A Wild City
Posted By: Kerrowdown, 05-05-2016, 11:56 AM

Another quick grab shot from today, the resolving power of this K1 is amazing, I can still read the text on information board (on the original DNG).

Nice shot. Congratulate with your new K-1. :-) ( My self owned the Pentax K-2, the successor of K-1, already back in 1975)

Don't suppose jealousy would do me any good now? Oh well, better the camera belongs to someone who knows what to do with it. Congrats Kerrowdown.

Don't be jealous, just go get yourself one.

I don't know about that, there's some pretty fancy controls on this, for an old manual dog like me.

So much so, I've got most of them turned off, especially as I don't need all the fancy autofocus and levels malarky.

Thanks, I called this post "Wild City" because that's the first line title on that information board.
