Now that I have sold all my best lenses (bar a couple) ready for a swap to either a Sony A7R IV or Canon R5 I have decided to keep the K-1 for the time being :banghead: It may not be a speed demon, fashionable or have a monster sensor but I love the output and enjoy using it.

I'm having a macro phase atm ... Sigma 180mm f/3.5 DG EX along with a Canon MT-E24EX twin macro light

Remember when the K-1 Launched and everyone was excited about all the bokeh... (I find myself shooting a lot of ƒ8 and even smaller apertures :P )

Wide open, on my hands and knees on the front step...

Teriffic composition and colors. The image pulls me in.

Great macro. It might be too late to say, but next K-1 is propably going to be even better, so good to stay with what one is used to. I also like output from my K-1, even if it is slowish.

At least I kept the most important lens ... 150-450mm and 1.4x
