Might have to wait a little bit longer. I picked up my K-3 on Monday morning and I've been carrying it around since, shooting the usual suspects like my cats, teasels, leaves and trees, some hip-mounted street. Which is to say, nothing to show yet. Maybe a cat. Definitely maybe:) But, each outing I try another feature. This morning's dog walk I tested focus peaking in live view. _OMFG_. This rocks like a hurricane. This makes using the 50-135 in MF a dream. Well ever since I used focus peaking on my compact camera I wanted to have it in a DSLR. Don't have to sell me on that one:) I'm positively giddy atm. I'm scouting and preparing for a family portrait shoot on the weekend and I cannot wait to get out there.

Re: K-3 just keeps getting better
That's why I've bought the Pentax to Leica adapter and shooting happily with 50/1.2... /evil wink/ On Thu, Nov 21, 2013 at 5:54 PM, Bruce Walker bruce.wal...@gmail.com wrote: K-3 holdouts, maybe cover your eyes now.

This makes using the 50-135 in MF a dream. This particular feature is what set me on the focus stacking trail. I've always liked doing close up work. Focus peaking, combined with image stacking is a beautiful thing. I'm positively giddy atm. I'm scouting and preparing for a family portrait shoot on the weekend and I cannot wait to get out there. Just had to share. :-) I suspect Pentax is going to get a lot of free publicity out of us. This camera just doesn't seem to have any warts. bill -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
