Hi Boris.
Thanks much. A 77 1.8 would be too short for this kind of shooting. I
was close at 135 for the tight stuff. In addition, given the focus
challenges, I don't think I'd want to go to a bigger aperture than the
2.8. I've tried
I shot 333 frames, probably half are technically keepers. Of course
some of those have lousy expressions or other aesthetic problems. The
total misses are soft from too much movement at slow shutter speeds or
have overexposed areas from concentrated spotlights.

Most convincing... Paul, indeed, given your mastery of K-7, it makes
all the sense for me to try to reach your level instead of
infinitely upgrading in (false) hope that gear will solve all the
equations in the world ;-).
I wonder if a faster lens, say FA 77/1.8 could yield more
interesting (purely technically) results... As for captured emotions
- you're the man...
A question though - how many exposures did you make?

Most are at ISO 5000, a few are at 3200. Most are at f2.8, a few
are at f4.
All were shot with the K7 and DA* 50-135/2.8.
