Tess is taking some folks out canoe camping after my rotator cuff flared up , preventing me from going. I wanted to send the 55-300 PLM as lithweigtht compact telephoto so I tried a few test shots on the K-1.
Not bad at all. Some slight vignetting in some corners but not at all what I was expecting.
Wide open at 55mm, almost no vignetting.
By the time you crop for this little fellow, no problem at all at 300mm. A bit more vignetting in the corners but a least a 30 MP image after cropping.
The K-1 and 28-105 plus the DA 55-300 combo will probably be our tripping combo going forward. On canoe trips, size and weight are at a premium.
