The other day, I made a last-minute decision in the late afternoon to use some free time to take in a quick hike on a local nature trail. I grabbed my K-5 II with the already mounted lens - an M 50/1.4. At the last moment, I also pocketed my M 100/2.8, 'just in case'. It's a lightweight lens with plenty of sharpness and character, and it's easy to carry. Halfway into my hike, I encountered a mature White-tailed deer - a buck. Of course, the 50/1.4 was not quite long enough, but I quickly swapped the M 100, reset the focus fine adjustment on the K-5, and proceeded to capture a series of pictures. Here are two of them.

Excellent shots

Some great images with the M's, as usual!
This was taken while walking down Main Street earlier this month - the market had just opened that morning.

The M 200mm is a beastly sharp lens just minorly stopped down. Really would recommend it to anyone.

Great composition! I wish you posted it in color too; I am under impression M50/1.7 has the most vivid colors of all my lenses.

I'm off to go find out how the m28 2.8 does in harsh outdoor lighting. I have not purchased filters or a hood for this lens yet. I expect a bit of flare... hopefully not 13 pieces or more.
