Thanks, Joe!
I was curious what others would make of 6242, as it was my favorite of
the day. Horses can be challenging to shoot when they're as sociable as
these were. When they walk right up to you at the fence, trying to track
the focus with a manual prime can be a little tricky. I credit the
bright viewfinder and focus detection on the K20D.
I look forward to hearing back from you -- and good luck with Safari! :-)

P.S. GOOD LUCK with the K20D
Hi all!
Well, I'm just absolutely beaming right now. I L.O.V.E this camera!
The first thing I noticed about it was how much more quickly it
focuses with my A 50/1.7 and how I managed to get shots with it that
I never would have gotten with my K-x. There really is no comparison.
Here's about 20 shots I grabbed today -- out of a total of 86 taken.
They're a bit redundant, unfortunately, but that's because I couldn't
make up my mind which ones I liked best. I rarely get anywhere near
that percentage in keepers from either of my other two bodies. And
I'm just astounded that anyone could possibly have a knock against
the IQ of this camera.
Anyway -- here are the results of my first outing with it:

Comments, critiques and suggestions are welcome as always. But, I
have to say I'm pretty happy with the results given the fact that I
know almost nothing about this camera. I can't wait to get familiar
with it.
