Last Good Friday, I shot my first wedding. Unfortunately, I shot most of the photos using non-Pentax gear. However, my assistant and long time Lumix LX5 point and shoot user helped me. I gave her for the first time my K5 with the FA50mmf1.4 (sorry for the error on the labeling, I called it f2.8, it should be f1.4) lens set in AV mode, at f/5.6 and 400 ISO (I think). My instructions were, please shoot close ups with this camera whenever you can. I taught her how to press the shutter half-way, then shoot. Apparently she focussed, moved a bit and shot. SO, most of the photos were out of focus. However, some are OK. These photos were shot by her, using a DSLR K5 for the first time.
I think she did a great job (even when shooting people while they were looking at my camera, not hers). In one of the photos, she focussed on me (the photographer). For comparison purposes only, I included two photos taken with Sigma and Canon gear. If posting the last two photos is not allowed, please let me know and I will delete them. I appreciate any constructive comment. THanks, Pepe.
