Some nice shots. I really like 301. Excellent.

Hi Rick

Early days yet. I'm off to Guernsey for a couple of weeks break so will give
it a good workout.

I decided to speed up the buying decision because my K10 is at the menders having its AF-S/AF-C problem fixed (new switch assembly required, GBP 87 the poorer) and I thought it might not be ready in time for my hols (it won't be). Had the option of using my Ist*D as a backup, but decided to take the
plunge...

For the backlit shots I used matrix metering and overexposed by a stop. I should think about using spot metering for these situations, but old habits
from my MX manual days die hard!

I'll keep you informed.

Chris

Hi Chris!

I like these, and the K7 seems to handle exposure in backlighting very
well (or were you spot metering?).

I would be very interested in your comments on the K7 compared to your K10. I'm contemplating upgrading in a few months when the prices come
down a bit, and when all of you early adopters have worked the bugs
out!

Cheers,

Rick

A community music event run by the
Parks Trust in Campbell Park, Milton
Keynes. It's the John Howarth Band:

DA* 16-60 2.8 and DA* 50-135 2.8. DNG raw converted in LR
1.

A selection of daylight lighting and no horrid colour
issues as far as I can
see (so long as you ignore the red leopard print trousers
the bass player is
wearing).
