I just let it rest on the open LCD screen when I am using it in that mode. Still easy to see and use. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.ukskydiver.co.uk -
Ordering from abroad (how to PAY, not avoid the tax...)

They will pay initially. You will get an invoice from the carrier within 2 weeks to pay them back. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.ukskydiver.co.uk -
Recommend a wide angle lense for Sony PC105
flylikeahandbag replied to lintern's topic in Photography and Video
As others have already stated you need to decide what you are going to use the lens for and buy the right product to match. If you want slimline like a WayCool then you are going to have to pay a little more. As a starter this was the lens I started with and was recommended to me. Its not slimline, but it does a good job (depending on what you wish to use it for). I still use this lens to good effect on my PC101. http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00006IVG9/qid=1149608081/sr=2-2/ref=sr_2_3_2/203-0039216-4498377 Also speak to your local camera guys as there will be a wealth of knowledge to be gained. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.ukskydiver.co.uk -

Waycool Blue Eye Lens 0.45

I wonder if anyone has come across this problem I have with this lens or similar lenses. I was using this lenses with a PC101, using it in manual focus. Everything would look in focus on the setup and play back when on the camera, but when played back on a larger screen some shots would be a little out of focus. I tried several times to adjust the focus even using a large screen, but it appears to be very sensitive to the focus setup up and unreliable IMO as I am now using the setup up for tandem video. I have reverted to my previous .5 Hama lens (uses infinity) and the problems have disappeared. I have also used a red eye .3 on this camera without any apparent problems (not a lot off jumps with it). I would appreciate if anyone has any ideas. suggestions as to the cause. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.ukskydiver.co.uk -

Its a company machine so I have little control over the s/w. The problem has not occurred to date since the original two issues. If it had only occurred the once then I would probably not have reported anything, but since it happened twice in quick succession I though I would flag it up. I can only go on what was in the Trend log and that was intrusion prevention. The other info in the log was: "[217] Microsoft Multiple Application/OS GDI+ JPEG Processing Buffer Overflow Vulnerability attempt detected (CAN-2004-200)" Means nothing to me I'm afraid. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.ukskydiver.co.uk

Hi, I'm not sure whether this is a prob, or just over sensitive s/w at my end . My works machine uses Trend Sygate and twice in two days it has detected an intrusion attempt, whilst I have been connected to DZ.com resulting in a 24 hour ban on access to the site each time. Has anyone else come across this? I have attached a screen grab of the log FYI. Bst Rgds. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.ukskydiver.co.uk

Same here. Been using them (1 gig version) problem free in my 350D. Frame rates good and plenty fast when downloading. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.ukskydiver.co.uk

Same thing happened to mine. Fortunately it happened when I was setting it up, so just glued them back on, without any further problems. I found out later that they do come off quite easily and was recommended to re-glue them even if they don't seem to be a problem on any future setups. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.ukskydiver.co.uk

Think I know the Tom that your are referring too. He is still jumping at Peterlee. Yes we have a Cessna 182 that does not have a door. Can be a tad chilly in the winter. There is also a Nomad at the moment. See you soon. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.ukskydiver.co.uk -

Hi Tim, What DZ do you jump at? If you happen to get to Peterlee, which is probably the closest to you, give me a shout and introduce yourself.
