Re: PESO: Rediscovering the K-7

Exactly my thoughts too. I added quite a few thousand actuations to the K7 before replacing it with the K5 which allows practical TAV mode with its improved sensor. The new owner of the K7 happily shoots almost exclusively in the Kruger Park where there never seems to be a problem with light.

Re: PESO: Rediscovering the K-7

I shot more images with my K7 than any DSLR before or since, and at the time I was very happy with its performance. It was a step up from the K10D it replaced and much better than slide film for what I was doing back then. Not great above ISO 400 but I was delighted to be able to get good

Re: PESO Painted bird

That would require capture and manual handling of the birds. A permanent marking is ringing. Birds of prey are ringed in the nest if I remember correctly. A paint ball would be very strange, why would a sane person shoot paint balls at a kestrel? Kestrels like to sit on top of poles etc. On Sat,

Re: PESO Painted bird

If researchers needed a temporary way of marking adult birds, something like a paint ball might work. It would be a lot less stressful for the bird than repeated captures to read the information on the leg band. Thinking about it though, capturing, marking with a non-toxic paint & releasing
