Paul, do you have any photos where Grace is sliding down the hmmm, I
don't know how this thing is called - when you climb up and then slide
down to the ground? I'd like to see that K-5 manages to AFC (new English
word?!) mid-motion?

The sun warmed things up a bit this afternoon so Grace and I went to the
park. I shot a number of action pics. The K-5 seemed to be able to lock
in good focus on 7 to 8 tries out of 10. That's considerably better than
the K-7, which was somewhat better than the K20D. It didn't nail every
shot perfectly -- some included pretty violent motion right at the
camera -- but it never left me in the lurch. It always locked in.
Results for spot and continuous were similar. Perhaps a slightly higher
percentage of misses with continuous. But operator error comes into play
here as well, and the sample is still relatively small. But I'm pleased.
The first eight pics in this folder are from today. All are action,
except the one of Grace sitting on the rail. A noteworthy achievement:
she tried to sled down the astroturf hill standing up. First time.
Almost made it.
