Being very obedient souls, Jan and I tried a New York pizza last night, at a place named Gruppo's in East Village - thin, crisp crust, limited amount of toppings, and very tasty - freshly prepared, of course, in the oven we could check out from our seat.Yes, Larry - I've noticed already being able to shoot at even 800ISO and get good clear shots at 1/10 - 1/3. Not had to push yet beyond that, but will be looking to try it out. John in NY

Cheers, Christine I have instructed John and Jan that they need to try pizza in both New York and Chicago. BTW John, don't forget to push the ISO on your new K-5 way harder than you think is possible. Take a photo at what you think is a reasonable ISO, then take it again using the shutter speed and/or aperture that you really want to use if only it were possible to get decent photos at ISO 6400 to 16,000. for example, this was shot at ISO 10,000 https://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/9310682903/in/album-72157634684347823/ This is 25,600 https://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/8366084507/in/album-72157632485855236/ Also, don't be afraid to try to push on the SR at low shutter speeds. You wouldn't think that you could hand hold below 1/10 second and get away with it, but if you brace yourself well the K-5 can get a reasonable percentage of clear shots down to 0.3 seconds hand held. > > >> On Oct 11, 2016, at 12:24 PM, [email protected] wrote: >> >> >> >> Hi guys - well, we're here!
