Where is HortPark?

I keep original caps and use generic caps. Cathay sells generic caps. Last time a bought a 62mm one from them for $6.

Rest in peace Mr JBJ and condolences to his family.

I have posted twice in this thread, besides this one you are reading: (1) Discussing why people avoided greeting JBJ in a public place - afraid of potentially breaking the law. (2) Discussing why some forum rules are made - afraid again of potentially breaking the law. Granted these are not...

While the moderator has every right to enforce the rules of the forum, there is one question worth asking. Are some rules made arising from the kind of "afraid" mentioned in the message below? Enough said; will shut up for now.

There was no Speaker's Corner in those days. Showing support to JBJ is one thing. Being potentially filmed or video-taped with JBJ in a group of more than 3 (or 5 , can't remember) persons in a public place without police permit is another thing. Besides self-reflection, what else to reflect on?

The Pentax Optio Z10 (7x optical zoom, 8M pixel) goes for $199. Is it any good?

Walked past OP in Sim Lim this Sunday afternoon. Saw these Pentax camera boxes on the shelf: 3 x k20D 1 x k200D 1 x k100D Super Did not ask and thus can't tell their prices.

I use KUSO EXIF Viewer to check the shutter count of my K10D. How do other users check theirs?

Here is the link found in a HK Pentax forum. http://www.editgrid.com/user/johnlone/pentax_price_list.html Besides the prices of Pentax DSLR, lens and accessories, the list also contains prices of Sigma and Tamron lens for Pentax. Just note the DA pancake lens prices (Apr 2008): DA 21mm...

When I went to OP (Sim Lim Sq) in early Mar 08, the Pentax FA31 Limited was selling for $1250. I got a good copy of the Sigma 30mm/f1.4 for $620. OP offered a one-for-one exchange within 10 days of purchase. I was quite pleased with this service. This Sigma 30mm/f1.4 when fully open is very...

This is exactly what I think. See my post above. I am still waiting for someone who has a GX10 serviced by Samsung SG Centre to share his view whether Samsung SG is capable to handle dSLR or not.

IIRC, there is a hacked version of 1.1 (h1.1). So people can upgrade all the way to version 1.3 (v1.3). When you need the debug menu of version 1.1 for FF or BF of your lens, you load this h1.1. Do your lens adjustment using the debug menu. When you are done, just re-load v1.3...

There may be minor differences between Pentax k20D and Samsung GX20, such as firmware, RAW file (Samsung has DNG and no PEF), and bundled software etc. But for majority of newbies, these differences do not matter much. However, there is one major difference worth consideration. This is the...

vPost is using a weight-cum-volume formula to calculate shipping charge. But you do not know how Amazon will pack your purchased items. Sometimes it is compact and sometimes it is bulk. If the latter, then your vPost shipping fee will shoot sky high!!!

In case any new Pentax user is interested, there is quite a good ebook called An Introduction to SilkyPix Developer Studio v3. It costs UKP2.50 or SGD7.50. SilkyPix (SP) is the big brother of Pentax Photo Lab (PPL) that comes with your camera CD. I find the interface of SP is much more user...

Sorry to dig up this old thread. In case any new Silkypix user is interested, there is quite a good ebook called An Introduction to SilkyPix Developer Studio v3. It costs UKP2.50 or SGD7.50.

Saw it at Mustafa lunch time today. k100d super with kit 18-55mm lens costs $878. I saw 3 on the shelf.

I have just received my International Warranty Cards (1 for body and 1 for lens) from Pentax USA. Both cards are stamped by Pentax Imaging USA. But the cards commence from the date of purchase for 1 year and not the date of issue of the cards which is later.
