Fantastic images Heinrich! I especially like the Bluebirds, Horned Lark and Cliff Swallows.
I have a quick question: what is the ISO values for the Cliff Swallow and the Horned Lark images?
I use my K-7 for birding, and am considering finally upgrading to the K-5, but I wish to get more an idea of the improvement in IQ at the higher ISO values sometimes needed while birding. Thanks, and again, excellent work!

Thank you Justin, the Horned Lark was shot at iso 640 and the Cliff Swallows at iso 1600. (exif is intact) I never shot the K7 so I don't know but coming from the K20 there is a huge difference in high iso performance.

Take care,
