 Hi Photographer friends,

A new Chapter is being added to the existing Pentax K-3 e-book. It will include all the new options available with the newest Pentax K-3II.

If you already purchased the K-3 e-book, the upgrade will be free. You will need to let me know your name and about when you purchased the K-3 e-book.

I should be able to release the upgrade no later than June 15, 2015.

Best Regards,
Yvon Bourque

The Pentax K-S2 four-way controller...Inconvenience and how to fix it.

Email: brqyvn@gmail.com 

 Hi Photographer friends,

Have you purchased a Pentax K-S2?

If you have, I have fixed a little problem that I think is annoying. I wanted to share with everyone. It’s not that big of a problem, but here it is:

The four-way controller on the K-S2 is not all that great. The buttons are flush with the body and it’s hard to know which button you are pushing without looking. You don’t always want to look, you should be able to push the right button by feel. The way it is now, you sometimes push the wrong button.

See how the four-way controller buttons are flush with the body! You can't feel them.


The four-way controller, on my K-3, K-5 and K-7 and most Pentax DSLRs I owned, were easy to find and they all protruded a little. Why the changes? I don’t know.

They protrude on most Pentax DSLRs. Why the changes?



I purchased a pack of self-stick transparent bumpers. Using an Exacto knife, cut a small portion of a bumper and affix one on each of the four-way buttons. They are transparent so you can read though them and they are just thick enough to use the buttons by feel.

Transparent bumpers for about a dollar at the hardware store or Wall-mart.

See how they protrude now. You can also see through them.

The Pentax K-S2 e-book is now available. 320 pages of information and how to!

 Hi Photographer friends,


Today, I introduce our new e-book, "PENTAX K-S2 Everything you need to know...and then some."

The K-S2 is the first Pentax DSLR with Wi-Fi and articulating screen. It's pretty special. Because it is so special, my e-book is also special. I  pretty much revamped my e-book template and I am proud of the new look. It is much more interactive than my previous e-books, with links from within the e-book and links to the internet. The e-book has 320 pages. This one took me three Months to write. 

The K-S2 is a remarkable DSLR for it's price range. I prefer some of its features to that of my beloved K-3.

Email me if you would like a sample of the e-book. brqyvn@gmail.com

The full e-book is available, as all my Pentax e-books are, at ebooks4cameras.com

Thank you for being such loyalist readers.
