Same here. Try to always have it on me.

Spawn looks good, his armor/suit blends in well with the rocks kind of like satanic brimstone camouflage.

And you get a night shot with 01 standard prime too.

Nice work! Amazing depth of field at f/4.

Thanks (to the other people who liked it too, my most popular Q short so far I think). The Q is good for night shots, where I generally want everything in focus anyway.

I shoot too many formats, so I try to convert everything to a standard format (my K5) in my head, so in this case I think of it as f/16. (I know it's not exact, but there's no need for it to be.)

Which actually makes the Q 01 the most down-stoppable (that's a word, right?) standard lens Pentax has made. (f/8 on the 01 standard prime would be f/32 on the FA31 on the K5 (f/22 max), f/45 on a 50 on small format (usually f/22 max), and about f/75 on 645, where they still have f/22 max on the standard lens, and it's starting to look a little silly.)

I got a little close with my SMC-M 135 f3.5 some moss, dried leaves and with my DA 35 f2.4 a drop

I was especially taken with 'Kids Descending' JMF! To prove that everyone needs parking, the next shot (plus a few more from today)

I love DoMatcha green tea in the morning (keeps me alert and creative) so this pic is a tribute of sorts.

Nice! Very sharp where it needs to be. Serious hardware going on there!

LeRolls · 11-22-2012, 05:37 PM

Shots in the bathroom with the prime and fish eye. Cologne collection.

Nice pics Crewl1 and LeRolls.
@Crewl1: did you have to paint the inside of Fotodiox adapter to get better IQ?

**crewl1** · 11-23-2012, 01:32 AM

@kyuuan - yes, it allows me to use some lenses I couldn't otherwise.

I discussed it a bit in the thread 'the reach of the q'
