Very nice pictures, sharp lens! I have tried using a manual focus lens, M50 f1.7 but my eyes are not good enough anymore to get sharp focus

I have to cheat and use the live view zoom a lot on fast speeds.

Post Your K-30 Photos Here

This camera has been an excellent companion, I owned a K-X before, but the K-30 really took my skills to the next level, I'm not that solvent to keep my old camera as I upgrade, and since I already bought a K-S2 (delivery scheduled to this Wednesday), my white K-30 is going to a good friend at a fair price.


Here are some of my favorites:

(info on the lens used attached)

Sigma 17-50 f2.8


Sigma 18-200 f3.5


Sigma 18-200 f3.5


Sigma 17-50 f2.8


Sigma 17-50 f2.8


Sigma 17-50 f2.8


Sigma 17-50 f2.8


Pentax F 50 f1.7


Sigma 17-50 f2.8


Pentax F 50 f1.7


Sigma 18-200 f3.5


Pentax DA 35 f2.4

Great photographs! I really like these very much, and they cover a wide range of subjects/venues. Enjoy the new camera, and I hope the pixie dust (with good advice and examples) encourages the buyer of this one.

Thanks Jacquot, djb47 and Kjphilippona, I edited the post with the info of the lens used in each photo. The Sigma 17-50 f2.4 is a great great lens, VERY sharp, well, I don't have experience with Pentax limited whatsoever, but I LOVE that sigma.

The Sigma is a f/2.8 right, not f/2.4

Took the hummingbird bird shots this evening, cloud cover. Used a old Takumar F2.5 135mm. The other two are with a Helios 44m-4
