Took the K-7 out to the zoo on Sunday!

All these are taken at 400 ISO with the DA*60-250mm at F6.3 with pre-production firmware believed to be 0.35 (camera menu shows firmware to be 0.00!) in JPEG no extra PP except cropping.

Wow! Phenomenal... DA*60-250mm will definitely go into my "really want badly, and mayyyybe I can actually get it" list :-D

cheers

$3000 if you buy the above "kit".

Fantastic shots... Great job... But, I think that I'll just worry about getting better with what I have for now.

Kguru · 06-10-2009, 08:59 AM

Agreed ... Phenomenal !!

Crops that sharp? I'll be damned..

looks great. 60-250 seems a nice lens. too bad imo they didnt let it go all the way to 300. and then instead move the start up from 60 to 80-90. maybe they didnt want it to kill the 300 f4

Three simple answers: DA*16-50, DA*60-250, and a super tele. Quite the lineup!

I'd say it's 90% Photographer and the rest equipment. Nice work.

I think you may be slighting the photographer a bit.
