With the approaching release of the K-1, and seeing the HD FA 24-70/2.8 post by Paul Stenquist, and reviewing the enormity of size of FF lens, I set out to survey the smaller sensor sizes APS-c and Micro 4/3. I decided that Pentax has waited too long, for me at least, to release a full frame.

Long story short I cancelled my K-1 and ordered a K-3 II. I have a collection of lens that will work either way. I ordered a HD DA 35 2.8 with which Larry Colen has produced many beautiful photographs. Also a HD DA 100. Should be here tomorrow and soon I should post a pic from my K-3 II, the first in a long time. I think the K-3 II is an awesome camera especially compared to my K20d and Kx. I intend to go for the best APS-c specific lens and avoid the larger full frames. There are a lot of good HD DA lens.

Just in case it isn't awesome I have a Lumix Gx8. I just have to get my tired, lazy ass out and start shooting. We will be entering the festival season with Festival International and Jazz Fest approaching and others.

I hope this is the catalyst for rehabilitation from numerous health issues the last couple of years. I'm excited.

I have a lot to sell once I figure out what I want to keep. I think it will pay for most of this upgrade. The group will get a heads up.
