    Merry Christmas from Long Beach Island, NJ

    FIRST SNOWFALL LONG BEACH ISLAND, NJ

    The title says it all. First: NO PICTURES (YET)! We live on a summer resort barrier island. Not many people here off season. Snow is not rare here, but the last several years we have had none, or very little. So today we got about 4" to 5". I dislike driving in snow, but I love doing photography...

    Fun with Sony Cameras 2024

    Two extremes: One image made with 12~24mm lens, other made with 400mm lens, hand held at 1/60 sec f13. Both the lens and camera body have image stabilization. The hand held 400mm shot is razor sharp when blown up on screen at actual size. Modern technology is amazing. Dave in NJ

    Fringer Pentax P645-GFX auto focus adapter

    I just received the adapter, have not tried it yet. The user manual (small as it is) recommends NOT allowing the camera to select the shutter speed. I am a seascape/landscape guy and usually shoot at f11 to f16. I mostly use Aperture Preferred Automatic on the camera. I set the F stop, select...

    Pentax 645 auto focus lenses adapted to GFX 100S

    I use DXO Photolab 8 to process my raw images. One of its features is that it has modules to automatically correct lens flaws such as pin cushion, barrel distortion ( or combinations of these). I purchased a Pentax FA 400 mm lens to use on my GFX 100S that I will use with a Fringer auto focus...

    Anyone own the Pentax 645 FA 300mm f5.6 lens - need dimensions

    I just ordered a used lens from Japan and it will ship to NJ. In advance of it getting here can anyone measure the lens barrel diameter near the mount? I would like to retrofit a third party or another lens maker's rotating tripod collar. I will be using this lens with a Fringer auto focus...

    Anyone Using Ipower for web site hosting?

    I am very happy to report my web site is now "SAFE". Also my web site email now works (no thanks to Ipage). I FINALLY got to Instant Chat by doing the following: I went to the Financial Section, changed from automatic billing, and deleted my Credit Card on file with them. Their site kept warning...

    Anyone Using Ipower for web site hosting?

    A month ago I received a notice my web site was not secure. Apparently Ipower (I have been with them for many years) sold to Ipage. I paid $112.35 on Sept 21 to ipage to have it made secure (it gets http// added to the site apparently). I was OK until today, and now if you try to go to my site...
