I remain very happy with my K-5; I have a K-7 as a backup (which I rarely use). A rear screen that moves (such as the K-1 has) would tempt me. The “hybrid viewfinder” would have been interesting. Right now, though, I’m not tempted. Rick > On May 14, 2020, at 4:16 PM, P. J. Alling wrote: > >

I can relate to this. I'm pretty much the poster boy for Non-Essential, which the current state of the universe has only emphasized. Of course, if I'm not shooting, I'm not getting paid, but there have been enough shifts in Dougworld lately to fill my time with stuff that needs to be done,

Yes, the K-1 in crop mode is 16mp. I shoot long lens birds in full Frame mode and crop as desired. It’s a bigger canvas. But I fed get good results using the same glass on the K3. I’ll have to try it again. Paul > On May 16, 2020, at 7:37 PM, Bill wrote: > > On 5/16/2020 4:48 PM, Paul

I’ve been working at home for 12 years, so I’ve had plenty of practice. I work 10am to 4pm, five days a week. Rarely more, although I will if necessary. All my employment is contract work so I have plenty of motivation to get it done. The last two months have been very good. I just hope it

But the difference in image circle between a full frame lens and an APS lens is much less than that if a medium format lens vs a full frame lens. They do have a sweet spot, although The recent full frame Pentax lenses are generally sharp from corner to corner. Paul > On May 17, 2020, at 9:02
