For me there is also always the dilemma going for a walk: do I take the K-1 or the K-5. Weight/size versus quality. The K-5 with the DA 21/3.2 limited is so conveniently small and fits well under a coat in cold weather, though I see people thinking  I am growing a belly. Once I decide to take th

For my trek through Yorkshire on the Pennine Way next month I'm going to be taking the K-1 (over the K-5) mainly because of the GPS tagging. I never thought I'd use it but it's amazing how wrong I was. It's absolutely brilliant when traveling. Hell, even close to home it's easy to forget where I to

I wouldn't like you to lose the tree the branches are coming off of that the bird is perched on... the shape of the branches adds rather than detracts... Keeping the same proportions and zooming in a bit though might be a thing to do..to give the bird a bit more weight. Keep 'em coming , Subas

That's excellent. That's pretty much exactly what I was thinking of when I said to crop in tighter on the bird. Subash Jeyan wrote: On Sat, 14 Apr 2018 19:52:38 -0400 ann sanfedele wrote: I wouldn't like you to lose the tree the branches are coming off of that the bird is perched on... th
