With Sigma 30 1.4.

With my K-3 I usually need to set my exposure to -1 as it consistently overexposes by a whole step... haven't had that happen with any other Pentax body.

Australia. It's a Banksia - probably B. serrata. Here's one with the K-3 + DFA 100.

The genus was named for Joseph Banks, the botanist on HMS Endeavour, which sailed up the east coast of Australia in 1770 under the command of James Cook. Banks later became President of the Royal Society, and was a lion of British science for half a century. He was also instrumental in the British government's decision to establish a penal colony in New South Wales and the foundation of Sydney.

The Banksia genus has about 170 species, all indigenous to Australia. Show one to an Australian abroad and even the hardiest of them will weep with homesickness!

Thanks for identifying it for me. It appears to be a large shrub or even a tree. Interesting story about Banks, too.

Interesting comment. I also set my K3 to underexpose.
K20D also needed adjustment for me particularly with the DA16-45mm lens, but in he opposite direction.

Indeed... with the K20D and especially the K10D I always have had to set the exposure to +.3 to +1...
The K-S1 is the camera that has always nailed exposure, of the ones I've had.
