Really nice - great intensity captured here.

Not the most exciting subject but another good example of how the lens renders out of focus backgrounds I think...

Love the bokeh this lens produces even @ F5.6Attachment 157116

The bokeh is nice but, I was immediately drawn to the eyes. Well done.

Thanks! Would have been nice to capture that in the wild but zoos do make for good practice...

In "Post your medium format photos" I posted some images of old Norwegian churces (https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/pentax-medium-format-645-6x7-645d/87027-p...ml#post2254482) taken with the S-M-C Takumar 67 75mm F4.5 on the Pentax 6x7 in black-and-white. For the sake of comparison, I post a couple of colour images taken with the DA* 16-50 F2.8 on the K20D.

The old church in Gaupne, Western Norway (built 1647)

Urnes stave church built around 1130-40 - one of the oldest of its kind and still stands at its original location. The northern portal is from an older church built on the same spot around 1060-70

Nice shots!

Not really the point I know, but how do you feel the K20D photos compare against the 6x7 shots technically?
