Cool!

Maybe now we will finally be able to get an explanation of how you use
it with a heavy lens mounted on it. ;-)

Great.   I have one of those old Russian turret finders that I thought  
might be useful on a K-01 but then I got a K-5 at a good price so the  
turret finder stays in the cupboard...


I notice you have the F50 1.7 on the camera.  I have one of those and  
I really need to use it a bit more often.  I've become a bit zoom-lazy

Hope your daughter enjoys the camera.

By the way, I meant to ask earlier - hope you and your family/friends  
were unaffected by the recent typhoons.

intriguing - does the top of the body protrude into the viewfinder?

me too — it sounded like the Manila area has had a horrible time

The image of the statue (IMGP0109-640) is intriguing. The alignment is 
perfect. It's almost there. But it needs just a little more space on the 
right so it doesn't crop the tip of the sword.

Not at all, the top of the K-01 is flat.

We were safe and mostly dry-thank you all for the thought.  Although
worse than the 2009 episode (that was a typhoon, this was
just...well...rain...) the country was a bit more prepared than the
last time but still a lot did suffer. :-|

The limits of zooming with your feet when over 50 :-D
