Thank you all for your advice. I will try it out. I took these pics on my roof. At night its pretty dark (not many street lights) so i thought it wouldn't be a problem. Also living in the tropics I don't think it would fog up or something like that. I might try the beach thing and see. Thanks again.

Hi,

I got the Pentax K1 and I was using the Rokinon 14mm wide angle lens with the astrotracer function. ISO was set at 400. But even with lower ISOs I still get this weird green thing in the pictures and I don't know what they are. I even tried the 31mm limited and same thing. Even at low ISOs.

How can I fix this problem please? I really want to take night photos. I've attached a photo showing what I mean. This one was at ISO 400 with a 2:50minute exposure time using astrotracer and the 14mm wide angle lens. I don't get these problems shooting anything else such as people, landscape etc. and my sensor is clean.

Thank you.

Three blinking lines/dots in K-5IIs viewfinder

Hi,

I recently got a lightly used K-5IIs and I notice every now and then when looking through the viewfinder I see 3 blinking lines/dots (where the electronic level display/exposure is). Does anybody know what that means? When I disable the electronic level I do not see it anymore. I thought it was to tell me the camera is level but sometimes when it is level I just see 1 line/dot in the middle and other times it is those 3 blinking lines (1 at each end of the meter and 1 in the middle). I don't know if it has to do with exposure or low light? Thank you.

Hello all,

I've been looking at this site for the last few days to help me learn more about my new camera (K-3) and photography in general so I thought I'd sign up :).
Little about me: I'm 31 and work in the field of medicine by day but I want to learn about photography (and astrophotography) to take advantage of our unpolluted, dark skies we have on this little island. This is my first DSLR purchase and I decided to go with Pentax! I look forward to communicating with you in the near future. Thanks.
