Thank you, Bob!
I have to admit I was really satisfied with the results given it was the
first time I've ever used the thing. I'm sure I'll get plenty more
opportunities to work that barn.
The dog is actually catching BBQ-flavored pork skins. I'm still really
happy that I was able to get those shots with the A 50/1.7 and focused
well enough to capture the flying crumbs and dog spit! :-)

Walt,
That's a very nice start for the K-20.
I particularly liked the horse, barn, yellow blossom, and dog catching
the McNugget(?).
The very green grass is contributing to the impact of those photos.
You've got to work on the barn more.
Regards, Bob S.

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.
