PESO: Focus Override

Like most Pentax lenses, the 150-450 allows manual override of autofocus, with just a simple turn of the focus ring. That sometimes proves very valuable when shooting birds in trees of bushes, as they are frequently tucked in behind branches that make autofocus very difficult. I shot this bird y

This is more of a technical experiment than anything else, though I tried to pick a reasonable subject. This is a 26 image stack of pixel shifted images. It totaled out at 3.5 or so GB of data that the machine had to mow through. One minor annoyance, Lightroom happily imports these files, but
