TOUGEFC, wow, that really shows what the 77 can do from range. I'm guessing 20 - 30 mts. Great separation., a touch of of pixie dust and ....even mundane subjects can take on wondrous perspective

The range from me>subjects was actually around 10meters.

At first I planned to keep only one, but I ended up keeping both. They are too hard to let go

Thanks

I was sitting and sorting out pictures i took today with the FA 77. Did some mid distance, wide open shooting, just to put the lens through it paces.

I was quite impressed with this, not so artistic picture...

full picture, PP'd it to my taste.

140% crop. Some sharpening added to compensate downsize.

There's alot of detail in there for being wide open, look at the small particles thrown away by the sweep thingy!

You guys probably knew this.... im just impressed!

**rparmar** · 06-08-2011, 11:49 AM

This is probably illegal here since I am not using a Pentax camera. But I simply have to show off what the FA 77 Limited does on MFT.

Roisin session

More in the article FA 77 Limited on Olympus E-P1. And not to forget A Review of the Olympus E-P1 with FA 43 Limited.

These Limiteds simply shine on Micro Four Thirds. Pentax should redesign them for that format!
