reviews. Des your advice has been invaluable.
I shoot in Raw - learnt that one real quick.
My first real shot with the new lens at the start of yesterdays storms brewing overhead. Couldn't get out due to working.
Will look into the 50mm lens.

Thanks Guys for the info, Internet keeps dropping out, grr technology.
Des stop teasing me! Today arrived my new lens - I really don't know why I didn't do it earlier. Just taking snaps of the Family Day Care kids - already notice a difference.
So thanks for the info guys I appreciate it!

Des you have just made my life easier, I have been pondering over lenses now for weeks and weeks, you have given me some great info to think about.
I don't get out much as my husband is fighting cancer and my daughter has chronic back pain so I am not getting out as much as I would like on top of working, hospitals and doctors. Yes money is limited and I thought that getting new lenses would be a better option before a new camera body- I have 2 k20d's, Just needed some guidance too what!
Yeah the 300 is 4.5-6.7 - don't use it much now as I'm coaching football instead of watching my daughter play.
I have my eye on the PENTAX 16-45mm. I would like to go better but funds are limited at the moment. I am aiming 1 new lens each quarter. That's the plan anyway.

Yes first time shooting the Rotunda, been living here 20 years and only got to it the other day. hmm need more time in the day.

I am looking forward to the prom, hoping to get some great shots. Last time I was at the Prom I was doing work experience and walked the south, west and half of the north coast measuring tracks in the week I was there, missed out seeing the lighthouse by "that much"!.

Thanks for the Welcome Guys,
I have the kit lenses- sigma 18-50mm, sigma 55-200mm and purchased sigma 100-300mm for sport.
I have no real idea what I am looking for- Des your shots are what I plan to do- I have started four wheel driving and love the bush and heading off on a weekend shoot with Facebook group in Feb to Wilson's Prom.
I have put the manual on the computer and Ipad and refer to it constantly.
I took this photo playing around last week of a park in my home town- Sigma 18-50mm

G'day all
I'm Dianna from country Victoria. I stumbled across this site yesterday researching lenses! Great site!
I have had a K20d for many many years now and only in the past 12-16 months have I truly started to use and understand the camera. I joined up to a local Facebook group and do outings with them - I'm the only Pentax user in the group of over 400.
I bought it mainly to use to photograph my daughter playing AFL football out in the weather -took her first mark with it on a cold misty morning the week I bought it over 6 years ago, had no idea what I was doing!
I am hoping to gain even more knowledge through you guys. By the end of the year I am hoping to purchase a K-3, here in Aus at the moment they are still at $1100 plus for body only but I am looking to purchase a new wide angle lens in the next few weeks any suggestions?
Enough about me - out to shoot some old Holden Cars today.
Have a great day!

Cheers Dianna
