This was from a spur of the moment shoot my father and I did on memorial day at a family picnic. I put the full image in my gallery. Let me know what you think. This crop is of the models left eye.

Thank you.! It is kind of an odd photo. I was just amazed at level of detail I got from my K50 and 50-135 combo.

I recently had a similar selfie - in the eye of a bird, yet.

Sounds so cool! You should have entered yours in the contest. What camera lens combo did you use

**Canada_Rockies** · 07-12-2016, 01:46 PM

K-3, DA 55-300.
It's in my user gallery, but it is not as clear as your shot.

K3 is my next purchase. I love my K50 and K30 but there is enough of an improvement to make my life easier in post production. Not having 2 card slots kind of scares me when I am shooting a wedding. I have never had a sd card fail but I had rather be safe and have a backup as I shoot.

I use both slots. RAW to 1 and JPG to 2. Keeps the storage size down when the K-3 is using one of my 3 DA lenses, but I have the PEF if one of the images needs work. I can certainly see that in a wedding situation I would do exactly as you are doing and double save everything. The Takumar and the M's need RAW most of the time.
