Pentax K-3, SMC DFA 50mm f2.8, flash. The snow crystals were not too well formed but the K-3 and DFA 50 did a great job.
The start of the season is always about getting setup again and getting things working properly. This year aside form upgrading the camera and lens I stopped using the AF360FGZ and just slapped a little Achiever manual flash onto a PC to hot shoe adapted and ran it through an Olympus Safe Synch. The AF360 kept going into power saving mode and then resetting itself, requiring constant attention. TGhe little manual flash with a bit of white cloth wrapped around it works great.
Lots of detail in the K-3 images - I think the DFA 50mm f2.8 is optically superior to the Sigma EX 50 that I used before (the non-digital version).
