Sidali Selloum teaches Aikido in Algiers Algeria. After our dojo's chief
instructor book on Aikido was published, he started following her on
facebook and last year asked to visit so that he could train with her.
He came back this year for a few weeks and co-taught a couple of
seminars at our dojo with her.
Here is a gallery of 44 photos from those two seminars, mostly taken
with the K-1

I hope you enjoy the photos, can comments on either specific photos or
the gallery in question are appreciated.
While the K-3 is no slouch in terms of photographic quality in
challenging light, even in crop mode, the base image quality of the K-1
dramatically outshines that of the K-3. It seems that even in crop mode,
the K-1 has a stop or so better sensor performance than the K-3, when
you can average down from twice the sensor area, the difference between
them grows.
The K-3 outperforms the K-1 in two categories, frame rate and buffer
size. Shooting the K-1 in crop mode will close some, but not all, of
that gap.
In my brief experience with the D810, the K-1 still lags seriously
behind in autofocus speed, performance and sensor coverage. I have a
lot of otherwise excellent photos that are focused perfectly on the
background, rather than the subjects.
TLDR; The K-1 is an amazing camera, it is however not an amazing, or
possibly even a particularly good, sports camera.
