The squirrel and the butterfly shots were all taken with the Promaster on the K-x, and the rest were shot with the K20D and A-50/1.7. I wasn't crazy about that Promaster when I first got it, but it's starting to grow on me. I think the smartest thing I did was taking the damned skylight filter off of it. -- Walt On 4/3/2012 5:04 PM, Jack Davis wrote: > These are impressively sharp..and well rendered. > Walt, if you have the time and don't mind, please identify which of these > were taken with the Promaster. > > Thanks, much! > > Jack > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Walt Gilbert<ldott...@gmail.com> > To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List<pdml@pdml.net> > Cc: > Sent: Tuesday, April 3, 2012 7:02 AM > Subject: GESO: Photowalk from 4/02 > > Hi all, > > Just wanted to share these photos from yesterday.
