Yesterday, around sunset, I went out to do a few chores. Everything in my garden was glowing. I realized I'd never tried my smc FA 77 on my K-70, so why not try it now?

I was astounded by how good the FA 77 was on the K-70; how fast and accurate the focus was even in questionable light and how good the images were SOOC.

My dear wife used to call the 77 our magic lens. She told me, I just point it and trip the shutter and it make a picture that looks as if I planned it that way! Jocelyn passed away almost two years ago, but I still have the 77, and you are inspiring me to put it on the K-1 and shoot a few flowers today.

She'll be part of the magic when it finds you.

Went for a walk a few days ago with the FA 77 limited. The road in front of my house isn't very busy -- probably a vehicle passes every ten or fifteen minutes, so not exactly street photography, but still a little bit of interest along the way.

Love the photo of this little girl. There is a freshness of the captured beauty, innocence, and intelligence that is breathtaking. I think she will love to see this photo when she is an adult. Great use of the amigo!
