I made a promise... · Posted by Duplo, 08-03-2009, 05:22 PM

When writing my field report on the K-7 and that was to post some images once I had them uploaded, well I guess it is about time for me to actually stand by what I said and post some images

This post will contain a few images, I originally intended to keep it to one per lens and let the gallery do the rest, but that is darn difficult.

Anyway, the images posted below and sorted by lens are some of the images I personally like or find acceptable, as are the ones in the gallery linked to below.
This is just my personal selection from the trip and related to my clients picks from the much more extensive client gallery.

The FA43:

DA21:

DA*60-250:

As mentioend above there is a somewhat larger collection of images at the link below, however those are a Nikon and Pentax mix, so the brand sensitive folks should probably not click it

Thanks Thomas.
Simply superb shots....and may I ask, with the greatest respect, would you have expected any better from any other camera?

Wonderful shots, thanks for showing! I really like the colours of these shots. I'm very fond of the colour and DR of my K10D at ISO 100 - do you think the K-7 is able to match that?

spectacular shots. all beautiful. like the first shot with colors on iceberg

Your web site is amazing, thank you for posting. Although It looks way to damn cold! Someday I would love to take some time up in your neck of the woods. In the meantime I have a workshop to prepare for in Utah, I don't anticipate we will be seeing any icebergs.

Always look forward to your work.

John

That is an impossible question to answer, when asked so openly

Thanks for liking the images first of all.
I was too in the past, and yes I actually like the K-7 better at base ISO than the K10D and K-m, but my recommendation would be to try it out for yourself.

Thank you John.
Appreciate your kind words on my web site and images.

It actually is fairly decent up there during summer

I arrived in Moab, UT today, definitely no icebergs around as far as i can see

Have a great workshop.

I finally held a K-7 yesterday, and that experience (what a compact package - and that smooth shutter sound!) and your comment doesn't help me when I try to tell myself that my limited budget should be spent on lenses first

I was equally impressed by the build quality of the 18-55 WR - makes some of the other kit lenses on the market feel like disposable plastic cups.

Awsome shots
