Again many very nice shots, congratulations!
I find the macros really impressive, but what I like the most is the "Passenger seat photography" - excellent composition and rhythm, well done!

Recently I tried some more Pentax 110 lenses - the 18 and 50 mm. I decided to use them for indoor, low light portraits of my family. Here is my wife and you can find pics of my daughters on my blog - you are very welcome to visit it and perhaps you will find some interesting stuff there, as I try to write about mirrorless photography and equipment.

Thank you :-)
I must say that these Pentax 110 lenses make a fine combination with the Q - they're small, quite fast and good-lookin' ;-)

Our local boat landing with 02 lens and Billy Bunny taunting the dogs from outside the fence-fotodiox m42 adapter with a Vivitar 250mm 4.5 missing diaphragm.

Well done, was it on a tripod?

Thanks Tom,
The bunny was done with tripod but without the remote and I'm sure that affected the focus. Still working on a support for 135 SMC Takumar and 135 Mamiya Sekor and the Q.

The Q came Thursday, the Fotodiox adapter and no name gimbal the next two days so here's that setup with a Sears 135/2.8 and a couple of my better results so far. Had I known I was going to buy a Q a while back I would have kept the Takumar bayonet 135/2.5 I had for a while, it was super sharp, but to short for the K-30.

Thanks Michelek. I've wanted to photograph that spot for ages but always been driving.

Snoqualmie Pass, Washington. Shot with the 02 zoom while hanging out the window at 55 mph (as the passenger of course =). Edited in Silver Efex pro 2.

Excellent! The 02 strikes again.

Hey Tom, it is looking good - I like the white Q/135/gimbal shot. The gimbal will come in handy for the longer work.
Test shots are showing promise.
I'm not familiar with the lens but suggest you test at base ISO 125, then play with the aperture to see how far you can go.
5.6 may be the the best compromise. Does it have a hood?

Very cool! Q - how are you getting your images into the iPad for editing, and do you think this can work OK with a mini?
