K3 sample shots ... post here !

The K-3 is pulling more details out of my Sigma 500mm F/4.5. I got this wild Sharp-shinned Hawk I photographed from about 70 feet away. A friend of mine and I went back to the same spot and we agreed about the distance. The AA filter simulator was off and it looks like there was some slight moire on one of the feathers. I also used Lens Align to calibrate my lens and camera and I am very pleased with the details.

Hi, Andrew. Sharp-shinned Hawks get their name from their skinny legs which you can plainly see in your shot. This is a consistent difference among all ages, sexes and plumages compared to Cooper's Hawk. Great image!

I thought you'd taken a day off so I posted

By the way...I love the results with the Sigma 70-200, plenty sharp!
