Thanks Rex the Lady Ameherst is from southern china. It was named after some member of royalty I believe. Often considered the most handsome of the ornamental pheasants. I'm gonna try to uplaod a shot of my breeder bird hope you enjoy.

Thanks Alecia

Thanks Molymolly.

Thanks colo43. Its a good feeling to know that if it were not for the few people like me these birds would not exist in this country.

Thanks Sarge. I've been doing it for about 25 years. I have a 400 sq. ft. aviary in my yard that brings a lot of pleasure.

Shot with a circular polarizer of some rare flat bottomed clouds here in south eastern Pa.

Good idea, no hurry.

Thanks

Yep. Thanks just did. Bunch of scam artist don' buy from them. Our local Wallmart has it for $369.00 with 15 days to return it.
Sams club has it for $389.00 with 90 days to return it. I'm sure tempted. Any words of encouragement?

Has anyone had any dealings or know anything about an internet company called compuDeals2u.

They are offering the SX40 at $269.00. Huh? really?

Wow! You are amazing. Thank you very much. This will certainly help after I purchase the camera. I suppose there is no way to get a count from the camera itself. It just amazes me the info that is recorded on a image. Thanks again.

Can anybody tell me how to get a shutter count on a canon SX40 camera. I have an opportunity to purchase one at a decent price but would like to check the shutter count.
Thanks

I purchased a K5 several months ago. I've owned Pentax cameras for a lot of years and have always liked them. I loved this K5 a great camera. Unfortunately I had to return it. No matter what mode, saturation, contrast or white balance setting I used it was virtually impossible to get a decent skin tone. I also used three different lens. Ifyou want a camera for landscapes or wild life this is a great camera. But if a freind ask you to take a family photo your sunk. Using a flash just makes it worse. Google "K5 skin tones" before you buy.
