Hi,
I took this camera for 200 USD from an used shop as a back-up K-mount camera for my main
K5IIs. Luckily, It was in a pretty good condition. I have been shooting with this camera for birthday events, low light snaps etc.. Last summer, I covered almost all of my shots with K-x + DA 35mm F2.4 during my trip to Tokyo Disneyland. This little camera produced some clean and wonderful images in the night when I was roaming around near the Disney castles.
With the right combination of prime lens, this camera can not be beaten in IQ. The JPEGs are clean even in ISO 1600 and pleasant to eyes.
Now, with my DA 40mm F2.8 Limited lens, It became even lighter and easy to carry anywhere camera.
My preferred lenses to use with this camera are :
SMC FA 35-80mm F4-5.6 ( @F=7 onwards, produces amazing JPEG colors)
SMC DA L 35mm F2.4 (for log light street snaps)
SMC DA 40mm F2.8 Ltd (for family portraits)
SMC Takumar 55mm F1.8 (Produces "warm" images)
I highly recommend this camera as a main body or a back-up body DSLR.
Cheers,
Senthil |
