Hi Bob, Thanks, I use my A50/1.2 quite a lot with the K-x, I have two favoured "lite" kits, A24/2.8 + A50/1.2 and DA35/2.8 Macro + FA77/1.8LTD. I hope Boris is enjoying his A50/1.2 as I have enjoyed mine over the last 20 years+ ;-) I actually always shoot RAW+ and have the jpg set at 2MP, I find that I don't need much more and if I do it's always better going back to the RAW file in any case, the buffer on the K-x has not been even a slight hindrance to me. The following link is a crop out of one of the RAW files from the pano set to show you how much detail would be available should I decide that the pano deserves further attention. http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~aglcnews/temp/IMGX01743.jpg On 19/05/2010, eckinator <eckina...@gmail.com> wrote: > whoa... impressive...

Thanks Bruce, it nearly didn't happen, I made one failed attempt, screwed up the manual exposure somehow, really under then I gave it another go, spot on. I just wish it were a little better levelled, it sort of puts me off working further with it, though I could potentially shoot it again (more leisurely from the docks next time).

Well done. Glad you appreciated the shot, that's what it's all about, thanks. On 19/05/2010, Christian Skofteland <pterali...@aim.com> wrote: > Nice pano (as usual), Rob.

Thanks Christian, if you checked the 1:1 crop up this reply a little you'll see the amount of detail captured, it's quite impressive for a crappy little Pentax camera ;-) Guess it's my turn soon, we've met on my turf three times I think?
