We had a little ice storm last night so I tool some snapshots around
the
house and then went off into the woods for a good portion of the day.
The woods I visited had been spared
NIce collection, Frank. I like #5 the best - but all the shots of the
plants encased in ice like are great.

For the most part the long shots were unspectacular; getting up close was far
more satisfying. Everything here was taken with the 18-55 zoom:
Missed this when it was first posted, but that is a fabulous image.

That's what a stock agency told me some time ago - they rejected all the

Does anyone know - is it possible to program the Q's quick dial so that
you can click on a setting and take an HDR shot? Not the faux HDR as in
the HDR digital filter, but the real HDR that takes muliple shots and
combines them? I spent a bit of time with the Q and its manual hoping to
do this
Thanks for confirming that - I spent some time over the last few days
with the manual and the camera, hoping to do it through the USER
settings, which I can't seem to get to work one way or another. It looks
like the Quick dial only allows customization of the Custom Picture
Mode, Digital
Very nice set of photos, all of them. The B17 is my favorite but I just
like B17's

Very nice collection - you really nailed the exposures and capture the
feel of the place. The photos of the statues in front of the stained
galss are very well done - hard to balance the ambient light on the
statue with the back light from the stained glass windows. Nice set!

Nice shots. I like 20120907-LRC70874.jpg the best of the set.

fourteen frames in the

All of this is covered on Pages 80 81 of the Q manual.

I've been trying to find the right combination of K mount lenses to use
with an adapter on the Pentax Q, for macro and bird shots.
Samples form my tests so far, with actual pixel images and a comparison
to the K5 and MZ-S for bird shots:
be the new secret, yet to be announced lens (announcement #8)
to match the yet-to-be-announced FF with aperture s[t]imulator (#9).

Thanks for this terrific write-up and samples, Mark. A couple of
technique questions, if I may:
Perhaps a dumb question, but are you hand-holding your macros?
And on your super-telephoto shots, are you using the self-timer?
