Wow! What fun I had. I sure hope this K-5 works out :-))))) Next weekend I'm shooting an outdoor event, so I'll try the zooms, and I'll be carrying my recently purchased Domke F2! I think I just might have the camera-bag-frustration-thing eliminated! Woo! Hoo! Comments welcome, Cheers, Christine
Some excellent photographs in either set, Christine. Isn't K-5 a great camera?
I noticed as of recently that with K-5 the following interesting LR trick works.
* By default in development module the exposure is set to 0 and brightness to 50.
* I now as a matter of course dial brightness down to 15 or even less (still positive though). Then I dial exposure to compensate.
Somehow the result looks just a bright but this way it is better - more pleasing to my eyes. I cannot really explain it, but it works for me.
In fact, tonal range of K-5 is such that great many ways of playing with the image tonality become possible.
