The 645D is a real battery hog on long exposures. Four half-hour

Well, that's two hours of continuous data-crunching, which doesn't
strike me as too bad.

But the results are pretty good. The K-5 is a small miracle for
nighttime photography. I frequently ended up using its 12800 ISO to
determine exposure before cranking the ISO down and go into Bulb mode.
Worked well for estimating exposure for the 645D as well. Saved me a
LOT of trial and error. :-)

I use a digital SLR as a "light meter" for film shots with my Pentax
67.

Hope you enjoy:

Two things:
1 - Which, if any, of those shots was the half-hour exposure?
2 - I hate you ;-)



My K-5 is agood light meter for my Mamiya RB67
