pinholecam has a very evenly sharp and good looking shot using the K-1 and Samyang 14mm in the K-1 in Singapore thread, FWIW.

Also - pls folks, no need to post 7000 x 4000 pixel images directly into forum posts. It kills the page layout in many browsers. 1000px wide will do fine.

I imagine it'll make a awesome landscape lens, and I'm still considering buying one myself. I just not sure I'd recommend it for stars/milkyway type shots, but then again I don't have one and just judging from a few shots I have seen with the lens via 3rd party. The picture by Pinholecam is very nice indeed.

Quick snap of my neighbor's dog Kimber using the A 70-210 @ 210mm and resized to 8 1/2 x 11 (full height).

So, after starting the "Will you be shooting at 36MP thread" I've since bought one and went out today to finally take some proper outdoor pictures!
I don't have any particularly good lenses yet, so everything so far's been done with the 35mm DA L F2.4 AL and the smc Pentax-DA L 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6AL WR that was bundled with my K-50.

Also using a Tiffen circular polarizer and some post in Lightroom.

And this one with Pixel Shift Resolution:

More to come soon!

Interesting shot here, i tested also the autofocus tracking, not every shot were on focus but many are tack on it

Absolutely nothing done on the dng, just converted to jpeg

I was looking for a 50 1.8 example. Thank you!

It is amazing to find out that even the DA 35 can really perform well using the K-1.

May I request to please do the same for the DA 21?

Thank you

The DA 21 vignettes badly, as might be expected. See PENTAX K-1 Laboratory | PENTAX K-1 Special site | RICOH IMAGING

You can also check for the performance of many DA lenses in this topic: https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/54-pentax-lens-articles/31629-da-lenses-f...ts-thread.html

Since nobody reads that topic, or doesn't want to sift through 30 pages, I'll just leave this tidbit here too:

...Regarding the DA 10-17 at 14mm. It has been previously confirmed that the lens covers full-frame at this focal length, but it has another surprise. Look at these two images shot from a stationary tripod, SR off:

The top image is from the Pentax-F Fisheye 17-28mm at 17mm, it's widest setting. This lens is a 180 diagonal fisheye at 17mm, same as the 10-17 is to an APS-C camera at 10mm.
The bottom image comes from the DA 10-17 at 14mm! It has a dramatically larger field of view than the 17-28.

The difference even holds up when both lenses are focused to infinity. Anyone wanting an ultra-wide for their K-1 would do well to hold onto their 10-17.

wed7 · 05-03-2016, 08:59 PM

Thank you for the links Paul,

It is really nice that the DA 35 is spared of being unusable. ('Tis could be a reason to push a K-1...next year)

Wow thanks for sharing!!!

Manual focus is a breeze with the OVF. Actually i am enjoying it much more than with the K3 + S type screen
Zeiss 25

FA*85 - manual focus (Dead AF for my lens)
