Lots of features plus high IQ, but...,
Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Pentax K-r 12.4 MP Digital SLR Camera with 3.0-Inch LCD and 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 and 55-300mm f/4-5.8 Lenses (Black) (Electronics)
--Good news, bad news: As noted below, the k-r takes very good, clean images on full zoom; if the light is right you can read a license plate at 450 yards. But I need to use a CPL, and this is another story. I tried two brands of CPL with the Pentax lens and both resulted in horrendous blur and a "ghost image" familiar to B&W TV viewers of an earlier era. (I've used these same CPLs on other cameras with no problem.) I've found online references to an identical problem with long lenses on Canon, Nikon and other cameras. Other users solved the problem by using a high-end filter (retail $75 up). The k-r is so good in every way that if it needs this kind of pampering I'm willing to do it. RESULT: Problem solved with Tiffen CPL ($72 MSRP, $31 at Amazon). (But my CCD-sensor Fuji S100 gets as good or better IQ on a $7 filter!)
--Garish yellow sky: when shooting a beautiful sunset (Manual mode) the beautiful tones of pink, magenta and pale blue-green were all converted to an ugly cartoony yellow. (There was no yellow in the actual scene.) CPL didn't help. This is another problem that I and others have encountered with a variety of cameras (Canon, Nikon, Pentax), both DSLR and P&S. I have not found a total solution (need another sunset for that) but I presume that changing WB will do the trick. I did try moving the WB up into the GB quadrant a bit; that did not have much effect. Next time I'll try the various lighting settings ("Tungsten" for example makes everything very blue). The catch is, of course, that I don't want to turn everything blue; I just want to get rid of the yellow. I don't want to use the preset Sunset mode, because it takes over control of shutter speed and aperture, making it impossible to catch flying birds against the sun. (Any tips on how to fix this problem will be greatly appreciated!)
I just got the Pentax k-r with the two kit lenses (including the 55-300mm) and have only scratched the surface of what it will do. So far, I have no serious complaints.
I take mostly long-range photos of outdoor action (surfing, breaking waves, seals, flying birds) in high-contrast situations. I need good zoom and decent (at least 4fps at full res, with at least a dozen shots) burst capability. To obtain these, I have tried a number of different cameras, including DSLRs with zoom lenses (Sony A550, Canon T2i) and so-called super-zooms (Lumix FZ100, Fuji HS10, Fuji S100, Sony HX1).
I also own a little Canon D10 (12mp, 3x) waterproof, for in-the-water surfing shots and a Canon SX100 (8mp, 10x), which is pocket-sized if you have big pockets. Neither has any burst worth mentioning.
Two zoom + burst cameras have made the cut: the Fuji S100 and the Pentax k-r. The Fuji has great IQ and a great zoom range (28-400mm equivalent) but the burst is marginal (3.7fps at full res, with a 7 shot limit).
Pentax k-r summary:
The good:
--NEW GOOD: just fired off over 300 shots of waves, surfers, fishing boats, seagulls, cormorants and pelicans in flight, and one squirrel (not in flight), mainly just to see what the camera would do. Never missed a moment. Caught full range of wing motion and positions in flying birds. Long and short bursts, no waiting for write or save. (I use viewfinder, not "live view" and I also use a Class 10 card; maybe that helps.) Even shot a brief test video. And the battery is still holding up. This is a very good camera for action shooting.
--Solid build, right down to the battery compartment door and SDHC door.
--Nice size, not overly heavy in spite of solid build, good ergonomics.
--Dials are firm yet easy to turn.
--Green button can be set to instantly activate a key setting of your choice.
--Great IQ and great glass. I took a lot of pictures of subjects from 500 yards to one mile away at full 300mm zoom. You can enlarge these images until you're seeing pixels; you don't get distortion, CA, or noise.
--Very good controls and menus. All major functions can be changed with one or two pushes of a button or a turn of a dial. Very user friendly.
--If you make changes to default settings (via the Menu), the changed settings are highlighted in yellow in the Menu. Makes it very easy to go into the Menu and see quickly what you've changed. Nice.
--Burst exceeds specs given in manual. At 6fps, full res, I fired bursts of up to 35 JPEG images, at which point the rate slowed but did not stop. (The stated limit is 25 JPEG images). NOTE: I'm using a Class 10 SDHC card; I don't know if that has any effect in this case. Anyone out there have the answer?
TIP: Some setting changes will affect the burst. For example, enabling CA Adjustment will slow the burst somewhat and limit the burst total to 6 or 7 images. The manual (p.211) warns you about the reduction in shooting speed, but they don't tell you about the drastically reduced buffer size! (For the record, I haven't noticed any CA at any focal length, I was just trying out the various functions.)
--LCD is very large and high res. Clear and legible.
--You can use the viewfinder and still have the LCD on. Nice.
--Viewfinder is very good to use, bright and clear. Diopter dial is in a good place.
--Slick features: Multiple exposure, HDR feature, lots of filter effects. I wish some of them were available during shooting, not just PP.
--Shot some pix inside the house, with the zoom lens at 55mm. No flash, hand held, got good results.
The bad:
--UPDATED: The k-r has burst, remote, delay (timer) and exposure bracket shooting. You can't use any of them together. No remote burst, no delayed burst. No remote bracket shots. No long delay with remote (Remote function does have its own 3-second delay option).
--The remote is infrared only (cable can be useful and desirable, which is why Pentax included this option on the higher-end K-7).
--The infrared remote sensor is on the front of the camera. (What's next, put the LCD on the front?) A normal photographer is behind the camera, and that's where the sensor should be. Especially if I want to take a remote shot from the edge of a cliff (which I often do); I don't want to be standing in space like Wile E. Coyote. I'm going to rig a Rube Goldberg mirror attached to the tripod, so I can stand behind the camera or off to the side and aim at the mirror. This should work.
GOOD NEWS: I just got the remote and tried using it. It can be used from a position to the side and slightly behind the camera, about 10 degrees back. BUT you must be on the right hand side of the camera, where the sensor is. You can't do this from the left hand side of the camera, so this is still a limiting factor in many real-life situations. One button focuses, the other shoots. Haven't tried the remote range yet. (BTW, a cheap JJR remote from Goja is what I got and it works fine. Plus the battery is included and is easily replaceable.)
--The remote can't be used for burst shooting. (Every cable remote I've ever seen could.)
So the remote is not good for action shots.
--Fixed LCD. This was almost a deal-killer, but there were so many other pluses that I went ahead and bought it. I haven't used it in bright sunlight yet; this is one reason I ditched the Canon T2i. Sometimes you really do need to get an angle. Pentax claims that the screen can be seen from an angle, so maybe this won't be an issue. I'm more of a viewfinder shooter anyhow, but one likes to have options.
--No cord or string on the lens cap. How hard would it be to include this obvious item? I'll probably drill a small hole in it and thread a string through it. But this is a dumb omission.
Haven't really tried the video yet, except to ascertain that it works (it does); for me it's not very important, but nice to know it's there.
Haven't tried the short lens yet. I assume it's just as good as the telezoom.
Bottom line: I'm very happy with this camera. Images are crisp, colors are nice without any adjustment, zoom is great. There are a lot of upgrades over the k-x. I got lucky and got the k-r kit for only $100 more than the k-x kit. Otherwise I wouldn't have bought it, and frankly, I would have missed out. I'm keeping the Fuji S100 also; it has cable remote and takes great pictures at all ranges. But it doesn't have the same burst capability.
Advice: IF you don't use remote for action shots, and IF you don't use filters--or don't mind spending a bit more for better filters, buy the k-r. It really is outstanding for action shots and distance shots. Don't bother to go below the 200 native ISO; it works fine, no noise, and you gain nothing by using the option to lower it.

Yes, I have ever tried to shoot RAW, and I actually succeeded in doing so. What does that have to do with anything I said in my review? I didn't complain about anything, I stated facts. And although you're obviously far smarter than I am, and clearly superior, I am using the camera properly. BTW, There is no such thing as a scene that requires RAW. Anything in the real world can be recorded in JPEG. And since the RAW burst length is relatively limited, JPEG is the only practical choice for many action shots.

The meaning of your question, "WB, for example?" eludes me. In my review, I said, " I presume that changing WB will do the trick." I also said "I did try moving the WB up into the GB quadrant a bit; that did not have much effect."
Bottom line: I described my experience with the camera, both the good (mostly) and the not-so-good. If I've said something untrue or inaccurate, please point it out. If you have some constructive suggestion regarding a solution to the one technical issue I've raised (the inability of the camera, at both factory and altered settings, to capture an evening sky without the massive introduction of a color that was not visibly present in the actual scene), it would be nice of you to share it. So far, neither has happened.

In other words, you are unwilling or unable to suggest a workable solution. Thanks for sharing.
In reply to an earlier post on Dec 8, 2010 5:06:26 PM PST
Let's see: a solution is needed when the hardware has a problem. I am not saying that Pentax is perfect... look at the K-5 and the issue it has. But... you cannot blame Pentax for you not growing with the camera. You have several different parameters possible with the K-r... some of them giving much better color fidelity. Or just, shoot RAW. But you prefer to make a point that "you could not get the colors you wanted"... with a JPG. Come on... be serious.

Mags says:
Why don't you either propose a solution, or leave the guy alone? (I read his review twice, he never said anything about "you could not get the colors you wanted.") All you're doing is telling him he's a jerk. Fine, we get it; you are so smart. But it doesn't sound like you know much. The fact is that shooting in RAW will NOT change the color output to any significant degree (I called Pentax to verify this). Or maybe you should give lessons to the Pentax technicians.
In reply to an earlier post on Dec 11, 2010 3:07:13 AM PST
LOL. So you had to call Pentax to ask something like this? 8 vs 12 bits of information, and no changes made to a linear RAW file, rather than a cooked JPG. You should just ask them something: what's a "significant degree"... :)

Financial prognostication has a notoriously shoddy track record (We're looking at you, Jim Cramer!).
But did anyone actually see the financial crisis coming?
Well, sort of. There were a number of economists, pundits and even a few politicians who either predicted aspects of the crisis or had eerily prescient things to say about the pre-credit crunch, pre-housing bust economy.
We've compiled a list of some of the most notable soothsayers of financial doom. Check out our photos and vote for your favorite prophet of our still-lingering financial apocalypse. If you know of any other thinkers who predicted to the crisis, leave them in the comments section and we'll add them to the list.
The economist they call "Dr. Doom" didn't earn his nickname by shilling Wall Street encomiums. Roubini was one of the most vocal critics of the pre-bubble American economy. Witness this gem from New York magazine way back in 2006: "...since 1997, real home prices have increased by about 90 percent. There is no economic fundamental—real income, migration, interest rates, demographics—that can explain this. It means there was a speculative bubble. And now that bubble is bursting."
Shiller was one of the first economists to warn of a massive housing bubble in the United States. (That's on top of predicting the tech stock bubble in 1990s.) In 2005, the second edition of his book "Irrational Exuberance" attacked the housing boom directly.
Described by the U.K.'s Times Online last year as "the hottest thinker in the world," Taleb's seminal book is seen by many as a central metaphor of the financial crisis. To wit, from The Times: "In December [of 2007] he lectured bankers at Société Générale, France's second biggest bank. He told them they were sitting on a mountain of risks – a menagerie of black swans. They didn't believe him. Six weeks later the rogue trader and black swan Jérôme Kerviel landed them with $7.2 billion of losses."
Last year, Fortune rather breathlessly called her "The Woman Who Called Wall Street's Meltdown." In 2007, she famously hounded Citigroup and Merrill Lynch, and pointed to many of the banking sector's weaknesses. Here's how they put it last August: "Whitney is convinced that the economy is about to sink into an 'early 1980s-style' recession that will devastate the 10% of the population that became overextended during the housing boom. 'It feels like I'm at the epicenter of the biggest financial crisis in history.'"
Free market aficionado - and current Senate hopeful in Connecticut - had some very prescient things to say about the economy in 2006, including that we'd soon be facing a prolonged recession. "The disease is all this debt financed consumption," Schiff told Fox News. "The cure is that we stop consuming so much and start producing." Sound advice.
Here's how the WSJ described a prophetic 2005 speech at the Kansas City Fed's annual symposium in Jackson Hole, Wyoming: "Mr. Rajan — then the International Monetary Fund's chief economist — delivered a presentation titled 'Has financial development made the world riskier?' Among his opening lines: 'People can borrow greater amounts at cheaper rates than ever before, invest in a multitude of instruments catering to every possible profile of risk and return, and share risks with strangers from across the globe. Have these undoubted benefits come at a cost?'"
In August of 2008, Rogoff warned that the world economy was about to witness the failure of a huge investment bank. Here's the U.K.'s Times Online: "We're not just going to see mid-sized banks go under in the next few months, we're going to see a whopper, we're going to see a big one — one of the big investment banks or big banks." He also foresaw the downfall of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
Morgan's Asia operations chief predicted in 2004 that the U.S economy had a 10 percent chance of avoiding financial "armageddon," thanks to a rising trade deficit, mounting U.S. consumer debt and artificially low interest rates.
In 1999, Dorgan was one of just eight Senators to vote against a bill that would repeal part of the Glass-Steagall Act Of 1933. Glass-Steagal prevented banks from melding with investment houses and insurance companies, a key factor in stopping the rise of "too big to fail" financial institutions. Also, voting against it were Sens. Barbara Boxer, Barbara Mikulski, Richard Shelby, Tom Harkin, Richard Bryan, and Russ Feingold.

When Jonathan Edwards died, he left a corpus of writing that attracted the labors of gifted thinkers for the next century and a quarter. The committed interpretation of this writing has been called the New England Theology. Its adherents, usually proponents of denominational Protestantism in New England and the Middle Atlantic States, adapted Edwards's teachings to a changing society and intellectual climate, and also resolved problems they believed he had handled inadequately. Although these men, like Edwards, usually expounded ideas already prominent in Western Christianity, a peculiar system emerged, a chapter in the history of theology. In American speculative thought, the New England Theology forms a tradition comparable to later American pragmatism.
The first and most important group of followers had begun refining Edwards's ideas even when he was alive. Opponents called them men of the New Divinity, because, it was claimed, they introduced novel doctrines into Calvinism, more indebted to modern philosophy than to religion. Joseph Bellamy, Samuel Hopkins, Nathaniel Emmons, Jonathan Edwards the Younger, and Timothy Dwight were its leading lights.
The New Divinity was succeeded by the New Haven Theology, focused around the stunning thought of Nathaniel William Taylor and his colleagues at Yale. Later, Henry Boynton Smith and the New School Presbyterianism of Union Seminary in New York picked up Edwardsean themes, and the philosophy of religion formulated at the Andover Seminary in Andover, Massachusetts, from the time of Leonard Woods and Moses Stuart to that of Edwards Amasa Park also reflected Edwards's impact. Although Andover was more conservative than innovative, more tenacious than expansive, the tradition ended only with Park's retirement in 1881.
The New England Theology molded other thinking. The New Divinity influenced liberal religious thought in Boston, which overthrew Calvinism at Harvard in the early 1800s. Many of the creatively religious of the mid-century were indebted to Germany. But these men—James Marsh, Horace

This website only makes "realistic" but at the same time "fantasy" medical exams. This means the patient will be totally naked, uncommon in real exams (but not at all impossible) but the patient won't be sucked or anything like that, something that's just way unreal. So the 'happy ending' you guys want won't happen.
Posted: by whitetiger108 (2012-09-20 08:15)
Well, I don't see the happy ending, just a steel tube up this very handsome man's ass. No "happy ending" shot. Actually, an incomplete video. No ending at all.

Thankfully their last clear-out went to auction, but anything that didn't sell - you guessed it, got dumped. Crazy - I would have happily taken the 10 6x7 enlargers off their hands, but they refused to sell to me; seems some rules aren't made to be flexible, rather idiocy reigns.

The only test I care about is how the camera performs for me under the conditions I use it to take photos. Although I read the reviews on DPR, my mind is long made up before they are even published.
As it is the capabilities of semi-pro cameras exceed the capabilities of many photographers!

Jordan Bray, DC, ND, PAK
Dr. Bray grew up in the small Ohio town of Piqua. He struggled with chronic jaw pain ever since getting braces as a kid. While in high school he shadowed a local chiropractor. Soon thereafter he became a patient in hopes of addressing his jaw pain. Dr. Bray was inspired by his doctor's comprehensive approach and thorough training, and he was thrilled when he experienced tremendous relief under chiropractic care. It became routine for Dr. Bray to schedule an appointment with the chiropractor after any dental checkup, simply because it made his jaw feel so much better.
Motivated by his passion to help people and inspired by how much chiropractic and naturopathic medicine have helped him, Dr. Bray chose natural medicine as his calling. And he is excited to now have the opportunity of paying it forward.
In pursuit of this goal, he moved to Lombard, Illinois to attend the National University of Health Sciences (NUHS). In 2010 Dr. Bray was awarded a Bachelors degree in Biomedical Sciences, and in 2013 he was awarded a Doctorate of Chiropractic Degree. He continued his studies at NUHS even after this, and in April 2015, Dr. Bray received his Doctorate of Naturopathic Medicine.
During his time at National University of Health Sciences, Dr. Bray also studied over 400 hours of Professional Applied Kinesiology (PAK) with some of the top doctors in the field. Additionally, Dr. Bray studied a variety of other techniques, including Gonstead Chiropractic Technique, Sacro-Occipital Technique (SOT), Total Body Modification (TBM), Neuro Emotional Technique (NET), Contact Reflex Analysis (CRA), and Nutrition Response Testing (NRT).
Dr. Bray continues to take seminars to learn as much as possible and to help each and every patient be the very best they can be. He is excited to now have the opportunity of paying it forward.

It was a photo of me listening intently to the speaker at the immigration forum at the University of Miami. It was a side profile of me and about 5 other people. The photo looked good, but I did not want my photo in the newspaper. If someone recognized me they would know I was an illegal alien because I was attending this immigration forum.

Moving On - Memoirs of An Illegal Alien Part 108 It was 3 months since my last encounter with Nicola. I could not get her out of my mind. I was feeling great about my future immigration status. Now that I was not looking for someone to marry for a green card maybe she would take me back. A few times I thought about calling but did not.

One, two, three - Short story; adopted from the book The ORIGINAL JAMAICAN Patois In the old days, before the late nineteen twenties and earlier, most Jamaican rural communities were very isolated and remote. This was partly due to the lack of transportation coupled with the bad condition of the roads. The main means of transport was the mule and dray, and the horse and buggy.
The 5 Must Have For An Enjoyable Jamaican Christmas Jamaicans love Christmas time but not for all the lights, decorations and shopping.

Business Marriage VS Presidential Executive Order - Memoirs of An Illegal Alien Part 107 I was now convinced I was living with Satan's daughter. After the incident where Juliet followed me and saw me with Nicola she demanded more money for the business marriage. She said I had agreed to not see Nicola and I was still seeing her. She threatened to move out and call the whole thing off if I did not give her more money. In fact she requested that I give her some of the money before the wedding.
Hard Luck - Short story; adopted from the book The ORIGINAL JAMAICAN Patois Rudolph was twenty-one, and still a virgin. There were two reasons for this; one, he was so ugly that no girl in his home town wanted to be seen with him, much more to sleep with him. Two; he could not afford to pay the prostitutes even though he offered them more than what he thought was the going rate. He read the newspaper column for 'Pen-pals Wanted', picked out some names and addresses, and wrote to a number of girls all over the island.
Godmother and Enid. - Short story; adopted from the book The ORIGINAL JAMAICAN Patois For nearly a century, from the late eighteen nineties to the early nineteen seventies, Jamaica enjoyed unprecedented growth compared to the other West Indian countries.

He had many run-ins with the law there, and because of his oratory skills and fast talking he had managed to stay a step or two ahead of the authorities.

While some may be familiar with the more recent 'nobody canna cross it' and 'A yah so nice' here are a few Jamaican slangs which were much more than a passing fad. Some like 'skettel' and 'Joe Grind' are more than 20 years old.
5 Things Jamaicans are afraid of Most Jamaicans like to act like they're king of the world, but behind all that bravado, you will find some simple and weird things that they're afraid of. From people who burn personal items in fear someone might use it to "work necromancy" and stop their progress, to when a 'moos moos' (mouse) runs across the floor. These are just a few of the things that can cause a big man to scream like a girl.

10 Words Jamaicans Mispronounce Jamaican patois is a fun, expressive language of which its people are proud. However, mispronunciations are bound to occur given that it is deeply intertwined with the English Language. Here are some common words Jamaicans often mispronounce.
Missed Opportunities - Short story; adopted from the book The ORIGINAL JAMAICAN Patois Linval Lewis was fifteen years old in nineteen fifty-nine when he seriously began to think about what he wanted to be, or could be as an adult a mere six years away. Prior to that he thought that at age twelve he would be sent off to the Kingston Technical High school like his cousin Donavan and some other boys from his elementary school. He was very disappointed when his father told him that there would be no money for him to attend High School. Elementary School rules did not allow students past the age of fifteen to attend full time. However, they were allowed to attend part-time to study for the Jamaica Local Examinations.
The thin line between love and hate - Memoirs of An Illegal Alien Part 104 The friendly relationship between Juliet and I had deteriorated after she pulled off that stunt putting pepper in Nicola's panty.

4 New Poems We added 4 new poems by Maxine Foster: Dear I, I Got Love dedicate to Ras Ifuma (Michael), She dance-Dedicate to Robert Nesta Marley and I Love You
Look like a police or look like a criminal.

Barking dog - A short story, adopted from the book 'The ORIGINAL JAMAICAN Patois: Words, Phrases and Short Stories' Alton Daley was eleven years old when his family moved to the other end of his parish, causing him to change schools.

He immediately noticed Al's shyness and started to pick on him. Every school day Lad ate Al's lunch and threatened to beat him up if he mentioned it to anyone.
Red Bull & Pepper In She Panty - Memoirs of An Illegal Alien Part 102 Nicola Roche, was making my life very complicated. She was not the "last hurray" before I got married. Nicole was more that a fling in my life. I was in love with her.

Cradled in the heart of Kenmare Bay, the picturesque town of Kenmare is the perfect location from which to discover the South West of Ireland, linking the internationally famous Ring of Kerry with the rugged Ring of Beara.
To the north of Kenmare is the Killarney National Park, 10,000 hectares of woodland and magical mountains, with spectacular views of the lakes of Killarney.
The unspoiled Ring of Beara lies to the south of Kenmare. Its rugged beauty is beyond compare, traffic is minimal and it abounds with archeological sites and spectacular views.
Whether it is walking on the mountains, cruising on the bay, horse riding, golfing, fishing, touring or soaking up the best of music you will not be disappointed in Kenmare.

Boston is America's Walking City. We are just compact enough to get around easily by foot – in fact, walking Boston is one of the best ways to take in all the city has to offer, from the Freedom Trail to the Seaport, Newbury Street to the North End.
We're excited to say we just made the walk around the beautiful South Boston Waterfront even more enjoyable thanks to our new pedestrian wayfinding pilot program. Newly installed pedestrian wayfinding signs provide directions to guide you to South Station, Fan Pier, Liberty Wharf and the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center. They not only tell you how to get there from here, they'll also tell you the estimated walking time, so you can be sure to get back before that session you really wanted to catch! View a map of the routes here (PDF).
The signage is part of an overall effort to improve the transportation infrastructure of the Seaport District around the BCEC. They will be in place through at least October while we gather feedback from you, our most important stakeholders! Are the signs and font big enough? Are the directions clear? Did you get where you intended to go?
Let us know what you think of your walking visit to Boston by tweeting us at #WalkSBW or emailing us at email@example.com.

The only agenda I have is to see BYV increase in price to get all us shareholders that have dead money tied up here. to an even keel or higher share value, that is, and then cheer BYV on to higher share prices than what we paid, at that point have RR buy us out at a nice premium to our share price .
That is my agenda.
And dats the truth!!!

2004 Iranian seizure of Royal Navy personnel
|2004 Iranian seizure of Royal Navy personnel
Two British patrol boats right after their capture as shown by the Iranian TV
|British Royal Navy
|Islamic Republic of Iran Navy
The 2004 Iranian seizure of Royal Navy personnel took place in the Shatt al-Arab (Arvand Rud in Persian) waterway on 21 June.[1] Six Royal Marines and two Royal Navy sailors were captured. The British servicemen were seized while training Iraqi river patrol personnel after Iran said they had strayed into the Iranian side of the waterway. They were threatened with legal action initially but released three days later following diplomatic discussions between Jack Straw, the British Foreign Secretary, and Kamal Kharazi, the Iranian Minister of Foreign Affairs. The British marines' weapons and boats were confiscated and have not been returned.[2] They were released unharmed three days later, on 24 June, after the British and Iranian governments agreed there had been a misunderstanding. Their equipment was not returned and a rigid inflatable boat (RIB) was put on display in a museum in Tehran. During their detention, according to former detainee Marine Scott Fallon, they endured a mock execution in which they were marched into the desert and made to stand blindfolded in front of a ditch while their captors cocked their weapons.[3][4] They also appeared blindfolded on Iranian TV, where they were forced to apologise for their "mistake".[5][6][7] The Royal Navy boats were operating close to the northern coast of the Persian Gulf in the mouth of the Shatt al-Arab waterway which divides southern Iran and Iraq. The weather was bad causing negligible visibility which may have contributed to a potential crossing of the Iranian border by the Royal Navy. After the crew were returned and events analysed the British government affirmed its belief that the personnel were actually still in Iraqi waters, however they consigned the incident to a misunderstanding and requested the return of the equipment.

Stephen Curry was held in relative check for most of Monday night's game at Salt Lake City. The NBA scoring leader and reigning MVP had scored 16 points through three quarters as Draymond Green and other teammates did the heavy lifting.
Then came the fourth quarter.
Curry scored 10 of his 26 points in the final 6 minutes 20 seconds and the Golden State Warriors held on for a 106-103 victory over the Jazz, their NBA-record 19th consecutive win to start the season.
"We've had some battles and, obviously, we've had some lopsided victories," Curry said. "But what gets lost in the record is the tough games we've had to claw our way out of like tonight. Just...

Freemasonry has been publicly condemned by the Vatican on many occasions going all the way back to the late 1700's and most recently when the soon to be Pope Benedict and John Paul II declared Catholic's who were also Freemason's were "in a grave state of sin" and their very soul was in danger. How can anyone reconcile their devotion to both organizations?

I've tried "iso-fying" 2 different originals for this game - yet I have the same problem: after the opening cinema, the game freezes. This is the only title that I have problems with thus far. I can't get it to run with either the PC or Xbox version of Gens (neogenesis/xenesis). Can anyone confirm this game working on Gens? If not, I'll give up, and just move onto the next title (I still need to convert Dragon's Lair, Eternal Champions, and Flink). If it DOES work for you - what did you do to convert it to an iso?

Template talk:Pentax digital interchangeable lens cameras
|WikiProject Photography
|(Rated Template-class)
Prosumer vs. Consumer[edit]
I have removed these labels per WP:V. They are uncited and apparently not labels Pentax published. http://www.pentaximaging.com/products/cameras/digital/digital_slr/ Nothing is mentioned there or related pages I could find that indicate either type of label. Cburnett (talk) 00:03, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
- I haven't got the time at the moment. Just about every Pentax press release announcing the camera declares who the target market is, so if any other editor has the time they can add these references using the <ref>link here</ref>. If no one else gets around to it, I'll go ahead and do it myself in a few hours. Tejastheory (talk) 01:04, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
This was recently announced at Photokina [1]. It's basically a smaller, lighter K200D (although it goes to ISO 3200, not 1600, hmmm). It still has the stabilization, but no sealing and no top LCD.
How the heck should this thing fit into the template? My proposal would be to change the K100D, K200D, etc. line to be called "Enthusiast", and put this in the "entry-level" category with the K110D. I know that's hopelessly imprecise but it seems like the easiest most intuitive solution. Any suggestions? :-P ǝɹʎℲxoɯ (contrib) 14:16, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
*istDS entry level while K100D enthusiast?[edit]
Is this because the DL hadn't appeared at this point on the timeline? So the DS had to be pentax's entry-level model at the time? The K100D sits, featurewise, somewhere between the DS and DL just with added shake reduction, i think it's fair to label any camera which uses a pentamirror as entrylevel, the 110D maybe needs its own super-entrylevel section. It's also worth comparing features between the *istD and DS, maybe the latter needs to be repositioned as enthusiast. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 18.104.22.168 (talk) 15:32, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
Removal of MZ-D and 645D prototypes[edit]
I agree that the MZ-D and 645D prototypes shouldn't have been listed as they were previously, since these never went into production or on sale. However, they were also significant in the development of Pentax's camera lineup and should probably be acknowledged somehow in a timeline like that.
Can anyone think of a way to incorporate prototypes into a timeline like this? It would probably be helpful for the Canon/Nikon/K-M/Sony templates as well, since those also omit early prototype and hybrid DSLR models which were significant in the development of modern DSLRs. Moxfyre (ǝɹʎℲxoɯ | contrib) 21:27, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
- How's this?
|PENTAX Digital SLR timeline
- --Richmeistertalk 05:13, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
645D now in mass production[edit]
As the medium-format digital 645D finaly went into production, it would make sense to update the template. What about:
|Pentax Digital SLR timeline
07:13, 2 June 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 22.214.171.124 (talk)
How about viewing the video capability, similar to Nikon, Canon tables? --18.104.22.168 (talk) 08:57, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
- Done. --Richmeistertalk 10:26, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
- Great! --126.96.36.199 (talk) 20:47, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
Table corrected[edit]
As of April 2011 camera shops here in the UK have the K-r, K-x, K5 and K7 for sale. See [2] Racklever (talk) 06:52, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
"Ultrasonic vibration dust removal"[edit]
The template currently distinguishes Ultrasonic vibration dust removal as a distinct feature of the K-7, K-5, and K-5 II. But don't all the Pentax DSLRs with in-body stabilization have ultrasonic dust removal? Or is this truly a new feature? (I only
With the K-S1 basically being a K-500 replacement from a line-up point of view and a weather sealed K-50 replacement on the way (Body presented at CES, pictures with a "K-S2" label on it leaked today): Wouldn't it make sense to move the K-S1 down to the "entry level" section to make room for the K-S2 in the green Mid-level section? --El Grafo (talk) 09:49, 6 February 2015 (UTC)
Q10 discontinued[edit]
The Q10 was discontinued somewhere during 2014. Difficult to say when exactly, but it's gone from the the Ricoh websites. --El Grafo (talk) 11:13, 6 February 2015 (UTC)
- Now end set to second quarter of 2014. If you've got better sources, please don't hesitate to correct that. --El Grafo (talk) 16:34, 17 February 2015 (UTC)
- Using archive.org I found out that the Q10 was moved to the "Discontinued" section of the Japanese Ricoh Website somewhere between October 2014 and March 2015. → will add another quarter to it's lifetime. --El Grafo (talk) 12:28, 28 September 2015 (UTC)
- The Q7 has been discontinued as well. It is now in the "Discontinued Model" section of [3], in the "Digital SLR Cameras" subsection (sic!). Not sure when exactly that was done, so I'll guesstimate … --El Grafo (talk) 12:08, 28 September 2015 (UTC)
- According to archive.org, the Q7 was moved to the "Discontinued" section somewhere between July and September 2015. → Guesstimate seems to be about right. --El Grafo (talk) 12:28, 28 September 2015 (UTC)

text: Comments (33) + Add comment Comments (33) Featured MikeMyers + 983d ago This is another reason why the no used games and always online rumors don't make much sense. #1 (Edited 983d ago ) | Agree(29) | Disagree(5) | Report | Reply fermcr + 983d ago A lot of people buy new games, play them ... and sell them after they are done with it to buy other new games. If the no used games is implemented in a next gen console, i think a lot of gamers are going to be more selective about purchasing a game (or wait until the games are much cheaper), that way decreasing the sales of games in general. #1.1 Agree(32) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply MikeMyers + 983d ago Agreed. #1.1.1 Agree(16) | Disagree(1) | Report silenius + 983d ago Well... lets just wait for the E3 and see what they are going to pull. I think that all this rumors so far are too far fetched. Why would someone shoot their own leg with no used games and always ON internet connection. So far I have not heard a single good thing about the next Xbox. Not a SINGLE one. And Im wondering why? Is it a type of retaliation from the consumers for being screwed for their dying consoles and their yearly subscription and not new exclusive IPs?... who knows :/ #1.1.2 Agree(13) | Disagree(6) | Report dcbronco + 982d ago @fermcr Some will wait. But most won't. There isn't a popular product out there that people wait on. When the next CoD releases people will buy it. All of the boycott and wait talk is just that. The reality is that any good game is only $5 cheaper used. Any unpopular game will quickly drop in price because it doesn't sell. The few people that won't buy because of blocks will be off set by the people who now have no choice. And far more will buy new than won't buy because of there being no used. Pure and simple. Good games will sell no matter what. Bad games weren't going to sell much anyway. #1.1.3 Agree(0) | Disagree(1) | Report -Superman- + 983d ago "in this time, we're trying to figure out how to fit that in to the whole digital landscape shift." Microsoft is saying that they trying to look how to put all those games to digital. #1.2 Agree(1) | Disagree(8) | Report | Reply Bigpappy + 983d ago Well there are a few websites that like to push these rumors, and they have found a willing audience here on N4G who are more than willing to sell any negative Xbox rumor as FACT. This reminds me, a bit, of the last U.S election. When I watched FOX News, They would always show one or 2 polls that showed Romney leading in key states. When I look at the main stream media, other polls had Obama winning big. The results came in and FOX New was in chaos. I suspect the same could happen here. People who live by rumors usually end up in shock and disappointment #1.3 Agree(12) | Disagree(5) | Report | Reply Simon_Brezhnev + 983d ago LMAO i saw the samething with the election. I didnt think so many people notice was fox was doing when comparing with other channels. #1.3.1 Agree(4) | Disagree(0) | Report ALLWRONG + 983d ago N4G and maybe a few forums are really the only places on the net making a big deal over these rumors. If you go by what the "horde" says here. These rumors are fact and set in stone, even though MS has released absolutely zero info on the next Xbox. Be careful with that kind of truth around here Bigpappy. They already taken you down a bubble, wont be long before you're down to one. #1.3.2 Agree(7) | Disagree(3) | Report Jek_Porkins + 983d ago The funny thing is, Microsoft doesn't want to piss off retailers for Xbox things, but also because they sell a ton of other things at retailers. If they were to tick them off, it could spell big trouble for Microsoft. This is exactly the reason they wont do always online or block used games, would mean suicide. I know Microsoft gets the most flack on this site, but as far as I'm concerned, they haven't pushed the digital agenda as much as the other companies, which I'm thrilled about. #1.4 Agree(6) | Disagree(2) | Report | Reply AngelicIceDiamond + 982d ago Exactly, MS doesn't offer day one distribution like Sony with current gen. And well, we know why now. MS blocking used games and a 24 hour console or a least "DRM" rumors with next box are not looking possible. It's not an official confirmation for the next box but its some pretty damn good evidence as far as rumors go for Next gen. #1.5 Agree(0) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply EliteDave93 + 983d ago This is why Microsoft wouldnt block used games. Dont make sense at all. #2 Agree(15) | Disagree(7) | Report | Reply ThanatosDMC + 982d ago Well they can satisfy retailers minus used games by adding a cd-key to their games and tying it with a players Live account. Retailers and publishers get their money while everybody laughs at Gamestop. #2.1 Agree(0) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply BanBrother + 983d ago Idiots. So basically they are saying that they aren't ready for next gen? Nobody wants to pay $100 for a digital game a month after release (Australia) and in the US the prices are high to I'm sure. They just keep talking, and I am getting less and less interested in the new Xbox. Maybe they should just shut up? PS3 gamers will all be getting a PS4. 360 gamers will be getting either one, and are leaning towards PS4 more and more everyday. That is a fact, I know a lot of the 360 crowd are finally getting sick of MS s***. Next-gen is going to absolutely punish MS if they don't smarten up. I say this as a gamer, not a fanboy. #3 Agree(21) | Disagree(16) | Report | Reply miDnIghtEr20C_SfF + 983d ago Then you're wrong. MS and Xbox are going to own the biggest and most important place for video game sales AGAIN.... the USA. #3.1 Agree(8) | Disagree(18) | Report | Reply wenaldy + 983d ago MURIKKKA!!! #3.1.1 Agree(8) | Disagree(3) | Report iTs_IDemonik + 983d ago Don't worry M$ with the prices you've got on the games on demand that are out months already retailers wouldn't stress too much on this, you see with the "brick-and-mortar" stores prices usually decline after months on shelves not stay $70-$80 for nearly a year! anyway imo this is just a stunt to cleanse their hands of the dirty tactics they were planning to use with "no secondhand games in OUR systems" playcard. this is just BS to try make them look like they are being generous... lol #4 Agree(3) | Disagree(9) | Report | Reply Jek_Porkins + 983d ago There are no games on Xbox Live priced $70-$80, not sure where you are getting that from. Also, did you see their recent sale? They were selling games at $2 a pop, I usually don't buy digital, but full games for under $5 is hard to pass up. I like the little $ instead of an S, does it work with $ony too? Too bad there isn't an S in Nintendo huh? Maybe we can start saying Nintendo'$? *Edit* @amiga-man That's funny, don't think I've heard that before. I do believe that there are options if people don't want to go with the Xbox 360 am I right? They could get a Wii U, Wii, PS3 or PC. I think the people choose to pay for a premium service, I mean I could go buy an HD antenna and watch HDTV, but I choose to go premium and pay for satellite so I can watch things like Spartacus, Game Of Thrones and Dexter. Are the satellite companies holding me at ransom too? lol Gaming is my hobby, I pay about $3 a month for Xbox Live, I pay $10 a month for bank fees, and around $50 a month just for a haircut.....If you cant afford your hobby, find a new one that you can afford. #4.1 (Edited 983d ago ) | Agree(8) | Disagree(5) | Report | Reply amiga-man + 983d ago The $ seems more appropriate for M$ as they are the only ones holding your internet access to ransom. I pay my internet provider for my internet so why exactly are M$ hiding it behind a pay wall, could it be your so called premium service isn't worth the subscription fee, M$ obviously realise this hence blocking online gaming, whether I can afford it or not makes no difference as I would never support such an obvious scam. #4.1.1 (Edited 983d ago ) | Agree(5) | Disagree(7) | Report gamertk421 + 983d ago This will get a lot of hate, but the Xbox Live service in and of itself (not counting PSN+) is far more robust and feature filled than the Playstation Network. The infrastructure is much more stable and I know it has been said ad nauseum, but to someone like me, it is vital for cross-game chat to be available. That is my main form of socializing with my out-of-town friends. I really don't mind paying $35 a year, because I know that service comes at a cost. When it comes to online console gaming, I'll take the stock Mercedes over the Ford Focus with all the bells and whistles. #4.1.2 Agree(4) | Disagree(7) | Report amiga-man + 983d ago gamertk421, if M$ was offering your cross game chat etc and you saw £35 of value in it fine, but that is not what M$ are doing they know cross game chat etc is not worth the subscription fee for most so to force them into paying the subscription fee they block your internet access which you are paying your internet provider for. Don't kid yourself about the value of xbl, if online was free (as it should be) subscriptions would drop like a stone, you know it, I know it and M$ know it. #4.1.3 (Edited 983d ago ) | Agree(2) | Disagree(5) | Report RustedMan + 983d ago ..So they decided to team up. #5 Agree(0) | Disagree(2) | Report | Reply InTheLab + 983d ago That explains why you never see anything but xboxes in the sunday ad.. #6 Agree(1) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply KrisButtar + 983d ago The only problem I have with them blocking used games is I can not borrow a friends game, other than that I always buy new #7 Agree(2) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply iGamerZero24 + 983d ago Well Sony has already made it real clear that every game will be offered digitally day & date with retail copies......PERIOD ! Watch the press event again... #8 Agree(3) | Disagree(2) | Report | Reply Campy da Camper + 983d ago Don't care who's name is on something. What matters to me is cost vs enjoyment. The reason I have gone with Sony for the last few years is the games. I'm not into fps. I like games like infamous and little big planet. So the pay for online is a big deal for me because I do do coop online with friends with games like dead space and Res evil. I also use Netflix. So paying for the ability to go online is a huge turnoff. Also, the games exclusive to ms that have my attention is limited to one. Witcher 2. That is it. This next gen I'm already salivating for ps4. Infamous and watchdogs for launch. Now that multi plats will not favor one console there is no reason to contemplate having 2 systems. #9 Agree(5) | Disagree(2) | Report | Reply iGamerZero24 + 983d ago Agreed ! If the rumors are true of the next Xbox going casual , DRM and so on I'll just buy a PS4 and Steam box for my gaming needs and on the go play my VITA & iPad.......MS made it real clear there not interested in games any more , they want to be a entertainment hub.....doesn't do it for me #9.1 Agree(2) | Disagree(2) | Report | Reply 00 + 983d ago I don't know why people believe that MS wont allow used games because it will be absolute suicide, the only games that would be on the shelves of stores would be Wii U and Ps4 titles because nobody is going to buy a the next box games when they lose all value instantly after purchase. used games put a lot of money in the industry and it would be stupid to try and cut that out just to try and make a little extra. #10 Agree(4) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply Father Murder X + 982d ago how come they are more Sony fanboy comments in these xbox 360/720 articles than xbox. these articles don't concern you do they. I swear for all their great exclusives they spend more time on N4g defending sony than playing the ps3. I see why so many of there games flop. You all love Sony like it was a woman. #11 (Edited 982d ago ) | Agree(7) | Disagree(3) | Report | Reply BitbyDeath + 982d ago Would you like a tinfoil hat to go with those comments? #11.1 Agree(2) | Disagree(2) | Report | Reply lastofgen + 982d ago yeah, I don't know either, but it's best to just ignore them. #11.2 Agree(1) | Disagree(0) | Report | Reply JasonKCK + 982d ago This is just a Sony site. There are plenty of other sites that arnt. To me it just sounds like ther're worried about what MS will do next gen. #11.3 Agree(1) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply JasonKCK + 982d ago Well there goes the whole "wont play used games" rumor. This pretty much confirms that it will. All I want is full BC so I can have more than just a couple launch games to play. #12 Agree(1) | Disagree(1) | Report | Reply Add comment You need to be registered to add comments.

I'm a 29-year old guy living in Eindhoven. I'm a fan of fantasy and sci-fi, whether in book, tv or movie form, and every week I play board games with a group of friends. I also spend a lot of time at my computer, since it's the gateway to many of my hobbies: TV shows, movies, music, computer games, and of course there's the endless source of entertainment that is the internet. Probably unsurprisingly, my job involves computers as well: I work as a programmer in the building industry.
Aside from all things computer-related, I also love traveling. I try to see a new country every year, the further the better. Last year I went to Costa, which was really beautiful. For all intents and purposes it's an open-air zoo. I haven't decided where I'm going to go this year yet, but Australia and Japan both look pretty interesting. Decisions, decisions... Since it would be a shame to visit all these countries and not have any mementos, I've also developed an interest in photography. I usually arrive back home with about 3000-4000 pictures, the best of which I enlarge and hang on my walls.
As for personality, I'm an easy-going, rational, cheerful and somewhat introverted guy who likes a good laugh... but trying to describe yourself in a few words is pointless anyway, so let's just leave that for when we meet each other.
