No more tests! just pictures

Here is one that I exposed on manual 4+ steps underexposed to capture the colour of the sun.
The raw image was black with a red spot showing.
A bit of work in LR 5.7 produces an acceptable image (well I think so!)
The K-5 is OK, isn't it.

The K5 and its ilk are fantastic for pulling up shadows for sure!

KatPal,the poster of those pictures doesn't seem to have been active on the Forums for a couple of years so I did a bit of digging. He did post others taken with a Sigma 10-20 f4/5.6 (also a 17-70)so they might have been taken with one of those lenses?

The K5 is still a great camera, just became to bulky for most of my purposes....
